Jelly Roll gets brutally honest about health setback: 'Lost my way'
Jelly Roll is getting back up on the horse after a brief break in his health journey.
Born Jason Bradley Deford, Jelly Roll has admitted that he’s “lost” his “way” during his weight loss journey and has been “avoiding the scale” out of fear. The lyricist-turned-country-notable, who previously shed an astonishing 275 lbs. (125 kgs), opened up about the setbacks that followed in a YouTube vlog published April 18
Reflecting on the past few months, the Grammy-candidate explained how hitting a major milestone — appearing on the cover of Men’s Health magazine — right before the holidays led him to loosen the reins. “I was approval, 'You know what man, I’ve been working hard for the last three years losing this weight, I’m going to enjoy the holidays,'” he shared. That meant indulging in big meals across Thanksgiving, his birthday, and Christmas.
But things took a tougher turn when he broke his collarbone at the end of last year, which forced him to stop running and exercising altogether.
“I have, to some degree, lost my way,” Jelly Roll admitted, adding that he’s been “avoiding the scale” because he’s “scared” that the number he sees is going to disappoint him.
