Jelly Roll is on a weight loss mission, and he explained his whole thought process recently on “Jimmy Kimmel Live”.

Jimmy asked him how much weight he had lost already and Jelly said…

“Approaching the 200-pound mark. I would guess that I have lost an entire Jimmy Kimmel.”

When asked what the secret is, Jelly responded…

“I’ve been thinking about ways to make it sound cool, but I can’t. I’m eating a lot of protein and vegetables and walking. That’s what I’m doing.”

Jimmy then asked him if he had a goal weight.

“I do have a number in mind . . . To do all the fun stuff in life you have to be under 250. I want to skydive, I want to ride a rollercoaster, I want to ride a bull, I want to wrestle an alligator. I got a list of things that I want to do.”

It’s been so inspiring watching Jelly on this journey. And once he reaches the 250-pound mark, be prepared for the best content ever. You think Jelly is funny now? Wait till there’s video of him skydiving!

In more Jelly Roll news, he had a great set, full of huge guest stars, at Stagecoach.

But the best part might have been the billboards on the way in.
