Guy drops 400 pounds with some help from Taylor Swift

Talk about shaking it off.

Two years ago Ronnie Brower weighed a staggering 675 pounds, and his doctor told him if he didn’t make some drastic changes he would be dead within 10 years.

But now, thanks to hard work, harder workouts, a dedicated teacher, and some inspiration from Taylor Swift, Ronnie has dropped down to 250 pounds!

Ronnie’s friend and former teacher Joe Bufano promised Ronnie that he would take him to see Taylor Swift perform after he lost 400 pounds.

Ronnie listened to Taylor Swift throughout his weight loss, and now, to celebrate reaching his goal weight, he will see her perform live.

“He told me in his darkest days ... he would often listen to Taylor, and it was the messages in her music that kind of gave him some source of joy and happiness. It kept him buying into life,” Bufano told the Daily Dot.

Now that Ronnie has met his weight loss goal, Joe has another goal — to have Ronnie meet the pop icon herself. Joe posted a video chronicling Ronnie’s transformation set to the Taylor Swift tunes that inspired Ronnie throughout his weight loss journey.

Joe asks the pop star if she will meet Ronnie when the pair attend her concert on June.

Taylor Swift fans have been tweeting the video using the hashtag #ronnieweightloss.

We hope that Ronnie gets the chance to meet her!
