Tonight, a new show will debut on ABC called “Extreme Makeover: Weight-Loss Edition.” The premise? To inspire Wally, a 26-year-old husband and father, to lose 110 pounds from his 490-pound frame over the course of three months. The prize? A family trip to the Walt Disney World Resort to celebrate his daughter’s second birthday.
To get him there, trainer Chris Powell will put this fast-food addict through intense workout regimens including a climb to the top of the Sears Tower in Chicago and a 100-mile bike ride.
Can he do it? Tune in to ABC, Monday at 10 p.m.
In the meantime, here’s a preview.

I love this show. It is great to see the transformation at the end of an hour-long episode.

If he needs an “extreme workout”, why not just give him the trip NOW, and let him walk around Epcot World Showcase, and DCA to Carsland and back, twice?

Good advice! A lap through World Showcase is a great way to burn calories (as long as it’s not time for the International Food & Wine Festival!).

SO adorable. I plan to take my son to Disneyland on his second birthday. I can’t wait.
