Melanie Logue 

Dietitian and Certified Nutrition Coach

Melanie believes that weight loss is not a one-size-fits-all solution. It’s all about zeroing in on what is keeping you from reaching your goals, and finding innovative ways to break through those barriers and build healthy habits. This often involves delving deep into childhood experiences and traumatic life events that have led to emotional eating, body image issues, and an unhealthy relationship with food– something that is overlooked with fad diets and typical weight loss programs. 

Melanie graduated with her Master’s in Nutrition from The University of Rhode Island, after completing her dietetic internship, and B.S. in Nutritional Sciences from Rutgers University-New Brunswick. For Melanie, this is not just a job, but a personal passion as well. She takes pride in leading a healthy lifestyle with her family, trying new recipes, and finding fun ways to stay active.
