President Trump has gained 4 pounds since his medical exam last year despite advice from his former doctor to eat healthier and set up an exercise regimen.

Trump weighed in at 243 pounds during his annual physical Friday at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., his new physician, Dr. Sean Conley, said Thursday in a letter circulated by the White House.

At 6 feet, 3 inches tall, Trump's weight puts him in the category of "obese" under the body mass index. Trump's weight puts him in the same category as many people in the U.S., where nearly 40 percent of people are obese.

Conley revealed information about Trump's blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature, and said that he increased Trump's dosage of rosuvastatin, a cholesterol-lowering drug. The doctor also reported Trump's vaccinations were up to date.

Dr. Ronny Jackson was Trump's doctor last year and released a slew of information, taking questions from reporters for an hour. After being nominated as secretary of veterans affairs, anonymous rumors surfaced that he would drink on the job and improperly dispense medications. He denied the allegations but withdrew his name from the VA spot and worked in the general White House medical unit rather than caring directly for Trump. He recently was appointed as the president's chief medical adviser.

The White House did not immediately say whether Trump would have Conley take questions from reporters. No law obligates presidents to undergo such medical exams or to release information to the public. Conley specified in his letter on Trump's health that all information that was disclosed was under Trump's consent.
