jellyroll is known for his incredible voice, but right now it’s his weight loss progress that he’s praising.
“I’ve probably lost about 30 kilos,” Jelly, 39, revealed in an interview People published on Saturday April 13th. “I really struggled [but]Man.”
The country star then shared the workout routine he followed to lose weight.
“I run two to three miles a day, four to six days a week. I go to the sauna for 20 to 30 minutes and a cold bath for six minutes every day,” he revealed, adding that he has also changed his diet and is “eating healthy at the moment.”
While Jelly Roll is happy with the results he saw on the scale, he admits his health journey is far from over and he plans to keep up with his new lifestyle.
“I feel really good,” he opened. “I thought I was planning on losing another 100, 100 and something like that [pounds]. If I feel this good at this weight, I can only imagine how I will feel when I go on tour.”
Jelly Roll’s weight loss follows his previous announcement in January that he would be participating in the 2 Bears 5K on May 7. However, the Grammy nominee made it clear that he wasn’t trying to escape anyone in the process.
“I don’t know if ‘running’ will be the right word, but I’ll definitely do the 3.2 miles – probably a brisk power walk,” he previously told the publication in an interview in February. “My goal is to be able to do a 15-minute mile.”
Jelly (real name Jason Bradley DeFord) exclusively tells Us weekly last month that he focused on wellness before every concert. “I’ve been more focused on my health lately – so we also took some time beforehand to take a minute to breathe before the show,” he shared.
wife Bunny XO is there to support him on his weight loss journey. A source exclusively tells Us in February that the couple is stronger than ever. “Now they feel like they’ve overcome so much together,” the insider said, explaining that Jelly Roll and Bunnie “have an ‘us against the world’ mentality.”
The couple first met at one of his 2015 concerts in Las Vegas and tied the knot a year later. “Despite his recent success, Jelly Roll remains extremely humble,” the source added. “He’s having a blast and is so proud to show off his wife.”
