1 Month PCOS Meal Plan (PDF)

Description

When it comes to PCOS, eating a healthy diet and maintaining a healthy body weight are important. But it can be hard to know what the best diet is – Is it a keto diet? Low carb diet? Vegan diet? Mediterranean diet?

Ultimately, the most important thing for PCOS management is eating a balanced diet designed to restore insulin sensitivity and hormonal balance. I, and many others, have had the best success eating a lower carbohydrate/low glycemic index diet that is also free from gluten, dairy, soy, and processed foods. 

It really is a lifestyle change and not just a temporary “diet”. It’s about making sustainable lifestyle changes and creating long-term healthy eating habits.

PCOS affects women of reproductive age. Some common PCOS symptoms are: Insulin resistance/high insulin levels, imbalanced blood sugar levels, irregular periods/menstrual cycles, hormonal imbalance, weight gain, high levels of male hormones, facial hair and excessive hair growth, and hair loss. 

This meal plan for polycystic ovary syndrome includes:

Four 7 day meal plans

Each 7 day plan has delicious recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and 3 snack meals for each week.

Each meal plan will note how many servings you will get out of each recipe, and which days you are cooking/meal prepping and which days you are eating leftovers.

PCOS diet grocery lists

Each 7 day plan also includes a weekly shopping list that is broken down by the different categories of food – fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, whole grains, meats, healthy fats and oils, etc. This list will only call for exactly what you need to make your recipes. For example it won’t tell you to buy a whole bag of tomatoes when you only need 2. This means that you won’t overspend on groceries or waste any food.

Nutritional information

Each 1 week meal plan gives you a daily total of calories, macronutrients (protein, fat and carbohydrates – grams & percentages), fiber, cholesterol, sodium, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium and iron.

Each individual recipe also comes with the same nutritional information breakdown.

Actual breakdown for this pcos diet meal plan

On average, each day you will be getting:

• Roughly 1700 calories
• Roughly 55-65% of your calories from fat, 15-20% from carbohydrates, and 20% from protein. This amounts to roughly 120-130 g of fat, 75-80 g of carbohydrates, and 80-90 g of protein on average.
• Roughly 25 g of fiber.

Guide to meal prepping

This meal plan also comes with a detailed guide on how to meal prep each week to set yourself up for success. This includes spending some time in the kitchen one day per week to prepare your portioned meals for that week. That way, each day you can pull your meals out and you are ready to go. This helps reduce temptation and will keep you on track.
