After many unsuccessful attempts, Mistie Mace, NP, is finally finding success on her weight‑loss journey. She joins us to share her personal experience, alongside Dr. Michelle Gourdine, Chief Medical Officer for CVS Caremark, who will discuss the benefits of a comprehensive, whole‑person approach. https://www.cvshealth.com

For Mistie Mace, a Licensed Practical Nurse, thyroid cancer survivor, and full‑time caregiver to her 19‑year‑old son with cerebral palsy and blindness—an approach that fits the demands of her day‑to‑day life has always been essential. After living with obesity since childhood and reaching 416 lbs at her heaviest, she knew she needed support that felt realistic and sustainable. Through CVS Health’s Weight Management Program, Mistie has lost 45 lbs in just a few months. What’s made the difference is a whole‑person model that pairs medical therapy with structured behavioral support, including coaching, nutrition guidance, and consistent accountability. She is experiencing improved mobility, better energy, normalized blood sugar levels, and meaningful progress toward long‑term health.
