Jelly Roll's Shocking Transformation: From 500 Pounds to Marathon Runner

In an interview with Fox, The “Need a Favor” singer shared that he has already lost 50 to 75 pounds and aims to run a 13.1-mile race next year. Jelly Roll, 39, completed his first 5K on May 7 at the Rose Bowl, inspired by Bert Kreischer and Tom Segura’s 2 Bears 5K challenge.

He plans to participate in more 5Ks before tackling the half-marathon next fall. In 2018, he revealed on Instagram that he weighed over 500 pounds in 2015 but lost 200 pounds on his health journey. Recently, his wife, Bunny Xo, shared that Jelly Roll took a social media break due to negative comments about his weight.
