Marion Boyd

About Marion

I have been a registered and licensed dietitian for over 20 years, with experience in community and clinical settings. I live in the Atlanta area with my husband, two boys (14 and 10), and two dogs. I love good food, I hate being hangry, and I think eating should leave you satisfied instead of stressed. Years of counseling clients from all walks of life, along with my own personal health challenges, have led me to my current area of expertise and passion: low carbohydrate and ketogenic diets to manage weight and chronic metabolic conditions. Whether your goal is weight loss, pre-diabetes reversal, A1c reduction, management of PCOS, or simply an improvement in overall well-being and energy, a well-formulated low-carbohydrate or ketogenic diet can help you reach your goals.

Approach to care

My ultimate goal is for you to be your own best advocate. I want you to believe so strongly in the choices you make to improve your health that you can easily wade through the ever-present noise and conflicting messages that challenge your decisions. You will understand the scientific principles behind my recommendations and gain a new perspective on what it means to eat a well-balanced diet based on your unique needs. I take a practical, individualized, whole-person approach to help you make meaningful and sustainable changes.

Your first session with Marion

In our first session together, I want to get to know you, hear about your goals, and learn about what has motivated you to make a change. I want to know about the foods and activities that are important to you and what your barriers to change might be. I will also spend time telling you more about my approach, why it works, and how it might fit into your life. If you're ready, we will set some initial goals based on your personal needs.
