LaPaglia also highlighted some of the physical changes she’s noticed since embarking on this journey. “The jeans are starting to fit around my thighs. They’re not baggy anymore. Double chin, coming back! I don’t know if that ever really left,” she joked, showcasing her signature humor and positivity.
