Jelly Roll Acknowledges Setback, Recommits to NYC Marathon Training

His public reset underscores that long-term weight change is an ongoing process with setbacks.

Overview

  • Jelly Roll, in a YouTube vlog posted Friday, said he had “lost [his] way” after holiday indulgence and a broken collarbone from an ATV accident.
  • He filmed a weigh‑in on April 10 that showed 276.2 pounds, about 12 pounds above his pre‑holiday number after weeks of avoiding the scale.
  • The singer is back on a plan to run the New York City Marathon in November 2026, with a hired coach and a recent week totaling 16 miles.
  • He is targeting another 40 to 50 pounds of weight loss toward a maintenance range and voiced a stretch goal to pose shirtless on a major magazine cover.
  • As context, he previously shed roughly 275 pounds and credits therapy, a nutritionist (Ian Larios), and steady cardio, saying he tried GLP‑1 medication only for two weeks early on.
