His breakthrough performance as a young football player in Disney’s Remember the Titans (2000) with Denzel Washington garnered him critical acclaim and led to two other roles opposite Washington in director Nick Cassavetes‘ thriller, John Q (2002), and Tony Scott’s Unstoppable (2010).

“No great thing is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig, I answer that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen.” - Epictetus Success takes time, patience and perseverance. Keep up the good fight all those that are struggling to remain on their journey to whatever their version of success is.

Beautifully told. Thank you for sharing.

This guy has cracked the code. He has integrated his shadow self into his higher self and has begun the journey to self- mastery. The goal in life is wholeness, not perfection.

48:06 I feel like this is the basis on which parents can sit with their kids to understand them as opposed to shaming them. I may be wrong here, but people tend to avoid relationships with anyone who makes them feel guilty. It was good to get to know Ethan.

Great interview. Ethan is so humble about himself.

[@marijusofficial]

It takes will,determination,guilt,effort to lose weight.I have lost nearly 10 kg in 2 months,Ethan Supalee has a point on how weight could change your life.

[@dreamingrightnow1174]

I think he uses the word "guilt" when he means several different things, especially shame or remorse or even insight. Guilt can be (and most often is) attached to misperception. Remorse is acknowledging a true perception and accepting responsibility.

I have always wanted to say this The greatest result I had was from a spell caster... I separated from her because she cheated and did it often, Later on I saw a post on KZbin of somebody's testimony on how she changed the mind of her ex in order to stop being unfaithful... I reckoned and chatted Baba Agana up on Whatsapp He did everything for me free without requesting for a token... Great! Right now am happily settled with Grace my wife, Harley and Jason our children.... Thanks Baba...

His humility helps him in my opinion.

[@gabehill1462]

Lewis, great interview but I’m sad at how much you laughed at Ethan when he told the story about the golf cart. He was sharing a vulnerable story and your uncomfortable chuckling was awkward and difficult to watch. Not good.

[@balzoemg8415]

For me it would take NO effort to gain weight

[@sooparticular]

hhhaaaaaaa exactly!!!!

[@justgivemethetruth]

3:32 - What is harder to do gain the weight or lose the weight. Yeah, I don't think I've ever heard a more stupid and irrelevant question in an interview. He is still a pretty massive man. What kind of foods did he eat to get so big? But, congratulations Ethan.

[@jp3mcpherson]

Depending on the person, some can gain easier than others can loose, and visa versa. In this scenario it was a dumb question tho.

[@balabommaashok9813]

God is great

[@LucasCatton]

Lewis, I have to say that as a fan of the work you're trying to do, I'm disappointed that you have had Scientologists like Ethan Suplee and Grant Cardone on your show. Especially as someone who is a survivor of childhood trauma, the organization that these guys support inflicts trauma on children and families and is something that should not be given a platform on a program like yours. Otherwise, thank you for everything you do.

[@OkIPullUp.]

What organization are you referring to that inflicts trauma to children and families?

[@LucasCatton]

Scientology

[@OkIPullUp.]

@@LucasCatton Shady organization indeed.

He lost 250 pounds, and found 20 square feet of excess skin. To bad they cancelled the Chance show, he was very good in that. I guess they are not going to go back and revisit that show ever. Too bad.

[@jp3mcpherson]

27:40 He worked constantly for 25 years and still wasn’t wealthy? Damn Hollywood is expensive. 🤔 28:04

[@dawncarrasco8320]

He obviously wasnt good with money or was taken advantage of like many stars who let agents run the show.

[@AndrewsOpinion15]

ethan suplee lost 250 + punds what a weight loss ?

[@myketoside]

I've never seen any of his work; He seems like a nice guy and all, but I'm not seeing what the message is here.

He lost a bunch of weight

Hes an actor in lots of shoes and movies,I thi k they thoughtvthatvgies without saying and he . As the person above said lost a bunch of weight lol the point is "hey remember this guy? He completely changed his life!"

[@user-ee5om8wy7u]

Naturally skinny people have no idea how hard it is to restrain oneself from indulging because they never even tried to restrain. When I was naturally skinny in my childhood to teenagehood, I would assume that fat people simply gorge themselves because they are mentally lazy as f*** and just want to be disgusting. But I DID gorge myself and ate always untill I felt painfully over- stuffed yet I was skinny. So, I did the same thing - stuffed my face and yet assumed that I was NOT lazy as f*** simply because my body stayed skinny. I was really blessed I could gorge without consequences.So I had no idea that this blessing would come to an end at around the age of 13. Once I hit puberty and stopped growing in height, I noticed my belly slowly changed. By the time I was 16 my belly was protruding and thighs became too thick and I could not figure out why because I didn't suddenly change my eating, but my figure somehow changed. I thought my figure shouldn't change because I ate as I alwayd did throughout my life - until I was painfully stuffed! Later I learned that I was blessed in the first place - blessed that I had such free-all-you-can-gorge time and still stay skinny .... because there are other people who naturally lose that easy time by the age of 5 already (when they are still kids). And yet they are those, who never lose that easy-no-effort time and stay skinny forever (those are a very small minority though). But the latter, the luckiest of all, exist and they they are the ones who have no idea how agonizingly hard it can be to resist bodily cravings. Resisting sometimes can feel like torture: like trying not to breathe at all and staying happy at the same time. I discovered that I'm an addict when it comes to sweets and I was simply lucky to be able to indulge and gorge without consequences until 13. Today, I maintain a very healthy weight, but I eat consciusly and responsibly, caarefully planning the majority of my meals. I was lucky for awhile, but I'm not lucky any more. The good thing about it is, at least, now I can understand alcoholics who stay away from alcohol in order to stay sober. I won't temp them with alcoholic beverages just because I never crave alcohol and I effortlessly drink in tiny amounts. I am genetically lucky with alcohol because I never really crave it nor enjoy it too much. But those who have genes, which biologically predispose them to intense cravings, react differently - they are trying excruciatingly hard to drink little and to stay sober, and frankly, I can never understand how hard it is for them. Who am I to judge them for the lack of will if I myself have never experienced that kind of internal insatiable drive to drink more and more? But having had to struggle with food, I get perspective at least. Also, the weight gain changed my perspective on the overweight people themselves, especially children. Kids are dependent on their environment and their environment is such, that it makes them vulnerable to becoming addicted to processed food. Halloween and Christmas parties are all about processed foods! We should change those holidays to be not around candies but around fun games or around fun dance....! Giving tons of candies to a baby is no different than giving them tons of cigarettes. But the culture and society hasn't caught up with dangers of sugar-laden foods and perilously promote them everywhere, even in hospitals......:((

When he can keep the weight off for at least 5 years (not that that is a guarantee) then tell us about it.
