What is
Eat Right, Happy Life?
Eat Right, Happy Life PLLC is here to provide professional, local nutrition and wellness services to anyone who needs it. We provide more than you'll ever get through a self-help book, program, diet or gimmicky weight loss shop.
Our mission is to help clients set SMART goals, educate them on nutritious eating, teach them needed skills by building permanent habits, and guide them toward success in achieving their health goals to help ensure happy lives.
Our vision is a community of citizens who listen to and are content with their bodies, are knowledgeable about nutrition, feel at ease with food selection and preparation, and enjoy spending time fellowshipping with one another over a good meal.
Our nutrition philosophy is key to how we go about counseling and educating clients. Life is all about moderation, from work to food to fun. Food is one of the keys to true health, with the others being love and good relationships, enjoyment of life, movement, and healthy habits. There aren't bad foods. Diets should include a wide variety of foods and a rainbow of color. People deserve better than having to count every calorie or say no to bacon.
Amanda, RDN & owner
I grew up in Louisiana but couldn't ignore the charm of Alabama, where I moved to attend college at the University of South Alabama in Mobile. I commissioned and served in the U.S. Air Force for several years before becoming a Reservist, returning to Alabama and settling in Auburn in 2013. My current Reserve job requires me to take a monthly weekend visit to beautiful Panama City, Florida. I got my nutrition degree from Auburn University in 2016 and completed my dietetic internship at Piedmont Hospital in Columbus, Georgia. I received my masters degree in nutrition and human performance from Logan University in 2022.
I always work to see the positive side of a situation and never give up, despite life's setbacks. I have four teenage girls who keep me busy for most of my days. I enjoy running and backpacking with my dog Fletcher, biking, cooking, reading, traveling, and of course spending time with friends and family. I believe in the Oxford comma and sometimes still put two spaces behind a period. I like to watch HGTV, create all sorts of extra house projects for my husband, and dream of building our own tiny house one day.
Mary Martin, RD
My profession is a pleasure, because dietitians witness clients as they transform into healthier, happier people. I have over 30 years' experience in the dietetics field. I am a wife, mother, and grandmother who adores cooking for my large family and learning Pilates.
My experience includes working for dairy farmers across the southeast serving as Director of Food and Nutrition Outreach for The Dairy Alliance; I even served as the National Dairy Council Ambassador. I’ve been interviewed for hundreds of print and media interviews including WebMD, Cooking Light, Teen Vogue and Eating Well Magazine. I served as president of the Alabama Dietetic Association in 2015 and am currently President of the Auburn District Dietetic Association.
I completed my bachelor’s degree from Samford University and my dietetic internship at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. I earned a Master of Arts degree in Health Sciences and Kinesiology from Southeastern Louisiana University.
My husband, Dave and I like to hike and travel abroad to taste foods from other countries. But on most days, you will find us at home, grilling on the patio and feeding hummingbirds.
