SPECIAL COMPANION PIECE EDITION OF "EXTREME WEIGHT LOSS" - "LOVE CAN'T WEIGHT" -- CONTINUES JULY 7 ON ABC

Chris Powell Transforms the Groom and Heidi Powell Transforms the Bride; With David Tutera (Planning), Rocco DiSpirito (Catering) and "Duff" Goldman (Cakes) as the "Wedding Dream Team"

NASCAR Great Greg Biffle Guest Stars

In the current season of the hit series "Extreme Weight Loss," there are three special companion piece editions -- "Love Can't Weight" -- in which hosts and trainers Chris and Heidi Powell help three obese couples get in shape, both physically and emotionally, for each of their weddings. The couples spend their first three months together at boot camp, and then they are unexpectedly separated for the next three months -- not able to see each other until their wedding day! "Extreme Weight Loss: Love Can't Weight" will continue on TUESDAY, JULY 7 (9:00-11:00 p.m., ET/PT) on the ABC Television Network. This is the final episode this season for LCW.

This LCW episode features Bryce & Amber (Garden Grove & Buena Park, CA), who met through online dating and quickly fell in love. Their quirky personalities, willingness to be silly and love of food brought them together. Amber's diet is 100% fast food, and Bryce is always looking for his next meal. It is their dream to become married and celebrate their new life together... trim and healthy. Their full bio is posted at ABC.com.

Featured as each couple's "Wedding Dream Team" are David Tutera ("David Tutera's CELEBrations" on WE tv) who plans the wedding; Rocco DiSpirito ("Extreme Weight Loss" Healthy Food Coach and bestselling author of "Cook Your Butt Off!") who caters the wedding; and "Duff" Goldman (owner of Charm City Cakes and Food Network star) who designs the wedding decadence. Also in this episode, NASCAR great Greg Biffle (winner of championships in both the Nationwide Series and the Camping World Truck Series) guest stars.

For the LCW special companion piece editions, the format consists of two phases: (1) participants will spend the first 90 days of boot camp at the University of Colorado Anschutz Health and Wellness Center in Aurora, CO, to hit their three month goals and learn to work better as a team; (2) they will then spend three months apart, working separately to reach their individual goal weights and learn how to exist independent from each other. At the renowned University of Colorado Anschutz Health and Wellness Center in Aurora, CO, Chris and Heidi, along with CU Anschutz Health and Wellness Center Medical Director and CU School of Medicine Associate Professor Holly Wyatt, MD, will guide participants on their journeys to safely lose up to half their body weight, as well as the emotional baggage that often holds one back. The CU Anschutz Health and Wellness Center offers some of the country's most advanced research and science-based expertise, focusing on a comprehensive weight loss and weight loss management approach, including fitness, nutrition and wellness services.

Separately, "Extreme Weight Loss: Destination Boot Camp" - where people work with some of the top medical experts from the show, was recently launched at the CU Anschutz Health and Wellness Center, which operates the program.

"Extreme Weight Loss: Love Can't Weight" is produced by 3 Ball Entertainment. JD Roth, Todd A. Nelson, Matt Assmus and Brant Pinvidic are the executive producers.
