Who knew Slick Willie was fat at one time?
From Men's Health article on overweight Presidents.
Bill Clinton
42nd President (1993-2001)
230 pounds, BMI 28.3
"The good news is, my husband loves to eat and enjoys it," Hillary Clinton told The New York Times in 1992. "The bad news is, he loves to eat, even when things are not always right for him." President Clinton's diet included everything from cheeseburgers and ribs to McDonald's and Kool-Aid. He tried making some healthy changes during his presidency, adding soy burgers, salmon, and stir fry vegetables to the White House menu. But in just 2 years, between 1997 and 1999, he plumped up by 18 pounds, according to his personal physician.
Things went from bad to worse. In 2004, the 58-year-old Clinton had quadruple bypass surgery. A heart stent replacement followed in 2010. Inspired by surgeon and heart health expert Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, who recommends not eating "anything with a mother or a face," Clinton became a strict vegan. As he told CNN's Wolf Blitzer in 2010, "I went on essentially a plant-based diet. I live on beans, legumes, vegetables, and fruits." He also drinks a protein shake with almond milk every morning, and avoids all meat, dairy, and eggs. The former president claims he lost 30 pounds on the diet, and today weighs what he did in high school.

Bill Clinton's weight problems are as well known as his extra marital affairs.
