The nurse asks Philip if he can ask a few questions. Philip never asks the nurse any questions, nor does the nurse answer any.
The nurse does say: "I've never seen a man with a stomach virus and a black eye". But this is not because Philip has a black eye, but this does not indicate that the nurse is examining Philip's eyes.
This is true. The nurse says to Philip "I'm just going to take your blood pressure". "Check" and "take" share a similar meaning in this context.
The nurse says nothing to Philip about removing his clothes.
The nurse says: "If you could step on this scale, we'll check your weight" and then tells Philip he weighs "one hundred seventy-three pounds". A "scale" is the device used to measure one's weight. The term "heavy" describes something with a lot of mass.

What is Candy describing?
Although "a pound" is a monetary unit in England (1 pound sterling), in the US a "pound" is a measurement of weight. Candy is referring to a very large, heavy steak, and not a very expensive steak.
When Candy mentions a "30-pound all-beef steak", she is referring first to the weight, and then to the composition of a steak (a cut of beef). In English, we often use compound adjectives to describe something in detail, particularly when indicating a quantifiable figure or number. Specifically, this steak weighs 30 pounds ("pounds" are a unit of weight measurement in the US: 1 pound = 0.45 kg) and is made of 100% pure beef (without other additives or meat).
Candy is referring to a cut of meat, and not a weather pattern.
Candy is referring to a very large cut of meat, and not a not a prize-winning or award-winning steak.

An "optimistic" person is hopeful, positive or confident. Donna would be unlikely to say to her listeners "don't give up hope" (meaning "stay hopeful") if she were convinced that they are already optimistic about finding love.
Donna wonders if some of her listeners can't find the right person to share their life with, or have trouble meeting people in general. It is fair to say that she is referring to "lonely" people when she says this. A "lonely" person doesn't have friends or partners and feels alone and isolated.
A "sleepy" person is very tired, or might fall asleep at any moment. Although Donna mentions that her service can make dreams come true, she never specifies "sleepy" people in her audience.
Donna speculates that some of her listeners are "fat" or "heavy" and are "sitting around eating ice cream". She is convinced that her service, "the Love Connection" hotline, is ideal for these people. The terms "fat" and "heavy" are synonymous with each other. Note that "heavy" is more polite than "fat".
