Mary Ellen Lorello has developed a wellness program which addresses three areas which can hinder a person's progress: focus, exercise, and diet.

Through coaching, Mary Ellen helps clients identify where their thoughts and behaviors might be hindering their ability to meet their wellness objectives. Her personal and professional experiences with weight management have instilled in her a great compassion for clients who struggle with weight, and have inspired her to try to make a difference.

Ms Lorello created The Balanced Gourmet in 2007, a catering business specializing in whole, healthy, customized meals for clients with special dietary needs and wellness goals. Her culinary services range from consultations and organization to cooking and classes.

In 2009, Mary Ellen completed a training program with Pilates Certification of North Carolina for beginner and intermediate mat classes. She offers private instruction as encouragement to deepen a client's connection between body and mind.

Mary Ellen has resided in Chapel Hill, NC, for three years. She is a NJ native and mother of two young children. Prior to her education in coaching, cooking, and pilates, she was Vice President of The Conditioning Co.,Inc, an HVAC contracting business in Newark, NJ. She can appreciate the challenges in sticking to wellness objectives in the face of a hectic life!
