Country star Colt Ford's advice to Jelly Roll after dropping 150 pounds
Fox News
Country music singer Colt Ford shared that he and Jelly Roll discussed what it feels like losing weight in the public eye and how difficult it can be when known as the "big guys."
"Jelly has lost a bunch of weight," Ford told the outlet. "You start to think when you're a big guy like that and people love you, 'What if I lose weight? Are they going to still like me?' And I'm like, 'No, bro. I thought that for so long. No, no, no. As long as you're who you are, and you're authentic and good to people, s---, they don't care.'" "You start to think when you're a big guy like that and people love you, 'What if I lose weight? Are they going to still like me?'" Lori Bashian is an entertainment production assistant for Fox News Digital.
Ford, who once weighed 340 pounds, began his health journey in 2022, after he was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis, an autoimmune disease that causes muscle weakness, dropping to 250 pounds.
