Republican Governor Ron DeSantis says he is the top rumored candidate for the 2024 GOP nomination.

Many observers say that it is likely the case that DeSantis will be the chief rival of former President Trump. Fox News reports that DeSantis has revealed the real reason behind his recent weight loss; some are surprised by his answer. It turns out that the governor needed to cut a lot of sugar from his diet to reduce weight.

Governor DeSantis gave an interview with Piers Morgan of Fox News and stated that a big reason why he was able to drop a significant amount of weight recently is that he was able to cut out a lot of sugar from his diet.

DeSantis said: “At the end of the day, it’s like a New Year’s resolution. Just get back in the swing of things. I have the same thing. I’m a vet. I’m an athlete and a military veteran. And so, as governor, you can get caught up in many other things.”

The Governor continued by saying: “I’m on a good regimen and will keep it going. . . . I think sugar is the biggest issue because if you do sugar, your body burns sugar. If you don’t, it burns fat.”

Piers Morgan then joked with the governor about a recent rumor that he ate chocolate pudding with his bare hands. Morgan said: “Have you ever eaten a chocolate pudding with three fingers?”

DeSantis laughed and said: “I don’t remember ever doing that. I’m telling you, maybe when I was a kid.”

Former President Trump has referred to DeSantis as “fat” and “whiny,” according to a recent book by New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman. However, DeSantis is not bothered by these accusations or name-calling. He continues to work on himself and his physical appearance despite the critics.

DeSantis said the following about it:

“It’s interesting. There are many people when they go at you. Sometimes they have excellent ammunition. Like you’re a crook. You did this. You did that for me. So for me, they’re talking about pudding. Like, is that the best you got? Okay, bring it on.”

DeSantis went on to say that he does not eat pudding at all with his new diet. He said:

“No, it’s sugar, man. You can’t. You do these things. I don’t know. Maybe there’s sugar-free pudding. I got to look into that and figure out how we go from there.”

That has been his primary argument related to his weight loss.
