Fox's new reality show about a man trying to find love in a sea of beautiful women is a lot like The Bachelor....only, err, bigger.

More to Love, which premieres Tuesday July 28th at 9 p.m., documents Luke Conley in his search for larger than life love. The catch is that Luke, along with all 20 contestants, are a little more than average size and damn proud of it.

"This is a dating show that sends the right message about embracing and loving yourself no matter your shape or size," said executive producer Mike Fleiss, who also created The Bachelor. "When you are comfortable with your own body, you can really allow yourself to be open to the possibility of finding the right person to love."

Luke is a 26-year-old subcontractor and real estate investor from Santa Maria, CA. Standing 6'3" and weighing over 300 pounds, Luke says that his ideal woman is "intelligent, passionate, down-to-earth, full-figured and comfortable in her own skin," according to Fox.

The show will be hosted by plus-size supermodel and television personality Emme.
