YAHOO! NEWS – Donald Trump’s Health and Human Services Secretary RFK Jr. revealed the scale of the president’s apparent weight loss on Thursday night, claiming the fast-food fiend recently dropped 30 pounds.
Chatting alongside Fox host Sean Hannity in the second part of an interview that aired Tuesday night, Kennedy peddled more questionable medical theories regarding a deadly measles outbreak along the Texas-New Mexico border, while gossiping about the secrets behind the president’s efforts to slim down.
“You do work for a boss,” Hannity told Kennedy as the pair sat in a Florida Steak ’n Shake, a fast-food restaurant chain.
“Although he is getting healthier,” Hannity added.
Kennedy said he had met with Trump “yesterday” and said, “I think he’s lost 30 pounds.”
Hannity said Trump “looks great” and claimed the secret to his weight loss was taking the buns off his burgers.
“If he has a burger now, he usually doesn’t have it with a bun,” Hannity asserted.
Kennedy claimed he was unaware that Trump was deliberately making efforts to change his diet.
“We did talk about it, I hope I’m not revealing something I shouldn’t,” Hannity continued.
Trump has not spoken publicly of his weight goals, though in January 2024 Trump told Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade that he had lost 20 pounds, claiming it came “the hard way: I work.”
“I have been so busy. I haven’t been able to eat very much. I’m not able to sit down and eat like a person like you. You can sit down and eat. Me, it’s a little bit tougher,” Trump said.
The president is not exactly known for his healthy diet choices …

A look inside Melania Trump’s healthy diet and her desire to “improve” Donald Trump’s eating habits
HOLA – A new report claims that Melania has partnered up with Robert F. Kennedy to monitor Donald Trump’s diet, and try their best to improve it.
“RFK Jr. and Melania are ‘ganging up’ on the President-elect to eat in a more healthy way,” said an insider to Page Six. “Think fewer Big Macs and less KFC, and more lean protein, salad and veggies for energy and to improve his overall well-being.”
RFK has been a key figure in Trump’s presidential campaign and is his pick to serve as the head of the Department of Health and Human Services. According to his initial proposals, he’ll oppose processed foods and hopes to ban them from school lunches.
In the case of Melania, she’s been cooking more often and hoping that way Trump will eat healthier meals. “Melania has, on occasion, been cooking family dinners at Trump Tower for the president and their son, Barron,” said the source.
“She’s also encouraging him to make healthier choices.”
