Ugandan singer Tracy Melon, real name Tracy Mirembe, has explained her significant weight loss, saying that she has been battling an illness that threatened her life.
Tracy Melon, during her recent interview, explained that she has not been actively releasing music this year because she has had to deal with issues that were affecting her health for a couple of months.
The singer revealed that a number of people, especially on social media, have constantly discussed her massive loss of weight, with some cautioning her to stop the supposed weight loss program, not knowing that it was because of the illness.
“I have lost weight; like 13kgs and people have been mentioning it and telling me to stop what I was doing to lose the weight. I wish I was doing something but it is not my choice and it is not something I want. It just happened because of constant being in and out of hospital,” she said.
Relating to the unfortunate events that happened to her, Tracy Melon encouraged the public to refrain from judging others because they are battling issues they cannot publicly discuss.
“One thing I want to tell people is that when you see anyone walking on the street, please be kind because when that person goes back to their house, they are battling something. When you see me posting on social media today, you might not know that last night I was caught in between life and death; I was in the middle of not knowing whether I will wake up tomorrow or not. The world should extend a little more kindness to people,” she said.
During her sickbed, Tracy explained that she didn’t share her ordeal with anyone apart from those very close to her. With this, she slid into what she described as a mini depression, isolating herself from her friends and family.

“I didn’t share it with anyone. A few people knew that I wasn’t fine. I just kept telling them I was not feeling well but didn’t go into detail about what exactly was the issue. It took me through a mini depression where I isolated myself from family and friends. I stopped talking to people because I felt like I had ranted enough and the people I was talking to were tired of listening to it,” she said.
Tracy Melon further revealed that she was recovering well and thanked God for taking her through the most difficult moment of her life.
