GBMC’s Comprehensive Obesity Management Program (COMP) has been nothing short of life-changing for Michelle Harvey. “It’s been a blessing,” she says. “One day at a time, I’m moving toward a healthier life—and I have no desire to go back to the habits that held me back.”

Michelle started her journey by losing 40 pounds even before surgery. Since her procedure in December 2024, she’s down another 45 pounds and is now closing in on her 100-pound milestone.

“I wanted to lose weight, develop a healthier way of living, and enjoy a longer life,” she shares. “Now, I walk better, feel better, and rest better.”

One of the biggest changes for Michelle? Relief from arthritis pain in her knees, which has made everyday life much more manageable. She’s moving with more freedom, gaining confidence, and staying motivated with each step forward.

“I feel GREAT,” she says proudly. “COMP gave me the tools and support I needed to make this happen.”

Your future is waiting—and it starts with one step. Schedule your COMP consultation today.
