In a recent interview with People, the country star Jelly Roll opened up about his remarkable journey towards better health. He revealed that this year alone, he has managed to shed an astonishing 110 pounds. A significant portion of this weight, estimated to be between 60 to 70 pounds, was lost during his ongoing Beautifully Broken Tour. As he explained to the outlet, the battle was primarily with food addiction, a struggle he had faced for the past 39 years. "The hard part was changing the way I've looked at food. I've never had a healthy relationship with it," he continued. But once he committed to discipline and made that first step, it was like an avalanche. That little snowball of change started rolling and kept gaining momentum.
Long-Term Openness to Health and Exercise
Jelly Roll has always been transparent about his health and exercise journey. Just under a month before this interview, he achieved a significant milestone by surpassing his 100-pound weight loss goal. He did this by incorporating walking, basketball, and boxing into his daily routine while on the road. Before that, he completed his first 5K race in April. At that time, he had already lost 70 pounds. And in this interview with People, he made it clear that his journey is far from over. "I hope I continue to lose this weight," he said. "Nobody in my house has had a healthy relationship with food, so fighting that demon and getting into discipline was the tough part initially."Progress in Career Alongside Fitness
This year has been a year of great strides for Jelly Roll in his career as well. In October, he achieved a remarkable feat by nabbing his first-ever No. 1 album with "Beautifully Broken." After the end of his tour, he will be joining Post Malone on a North American stadium trek that is set to kick off in April. Additionally, Jelly Roll recently received two new Grammy nominations - best country song and best country solo performance for "I Am Not Okay." These nominations are a testament to his talent and hard work in the music industry.Impact of Discipline on Life
The discipline Jelly Roll has shown in his fitness journey has had a profound impact on his life. It has not only helped him shed pounds but has also given him a newfound sense of confidence and purpose. As he looks ahead, he is determined to continue on this path and inspire others to do the same. His story is a reminder that with dedication and hard work, anything is possible. Whether it's in the realm of fitness or career, Jelly Roll is proving that one can achieve great things by staying committed and focused.
