Back in November, Jelly Roll chatted with “Extra’s” Alecia Davis on the red carpet at the 58th Annual CMA Awards, where he showed off his more than 100-lb. weight loss.

“I feel great,” he told Davis. “I feel so good. I’m 100 lbs. lighter than I was on this carpet, over 100 lbs., I just don’t know the exact number, maybe 120, than I was on this carpet last year.”

The singer insisted, “I feel great, and I’m gonna come back 100 lbs. lighter next year, and I’m gonna keep working on it. Man, I’m having the time of my life. I didn’t want to do it in the dark. I’ve been such an honest person through all this journey, I wanted to address my struggle with obesity honestly and in front of everybody.”

Jelly Roll added, “Most people would have went and hid and tried to lose the weight. I was just like, ‘They see it happening, let’s talk about it.’ I hope it inspires other big people, man, that we can change, that it’s possible.”
