The 39-year-old hitmaker of “Somebody Save Me” is doing well, maintaining his favorite foods that power his on-tour performances while also getting healthier.

Under the direction of his personal chef, singer and rapper Jelly Roll recently shocked fans with his remarkable weight loss, signaling a sea change in his health path.

On October 21, Jelly Roll uploaded an Instagram video where his chef, Ian Larios, talked about the hard effort the musician is putting in behind the scenes of the “Beautifully Broken” tour.

Larios claims that in order to stay in shape while traveling, Jelly Roll has taken up sports like basketball, boxing, and even climbing the steps of each arena. The musician’s weight loss during this fitness journey was also disclosed by him.

“He just surpassed his 100-pound weight loss,” Larios revealed, commending the artist’s commitment. To complement his exercise routine, Jelly Roll has also adopted a specialized diet.

Jelly Roll enjoys one of his favorite pre-show munchies, according to Larios. The vocalist of “Best For Me” likes to nibble on sliced bananas covered in dark chocolate and honey.

According to Larios, the musician likes to eat high-protein foods like rice or potato flour-coated chicken breast after shows. His success has been largely attributed to these dietary adjustments.

According to Jelly Roll, who discussed his dedication in the film, “Next year when y’all see me, you won’t recognize me.” He was excited to advance his development, saying, “I’m going to get under a pile of weights in a way that I never had.”

Larios’ update about Jelly Roll quickly gained traction online, as fans flooded social media with messages of support. One follower commented, “So happy he’s beginning to take care of his body!! Love him and want him to live forever!!”

A second added, “ His passion is contagious. Good for him and his weight loss!” while another raved, “Can’t love this guy any more than I already do. !!!! He’s the real deal  [sic].” Another encouraged him, “Keep it up!! You’re doing great, one step at a time and you got this!”

Others pointed out the noticeable changes, “You look amazing. You’re absolutely killing it. I noticed a few weeks ago when I was watching a video how much you have thinned down you can tell it in your body and your face. Way to go Jelly keep it up .”

Along with the tremendous support from the fans, Larios has consistently commended Jelly Roll’s development during the tour. The musician has been “absolutely crushing” his health battle, he wrote on Instagram on September 16.

“The habits he’s been building are truly life changing and he’s doing this while also changing lives on this 56 city tour. Excited for him to show the world he’s just getting warmed up [sic]!” Larios shared.

Jelly Roll has made a sustained effort to maintain her health, going beyond simple diet and exercise while on tour. Another significant accomplishment for the “Whitsitt Chapel” artist was doing his first five-kilometer (5K) run back in May 2024.

Jelly Roll participated in the 2 Bears 5K, part of the “Netflix Is a Joke” comedy festival hosted by comedians Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer, and expressed his excitement after the event. “I couldn’t walk a mile when I started trying to do this back in January,” he recalled.

After the run, Jelly Roll talked passionately about the influence he and other larger participants had, mentioning how many individuals told him how they were motivated.

He also praised the event’s lively and diverse atmosphere, pointing out unusual attendees like a man wearing a bear suit and beer drinkers next to those setting personal records.

Jelly Roll revealed that he and Kreischer were emotional at the finish line, and that the event left him “really motivated” to continue his health quest. In addition, he acknowledged that he was “a little tired,” saying, “It was a little bit harder than I thought it was [going to be], but it’s awesome, man.”

Looking ahead, Jelly Roll said, “A half marathon next year!” “We’re saying it now, without a doubt!” Jelly Roll put in a lot of training before the 5K.

Jelly Roll revealed in April that he was exercising four to six days a week, covering two to three miles each day. Every day, he also included six minutes in a cold plunge and 20 to 30 minutes in the sauna. He said, “I’m probably down 70-something pounds,” in reference to his improvement.

Jelly Roll expressed confidence and his intention to lose even more weight. “If I feel this good down this weight, man, I can only imagine what I’m going to feel like by the time I go on tour,” he said.

Public worry over his health served as part of his motivation. After his wife, Bunnie XO, revealed that he had stopped using social media because of bullying about his weight, fans voiced concern.

Reflecting on this challenging period, the acclaimed musician shared, “I feel incredible. I’m surrounded by friends and family.”

Along with his own accomplishments this year, Jelly Roll is still a successful musician. He has already earned multiple awards from the iHeartRadio Music Awards and Country Music Television (CMT) Music Awards. Additionally, he was nominated for the Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards for the first time.

Fans of Jelly Roll’s music and health are still in awe of his transformation and are eagerly anticipating the next stage of his journey, supporting him at every turn.
