The White House have announced Donald Trump's weight as part of a medical report on the US President - and it has left people shocked.
Trump underwent his annual physical exam - something which, contrary to some belief, is not mandatory for US Presidents - last Friday.
The 78-year-old's doctor, Navy Capt. Sean Barbabella, confirmed that Trump is 'fully fit' to continue serving as the 47th President of the United States.

He also cited the President's 'active lifestyle' that 'continues to contribute significantly' to his ongoing health.
Trump is renowned to be an active and avid golf player, making regular trips to play the sport alongside friends, celebrities and journalists during both of his stints as President.
The businessman owns 15 courses across the States and worldwide.

A Huffington Post study published in March noted that Trump had spent 18 out of his first 69 days as President playing golf, as well as nine trips to his Mar-a-Lago result by the beginning of April.
He was also spotted playing golf last week amid a stock market collapse following his tariffs announcement.
And a 2019 report by the Government Accountability Office noted that each of four studied visits to the resort during his first Presidency totalled a staggering $3.4 million, meaning a huge cost to the American taxpayers.
Trump's golf escapades have contributed significantly to his new weight, which now stands at 224lbs - a reduction of 20lbs from his previously measured weight of 244lbs.
Speaking on Friday, the White House's Press Secretary Karoline Levitt told reporters: "He is undergoing quite a few tests and imaging.

"It's a yearly physical, so there's quite a lot that goes into it to make sure that the President is accomplishing all of his goals.
"I can confirm that the President is in very good shape, as you have seen."
