Joe Giudice is not going to experience freedom until he released from prison on March 14, 2019, but in the meantime, he has found a way to keep himself occupied and healthy! His brother-in-law Joe Gorga gave a surprising update on Giudice while speaking with Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live.

The 45-year-old reality star will be a shell of himself when he gets out if he maintains his weight loss transformation, as Gorga revealed he lost 45 pounds!

She also did yoga, lifted weights, and used fitness DVDs. And she expects Joe to do the same! "I can’t wait for him to come home. I said, ‘You’re not coming home until you have abs,’” she previously joked to People.
