Jelly Roll has lost 200 pounds with help from health coach Gary Brecka. Jelly Roll reached out to Brecka when he weighed over 500 pounds and was so heavy he had to sleep wedged with pillows to avoid suffocating if he rolled onto his back. He said he went to bed every night fearing he might not wake up and could hear himself wheezing when he stopped at traffic lights. Brecka put him on a 10-week plan that included daily cold plunging and a ten-thousand-step challenge. Roll also trained for and completed a 5K race in May. The singer worked with other trainers and coaches as well, including Brigham Buhler.. Jelly Roll has been open about his weight loss journey, saying he lost the weight publicly because he wanted to be honest about his struggles. He started at around 540 pounds and has now lost 200 pounds. His next goal is to appear on the cover of Men’s Health magazine by March 2026. Check out health coach Gary Brecka below talking about what he did and how he worked with Jelly Roll on the “Bussin’ With The Boys” podcast.
