From the producers of "The Bachelor" comes a groundbreaking new dating competition series, "More to Love," which features a bachelor who will pick from a gaggle of plus-sized gals -- and ET was first on the set!
All this week, ET is with the anorexic, 58-pound MELISSA DeHART as she faces the uphill battle towards recovery. Tonight, we're with an emotional Melissa as she checks into a Florida treatment clinic.
Last week, the one-time TV reporter, with plus-sized supermodel EMME by her side, flew to New York to meet with DR. IRA SACKER, a world-renowned, eating-disorders specialist who is the co-author of Dying to be Thin: Understanding and Defeating Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia -- A Practical, Life-Saving Guide and the founder of H.E.E.D. (Helping End Eating Disorders). The ET cameras were allowed a rare look into the private session to see how the doctor and a therapist confronted Melissa, trying to get her to face her anger and get her into a Florida recovery program. The intervention was brutal, but honest.

MELISSA DeHART's 11-year battle as a 58-pound anorexic has touched many people since her story first appeared on ET, and served as a wake-up call to others. The road to her recovery began anew when we shared with her the more than 3,000 letters that ET viewers wrote to her via e-mail. Now, Melissa is taking the next step to help herself.

On Thursday, ET introduced you to MELISSA DeHART, the 58-pound, former newscaster who is struggling with anorexia and bulimia. Now, plus-sized supermodel EMME is sitting down with Melissa to try to help her change her perception that being skinny equals success.
"Sometimes I'll look at myself on a cover and I'll say, 'I didn't have that color of hair!' 'You know, that's a little brighter.' 'I had a zit on my face'; 'Oh, it's gone,'" Emme tells Melissa about airbrushing and other deceptive practices on magazine covers.
