My 600lb Life’s Brandon Scott unrecognisable after major weight loss transformation | TV & Radio | Showbiz & TV
Brandon Scott made an impression on season seven of TLC's My 600-Pound Life. After sticking to his weight loss plan, the singer took to Instagram to show off his incredible 450-pound loss.
When Brandon first entered Dr Now's office in 2019, he weighed 718 pounds and felt he was “living his own nightmare.”
At the time, he wanted to marry his then-girlfriend Taylor, but worried he wouldn't be able to walk the aisle and make Taylor his full-time caregiver.
However, Brandon proved he was determined to lose weight, even though he was moved to tears at the airport and almost gave up.
As a result, he became one of the show's success stories after losing 450 pounds.

Throughout his journey, Brandon faced many challenges, including Lymphedema.
This caused a blockage in the lymphatic system, causing swelling in his arms and legs, but he underwent life-saving stomach surgery after losing 141 pounds.
After the intense surgery, Brandon stuck to the plan and lost 383 pounds in 12 months.
During another check-up with Dr. Now, Brandon learned he weighed 265 pounds and was cleared for skin excision.
The always tough doctor said nothing about Brandon, saying: “I remember the first day I saw you, you were 718 pounds, so you lost over 450 pounds.
“Almost double your current weight, can you imagine?”
After recommending skin excision surgery, Dr. Now added: “If we think you're going to be under 200 pounds, that's huge.”
Season 11 of My 600 Pound Life continues every Wednesday on TLC in the US. A UK release date has yet to be announced.
