Chris Powell, trainer for Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition<\/p><\/div>\n

From the producers of Biggest Loser<\/a><\/strong> and MasterChef comes a new weight loss reality TV show, Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition. The season premiere will air at 10p.m. May 30, followed by subsequent episodes\u00a0every Monday on ABC.<\/p>\n

Each episode will chronicle the journey of one of eight participants in a non-competitive attempt at\u00a0life-changing\u00a0weight loss.\u00a0All of the participants are\u00a0approximately 225 percent above\u00a0their ideal weight<\/a><\/strong> or are roughly 200 pounds overweight.\u00a0They will spend 365 days gaining\u00a0a new approach to what many call an unmanageable life. Trainer Chris Powell<\/a><\/strong> will work one-on-one with each contestant by going into\u00a0their home\u00a0and facilitating an appropriate diet and exercise regimen for the\u00a0individual. A large emphasis will be placed on healthy weight loss in order to accomplish long-term results.\u00a0With an unorthodox approach, Powell will interact intensively with each participant for 12 months. At the end of it\u00a0all, viewers will\u00a0share\u00a0the joy of physical\u00a0and emotional\u00a0transformation through extreme weight loss on-screen with the participants.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Also working with the participants to cover diet and nutrition are Paulette Lambert and the California Health and Longevity Institute<\/a><\/strong> (click to see our interview). A registered dietitian, Lambert and her team will introduce the participants to the way they should be eating, and help them understood how to make food choices, and follow a balanced, low-calorie diet.<\/p>\n

Featured on Oprah, 20\/20, The View, the Today Show\u00a0and The Doctors for his astonishing results with 650 pound virgin David Smith<\/a><\/strong>, Powell is known for working with\u00a0“motivation and grace” according to the Exreme\u00a0Makeover: Weight Loss Edition facebook page.<\/p>\n

Different from NBC’s Biggest Loser because it’s not competitive and the Style Network’s Ruby<\/a><\/strong> because it chronicles eight different individuals, Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition\u00a0is hoping to be a\u00a0big hit for reality TV.<\/p>\n

Weight loss is a hot topic as the obesity rates continue to cripple Americans but skeptics are wary of yet another <\/em>weight loss reality show. What do you think? Does Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition have the capacity to be hot or not?<\/p>\n
