My prayer is that at least one person sees this and is inspired to do the same then pass it on. I’ve seen it done before by lesser known men but to see this man’s man pull it off should be the spark to set the wheels in motion for others. He whipped everybody’s ass including his own!

I look at butterbean and I can totally relate. I was over 400 pounds. 3 heart surgeries and even after that they gave me two years. That was enough to scare the living hell out of me. As of this moment. 13 years later. I'm down to 170 pounds. My waist went from over 50 in before. Today. A 32.. I was able to do this all on my own. My A1C is a 5.8 been off of insulin now for over two and a half years. I went from 17 different medications down to just one baby aspirin a day. You have to believe in yourself and find that inspiration to keep you going. Fasting is the true key to success.

That is awesome man! I went from 276lbs to being stuck at 237lbs for the last couple years. I suffer from gout and that has been real bad. I was given levofloxacin just 2 pills last week and that has put me in a wheelchair. I was giving up on life until this video.

And yes once when you get rid of the water the fat is the challenge especially the fat surrounds your vital organs. And trust me fasting does not damage your internal organs it helps them actually quite a bit. And if you're not eating food your body will continue to eat and it will eat all that fat and things that it doesn't need. Trust me it's not easy but it works. Best of luck

without a pro trainer there's only two things easy enough to follow. A resistance training to gain muscle. And some kind of low carb diet like carnivore diet. Maybe one meal a day. Starting each meal with some vegetable, then protein and fat, then carbs if at all. This hack causes much smaller insuline spike which is the cause of problems. Some carbs may be needed in the beginning because of the metabolic syndrome and lack of ability to use fat as fuel. The ability comes back tho once there's not enough sugars

As a 73 yr old who just had a hip replacement, I've watched Butterbean for years. I just love the good people around him who didn't let him give up, what angels these friends are. God bless them, and Butterbean.

[@timswanson8483]

Utterly amazing! Butterbean is an amazing human being as well as all of the people that stood behind him and supported him! I myself have been through hell clinically dead seven times. Quadruple bypass five back surgeries lost two toes 3rd of right foot and toe knuckle on left. I don't know how to quit. As I find myself in a very rough place now it's stories like this that make me keep going. I wish that I could have the money and the resources to train with Diamond Dallas Page in person to help me recover. Last year I had two 7-inch titanium rods and 14 screws put in my neck, and 7 months later had L2 and 3 disc removed and titanium cage rods and screws added. And from my heart attack in 2015 I am very weak on the left side of my body noticeably. And find it very hard to exercise and stretch. But stories like this give me the drive and hope that I will recover to a functional quality of life. I am able to walk and move and get around just not to the level I want to be. But I will get there and hope that I am able to be half the man that Butterbean is! I have the philosophy not why me! But try me!!!!!

DDP out here saving our childhood heroes. Protect this man at all costs.

[@T.C.-st8uz]

I love Eric. It was such an absolute pleasure to watch him box in the '90s and early '00s. And now, That warrior has taken himself straight out of the grave and fought his way back. Love that guy.

[@777dragonborn]

Butterbean was a human tank . His kos were amazing.

[@robhamilton4736]

Happy for the Bean. Proud of him not giving up. I am in a similar scenario. So he is a hell of an inspiration.

Seeing Butterbean smile is the best part of this video!

Wholesome comment

[@strat1960s]

I met DDP at FOB Marez (Mosule) Iraq. He invited me to check out one of his classes with the Army, but I had to work that evening. He seemed so genuine and I was just thrilled that he stopped to talk with me for a few minutes. Totally made my day. Who knew three months later I'd herniate C4 - C6 at Al Asad AB. LOL. If I didn't need DDPs class before I sure could have used it post surgery. DDP, thank you for taking the time to talk with me. It means so much to me and so many of our troops.

This man is a legend. Im so happy he was able to turn himself around, use to love watching Butterbean fight as a kid. Such a warm hearted , humble human being.

[@doodtheman2508]

I've always respected Butterbean for his attitude, wherein he fights to entertain the crowd first and to win second.

DDP making us grown men crying cause I'm crying here I watched Bagwell and Scotties stories and boy so much respect for Diamond Dallas

[@grizztough4091]

Good Job Butterbean!! full of life again... living life again... heart of a Champion!

[@markstrain9429]

I've been a follower of Butterbean's career and the challenges he throws at life. What a story. What determination. What inspiration. What wonderful support. If you believe you can do something you most likely will. Now to help those addicted to computer games to get outside and live their lives. The Evolution of Butterbean is a template for building self-confidence from any start point. This video made my day.

[@rmcellig]

I have terminal cancer. I face serious obstacles daily. It's all about attitude and a will to live. This video is a great example of making things happen. I have done this a few times while going through my cancer obstacles. Hats off to both butterbean and DDP for making this happen.!!

DDP … You are heaven sent man. Butterbean, a man who fought for his life. This was inspirational and tomorrow I will push my workout routine. Had a brotha tearing up watching this!

[@underdogoverland]

I had never seen Butterbean in a wheelchair, I had the image of him in Jackass absolutely demolishing Johnny Knoxville, so seeing him the way he WAS was a complete shock. Blessed to see him back in fighting shape, as strong as ever. Hell yeah DDP, thanks for bringing back our hero!

[@GregFries]

DDP is amazing. He's saving my childhood wrestler/fighter idols, one by one.

[@ericnormington4002]

He now has a bigger smile than the Sun. We wish him all the happiness and blessings on a full recovery. ❤

Looking for something to live for instead of waiting to die.... Prophetic. I pray Bean gets his quality of life back.

He's a legend with fighting spirit. Respect!

Been a HUGE BUTTERBEAN FAN since I was a fucking kid. Love this man and I’m so happy to see him having people to help him

[@exidy-yt]

I ain't gonna lie, tears are pouring down my face. I hated DDP back in the AWA and sneered when he became an actual wrestler, and then a top guy in WCW, but I absolutely love him now for what he has done for so many people. And especially for how he brought The Bean back from the edge of the grave to actually be in fighting trim again! I never would have believed it possible, and am beyond inspired. Thank you DDP and congrats Eric, you deserve this ressurection, you've sure as hell worked for it!

[@MrHavoc1001]

DDP is an amazing person. Just remember those "Characters" that they play, and not the actual person.

[@toddpeters9007]

Congratulations bean!! You done good ! DDP you done good !

If you hated DDP, he did his job as a heel. I like what he's done after wrestling though. I wish him the best..

[@medicatedforyoursafety9349]

I’m 47 too, disabled vet. 5 years into my total journey, 2 years adding exercise. 277-159, built back up to 172. I’ll give you the only rule you need to follow. Don’t quit, even if you’re not seeing results. The body is made in the kitchen! Eat right! Sugar is addictive! The government allows these additives as it lowers population and makes people dependent on big pharma! You’re worth it. NO ONE else will invest into you.
