Sep 2016

and it has been reported--even in his own books--that he is 6 foot 2, not 6 foot 3--clearly the "doctor" wanted to make sure his BMI did not put him into the "obese" category, from merely overweight. If you do the calculation, he makes it--just barely if he is 6'3.

And as one who has had to struggle with weight loss and weight maintenance throughout life, I am definitely not fat shaming.
