Jelly has been smashing goals since embarking on his weight loss journey in 2022, having lost almost 200 lbs. He made significant progress during his Beautifully Broken tour in 2024, thanks to a change in lifestyle that differed from previous years. "It's cool because there was once a time in life that the culture I built on tour was the opposite," he told People.

"It revolved around alcohol and drugs. And now our tour culture is around good eating and around exercising and doing emotional check-ins with our crew every day." He also had a personal chef on tour who would cook him nutritious meals, as well as a personal trainer to encourage his progress.

The 40-year-old has has avoided using GLP-1 medications like Ozempic to lose weight due to the risk factors. "I just was afraid of it...As a singer, few things scare me more than acid reflux. You'll watch me get up out of a bed, I'll burp and wake up panicked, and go take something for it. You know? Because that stuff will just rip the vocal cords," he explained.

Jelly's new dream is to be on the cover of Men's Health by March 2026, as an indication of how far he has come on the journey. "That's my new goal. I want to have one of the biggest transformations," he said on his wife's podcast, Dumb Blonde, in December 2024. The father of two added that he was open about his transformation in order to inspire others who might be finding it difficult to take the first step.

"I want to be honest about my struggles with [my health] with people," he shared. "I wore it for so long. I think that people [who] become as big as I became, when they lose the weight, they're kind of ashamed…I wanted to lose it in front of everybody. I wanted to talk about it."
