Jelly Roll Under 300 Pounds First Time Since Middle School Plans Surgery

Country rocker Jelly Roll, who has struggled with weight since childhood, is nearing a major milestone in his weight loss journey, aiming to weigh under 300 pounds for the first time since middle school as he prepares to compete in a WWE SummerSlam match. Having lost nearly 200 pounds from a peak of 540 pounds through diet, exercise, and running, Jelly Roll has adopted a serious fitness regimen including working with a personal trainer and participating in 5K races. He plans to undergo surgery to remove excess skin, which he says is necessary for improving his daily functions rather than for aesthetic reasons. Motivated by his desire to live a long, healthy life for his family and to see his children grow, Jelly Roll has also set ambitious goals to appear on the cover of Men's Health magazine by 2026 and to do a shirtless cover in 2027. His wife, Bunnie Xo, has supported him throughout the process, even joining him on her own weight-loss journey. Fans have applauded his dedication and transformation, recognizing the significant personal effort and lifestyle changes he has made.
