Jackson gave his most recent comment on his weight loss journey during his interview with People, and he shared how he maintained his physique two decades after the operation.
"If I really feel like I need to have a piece of candy, I have a small piece so that in my mind, I'm not saying, 'No, no, no,'" the record executive, who has $50 million net worth, said. "The more you deny yourself, the more you're going to go on a bender and have 18 candy bars without stopping at some point."

He also went through ups and downs over the past years, detailing in his 2008 book "Body With Soul" how he struggled with diabetes.
"It's a curse to be saddled with a disease that's life-threatening and that you can't completely get rid of, though you can certainly manage it," he continued. "But it's a blessing to get that huge wake-up call."
After a trip to the ER, Jackson reportedly decided to walk toward better health.
