Any Taylor Swift fan knows that working out to her music makes exercise way more enjoyable, and one man has proven just how effective it can be. After 28-year-old Ronnie Brower heard his doctor say he could die before the age of 35, he knew it was time to make major changes to his lifestyle. The Taylor Swift superfan embarked on a two-year journey of hard workouts and steadfast motivation, and he went from a staggering 675 pounds to 250. To celebrate his incredible transformation, he's going to Taylor Swift's 1989 concert this June in Cleveland, and his next goal is to meet her in person.

"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," Ronnie's weight-loss coach, Joe Bufano, told the Daily Dot. Watch the video of Ronnie's journey, set appropriately to "Change" and "Shake It Off" by Taylor Swift (two of the best workout songs, in my opinion), and share his story to help him fulfill his ultimate dream.
