Jelly Roll has been steadily losing weight since 2022 - and he's not slowing down his progress anytime soon. The country star (real name is Jason DeFord) has candidly discussed his weight for nearly a decade. In 2015, he weighed more than 500 pounds, revealing in a 2018 Instagram post that he was once advised by a doctor to visit a "meat processor or truck stop" to find out his actual weight because typical scales only reached 500 lbs. "It was one of the most embarrassing days of my life," Jelly Roll recalled at the time.
