Brianna Chickenfry shared a healthy update with fans after previously admitting to losing a lot of weight amid her ‘toxic’ divorce from Zach Bryan.
Taking to TikTok on Friday, the 25-year-old content creator — who got a new tattoo ahead of one of Taylor Swift’s concerts in Vancouver — revealed that she has gained 11 pounds.
‘We have exciting news. I think I gained 10 pounds,” the social media star, whose legal name is Brianna LaPaglia, said in the video.
“And it’s great and it’s great because I’m hungry again. I’m eating. But I said, “B****. I know you haven’t eaten in a year, but maybe relax a little,” she said.
The Formula 1 extra revealed her weight had dropped back to what it was in high school a month ago, following her split from the country crooner.
To someone who might be seeing a post from her for the first time, LaPaglia explained, “If you’re confused, I’ve lost a lot of weight.”

In October, the influencer said she was “blindsided” by Bryan’s decision to publicly announce their split.
The already thin LaPaglia reported on the platform in November that she had lost 15 pounds and was currently the same weight she was at age 15.
The loss of her romantic relationship was compounded by her breakup with her best friend, Grace O’Malley, with whom she co-hosted the Plan Bri Uncut podcast.
In a performance on the BFFs podcastLaPaglia claimed that O’Malley “never defended me,” even though she was aware of the alleged emotional abuse she faced at the hands of Bryan.
“She knew everything behind the scenes,” LaPaglia claimed. “When the Internet started attacking me, they only lifted Grace up when they knocked me down. And it was, whatever, because it helped her career and she was fine and happy with it. But it got to the point where she never defended me again.”
LaPaglia explained her inner turmoil on Friday, saying, “It was a toxic, horrible, horrible situation. I went through it so much mentally that it felt like I couldn’t eat anymore and I became skin and bones.’
To gain the weight back quickly, the influencer said she turned to “sh**ty food,” including “pasta and fast food,” to pack on the pounds.
While talking about her success, the social media darling told her audience, “The jeans are starting to fit around my thighs. My thighs are no longer loose.’

To regain her weight, LaPaglia said she had to rely on “pasta and fast food,” and was relieved that her clothes fit her again. “It’s possible… that gaining weight isn’t a bad thing,” she claimed. ‘Sometimes it can be very good, and a sign that things are going well’
“Double chin, come back! I don’t know if that ever really went away,” she added.
‘These are things that make me happy, that make me feel good. It took me about three months to get my appetite back. And like I said, I literally feel like I’m hungry.”
Calming her fans’ fears about her fuller body, she said, “It’s possible this is happening and gaining weight isn’t a bad thing.”
‘Sometimes it can even be very good. And a very good sign that things are going well.’
