How to Make It
- The upcoming episode of “Extreme Weight Loss” Season 5, features the transformation efforts of two men: John (531 pounds, Baltimore, MD) and Dan, better known as “Panda“ (313 pounds, Grand Rapids, MI). One will set an “Extreme Weight Loss” record for losing the most weight by any cast member during the 90-day boot camp portion of the show. The other will be asked to leave when the effort to transform proves to be too much.
- John and Panda’s extremely different weight loss experiences will be documented on one episode of “Extreme Weight Loss,” airing TUESDAY, AUG. 11 (9:00-11:00 p.m., ET/PT) on ABC.
- John is a former pro football player and Army veteran who wants to lose weight before he meets the son he never knew he had. As a young man, John was praised for his large size and stature. However, his weight may have been a factor in the injuries that cut short his career with the Arena Football League. Today, John is a nurse in a Veteran’s Affairs (VA) hospital and is preparing to meet his 21-year-old son for the first time.
- Panda is a camp counselor of Korean descent who’s struggled to fit in with his adoptive American family. Growing up, Panda turned to food to help deal with being bullied at school for being both overweight and gay. His mission today, as a camp counselor, is to help children who also feel like outcasts.
- There will be two dramatic conclusions in this episode, as one of these two men will successfully complete his transformation journey, while the other will drop out early.
