The Season 23 premiere of 'Little People, Big World' was packed with drama, awkwardness, and family conflict. However, as we saw in the first episode, it appears that Zach and Tori will be taking their kids into a battleground of sorts.

TLC released a new trailer that started with Zach and Jackson working out together and Tori cheering for them in the background. "If you set your mind at something, you can accomplish it," Zach says to his kids. He wants to accomplish everything no matter what. Zach also states that he does not want Jackson to be limited in his activities due to his height. Zach wants to set an example for his children by doing everything despite the circumstances and bodily limitations.

Following Zach and Jackson's workout, Zach heads to the gym to weigh himself in preparation for his "powerlifting competition," which requires Zach to be in a particular weight category. However, when he checks his weight, he discovers that it is 2 pounds heavier than required.



 

Zach calls his trainer David and asks, "How do you lose two pounds in 6 hours or 12 hours?" David tells him that he can only achieve the ideal weight by going on a fast, and stop eating entirely till it was time to weigh in at the competition. But it appears like Zach will have a difficult time as Tori has already prepared steak for dinner.

Tori had mentioned that the dish is one of the greatest steaks she's ever prepared, which makes Zach want to eat it. But, there's the matter of losing those last two pounds and the competition. Looks like Zach is going to starve himself in this episode, while Tori is going to have a lovely dinner.

'Little People, Big World' Season 23 airs a new episode every Tuesday at 9 PM ET/PT on TLC
