DIXON, KENTUCKY: '1000-lb Best Friends' Season 3, Episode 3 is taking a slight shift from its usual Tuesday release schedule. Viewers will have to wait a little longer for the next look into the highs and lows of their favorite TLC stars as they pursue their weight loss journeys.

In place of '1000-lb Best Friends', '1000-lb Sisters' will air with two highly anticipated episodes, 'War and Peas' and 'I Candy-can’t.' While '1000-lb Sisters' shares the theme of weight loss struggles, its storyline offers a different angle. These upcoming episodes will follow Tammy Slaton’s difficult search for a new home, along with a family holiday gathering where the Slatons attempt to celebrate Christmas, despite ongoing family divides.
