Terri shows off her progress after weight loss surgery

Joining GBMC’s Comprehensive Obesity Management Program (COMP) was more than a health decision for Terri Kline—it was a turning point after personal loss. “The death of my father was a catalyst for me,” she shares. “I knew I needed to take better care of myself, for me and for my family.”

Terri joined COMP in August 2024 and quickly found comfort in the program’s structure, support, and sense of community. “I love the COMP program at GBMC,” she says. “The in-person meetings helped me prepare both physically and mentally for surgery. That mental preparation is so important, and connecting with others on the same journey has been a great resource.”

One of the things Terri values most is how easy it is to stay in touch with providers. “You can reach out through Facebook or MyChart, and everyone is so helpful. It truly feels like GBMC COMP is the best in the Baltimore area.”

Since surgery, Terri has lost 75 pounds and gained a new sense of energy and confidence. “I can walk up and down the steps without getting out of breath. I can cross my legs comfortably—something I couldn’t do before. I’m buying smaller clothes. And my children have noticed that I’m more active. It’s the little things that mean so much.”

As Terri’s story shows, the power of support, both emotional and clinical, can make all the difference.

If you’re ready to take the first step, you don’t have to do it alone. Schedule your COMP consultation today—and discover what’s possible.
