Jelly Roll reveals he has lost 100 pounds: ‘You won’t recognize me’
Jelly Roll revealed that he recently surpassed his weight loss goal of losing 50 pounds.
Earlier this week, the country star, 39, opened up about his physical transformation in an Instagram video as he detailed his diet and grueling workout routine ahead of his Beautifully Broken Tour.
To slim down, the two-time Grammy nominee has turned to boxing, basketball and walking arenas.
“That’s why you won’t recognize me next year,” he said. “I’m going to get under a pile of weights in a way I’ve never done before.”
He continued, “When I see you in front of Canada in March, you all won’t recognize me.”

In the same recording, the Son of a Sinner hitmaker’s chef Ian Larios noted that his client’s favorite pre-show snack is a banana topped with Manuka honey, stevia and dark chocolate shavings.
After his performance, Jelly enjoys Nashville hot chicken, which the nutritionist made healthier by “taking out the oil and batter.”
The chicken is then served with fries coated in bone broth, which “increases the protein in it, but also gives it a nice crunch, because we air fry it.”
“So it tricks your brain into thinking this is like that nice, greasy fried hot chicken from Nashville. He will feel like he is eating at home,” he added. ‘It’s healthy. It’s air fried. It’s packed with protein and helps keep him on track.”
Larios raved: “That 100-pound weight loss goal from last tour is huge.”
In April, the singer – whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord – admitted he had “really kicked ass” in his weight loss mission.
‘I’ve probably lost 70 kilos. I really laughed my ass off, man. I do two to three miles a day, four to six days a week. I spend 20 to 30 minutes in the sauna every day, including six minutes in a cold dip. I eat healthy now,” he told People.
The Save Me star went on to say that while he’s already feeling “really good” about the weight loss, he still planned to lose “another 100, 100 and then some.” [pounds].’

“If I feel this good at this weight, man, I can only imagine how I’m going to feel by the time I go on tour,” he predicted.
Jelly is touring the country on the Beautifully Broken Tour with Warren Zeiders and Alexandra Kay, which kicked off in August.
The tour takes him across the US until October 27, when he plays the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Over the past year, Jelly also credits his healthier mindset to his wife Bunnie XO (also known as Alyssa DeFord), who encouraged him all the time.

The couple first met at one of his concerts in Las Vegas in 2015, and tied the knot the following year with his two children side by side.
Jelly is also a proud dad to daughter Bailee, 15, and son Noah, seven, who are both from previous relationships.
