Hello, my name is Tracey and I'm from Vincennes, Indiana. My goal is to lose 160 lbs. I've got a long way to go, but I've already lost 30lbs :smile: All my life I've been obese...now I'm 32 and I have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and I feel absolutely terrible about myself. I took a video for someone a few weeks back and you could hardly hear them through my huffing and puffing as I breathed near the mic. It's time for a change!! I'm sick and tired of walking around worrying about my health and if I'm going to live to see 50.
