Sixteen participants will receive the opportunity to reinvent themselves from the inside out over the course of 12 weeks with the help of Kardashian -- who wrote Strong Looks Better Naked after a drastic physical transformation -- her glam squad, stylists, and some of the best fitness and nutrition experts in the world.

"I was always overweight as a kid. If I was stressed out or sad, I would eat," Kardashian, 32, said in a statement. "So, I had to learn how to then put all of my energy into something positive and healthy for me, which how I fell in love with working out."

E! had announced its pickup of Revenge Body last December. In each of the eight, one-hour episodes, men and women who have been dumped, are trying to mend relationships or are facing other challenges will attempt to overcome their body issues, build confidence and obtain the ultimate revenge.

From a man who gained weight after being dumped by his ex to a couple who both packed on weight during their relationship, participants will tackle what's holding them back and, at the request of Kardashian, turn their "haters into their biggest motivators."

Once the participants reveal their final and best version of themselves, they will confront those who have doubted them.

On Wednesday, November 23 at 9PM ET/PT, E! will air a special 30-minute preview episode of Revenge Body with Khloe Kardashian.

The new series is being produced by Khlomoney Entertainment, Rogue Atlas Productions in association with Lionsgate Television, and Ryan Seacrest Productions. Kardashian, Ryan Seacrest, Eli Frankel, and Larissa Matsson are serving as executive producers
