Trump said he doesn't 'have time to lose weight' after Dr. Oz advised him he was too heavy

Donald Trump doesn't have time to lose weight despite advice from Dr. Mehmet Oz, who endorsed him in the Pennsylvania Senate race.

Can you believe I weigh over 200 pounds? In a video posted on social media, Trump told a crowd that maybe a little more was on the way.

I said I didn't have time to lose weight.

It's not clear what event the former president was speaking at when he made the comments. He was talking after his rally in North Carolina.

Trump discussed his weight on Dr. Oz's show before he became president.

The doctor noted that Trump had a high body mass index at 6 foot 3 and 236 pounds.

Oz told him that it was close to 30 which was a barrier for most people.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a body mass index of 30 or over is considered to be obese.

Trump agreed that he wanted to lose 15-20 pounds, but said it was difficult because of his lifestyle.

The former president does not drink coffee or alcohol, but he does like fast-food and ice cream.

In his endorsement statement last week, Trump praised Oz for being popular, respected, and smart, while referencing his previous comments about his weight.

He said that I was in extraordinary health, which made me like him even more, although he said I should lose a couple of pounds.
