Suplee has been open about his struggles with weight throughout his career. His decision to embark on a journey towards a healthier lifestyle was both inspiring and commendable, capturing the attention of fans.

He recently took to his Instagram account to share a before and after photo of himself, visibly flaunting his 294 lbs weight loss. In the snap, a shirtless Suplee posed in front of a mirror, flexing his arm muscles and flaunting his toned torso.

The side-by-side comparison shared by the actor vividly displayed the extent of his transformation. The throwback photo, dating back to his earlier years, served as a poignant reminder of the challenges he has surmounted to become what he is.

"I am aware of change as much as I am aware of the sun rising and setting," he wrote in the caption. "What shapes how we change? Is it some divine force, our environment, the chemistry within the meat sacks we use to navigate this mortal plane?"

"'The only constant in life is change' - Heraclitus," Suplee added. "Change is guaranteed, whether active or passive, is up to me."

The actor's fans have flooded the comment section of his post with messages of admiration and support. Many praised Suplee for his resilience and perseverance, noting that he "inspires" them.

"Ethan, I just would like to say thank you for sharing your journey," a fan began. "You have directly inspired me to take my health back, and so far, I've lost around 120lbs and went from 40%+ body fat down to 15% currently. You don't know how much your story has impacted mine. Nothing but love dude."

Another fan said, "You're a true motivation. I'm 60 down and loving my life, your story found me and was a big part of me starting and doing it right the first time!"

One fan noted that Suplee "inspired" him to "drop 50 pounds," adding that it was the "best shape" he's been in "for a long time."

"Wow! Congratulations! You look amazing! You look like a different person. Keep it up, you're killing it," a fourth fan penned.

In an interview with the Daily Star, Suplee candidly discussed the challenges of dealing with excess skin, shedding light on another aspect of his remarkable transformation.

"I lost nearly 300lbs and I have not seen any instance of anybody losing that much weight and not having loose skin. I don't believe there's a single identifiable person who's done that," he shared.

"Skin is an organ, when it grows it's elastic so that we can store fat. For women, they're extra elastic around their abdomen for if they get pregnant, and if it's only stretched out for a short period of time it goes back," Suplee continued.

He added, "Once [the skin] grows to this new larger size, the idea of something taking it away is like saying, 'I want to diet off my pinky finger.' It's an organ. Fasting doesn't take away excess skin, oils, and lotions and UV lights don't take it away. It's got to be cut off."

As Suplee continues to captivate fans with his awe-inspiring transformation and journey towards a healthier lifestyle, he recently revealed another layer of his story, sharing a shocking incident in which he "ripped his side open" in an accident after losing a staggering 300 pounds, per the Daily Star.

According to the news outlet, the "Wolf of Wall Street" actor suffered the grisly accident after going under the knife to have excess skin removed, brandishing it a "total nightmare."

"That's brutal, it's not fun. I had an accident where I fell down a hill while I was recovering from this, and tore open my side," he shared.

"Everything that could go wrong with this, for me, went wrong. Then the other problem is, they can't ever take all of it. I still have some loose skin. But I don't have the gigantic flaps of excess skin now – they've taken the majority away," Suplee added.

He went on to reveal that the procedure caused "a fantastic amount of scars" and "loose skin," but he's "okay with it."
