Taylor Swift is at the top of her game right now, winning eight Billboard Music Awards on Sunday. However, one superfan is crediting her with helping him lose over 400 pounds and that has to feel even better than any award.
Ronnie Brower weighed 675 pounds in 2013 and his doctor told him he probably wouldn’t live past the age of 35. Naturally, he decided to do something about it. Fast forward two years and Brower has lost 425 pounds.
Brower’s former high school teacher, Joe Bufano, helped connect him with trainers after he started working out at home because he couldn't leave his house.
Brower even made a Facebook page that documented his weight loss journey.
In the gym, Brower worked out to Taylor Swift and as an incentive, Bufano offered to buy him tickets to see the “Bad Blood” singer in concert on June 3 if he met his goal weight.
Now that he’s reached it, Bufano is trying to give Brower the icing on top of the cake by trying to spread the word about his story and getting him a backstage pass to meet Swift.
Here’s Brower’s story:
