Jelly Roll Doesn’t Do “Cheat Meals”
Jelly Roll keeps it real when he talks about his health journey, especially his relationship with food.
I’m sure you’re familiar with the concept of a “cheat meal”, when you take a break from your diet and eat whatever you want.
Well, Jelly can’t have one of those.
He says the moment he lets himself have a treat, it could turn into a five-day food bender. It recently happened to him.
“I was feeling myself stress-eating and then, what else happened was the addict in me came out.”
The trigger, he said, was a “dairy-free skillet cookie” offered at a concert venue.
“I don’t eat nothing like that. I’m like a drug addict. You can’t eat that ‘cause if I ate one, I’ll eat two. I’ll eat four. So later that night, I’m at the taco truck getting a peanut butter fluff. Next thing I know, we’re at the rest stop, I’m looking for a chocolate bar.”
Jelly’s stadium tour with Post Malone continues, as they get ready for the Europe leg in 3 weeks.
