Your PCOS Nutrition Sessions - What to Expect

What to Expect in Your 3 RD Sessions with PCOS
Integrated support from Chiyo’s nutrition program

When you’re navigating PCOS, the path can feel unclear. But food can be a powerful tool—and Chiyo’s Hormone Balance Program: PCOS is designed to work with your body, not against it. Through our three registered dietitian (RD) sessions, you’ll get expert, personalized support as you move through the program.

Here’s what to expect—plus why three sessions make all the difference.

Your PCOS Nutrition Sessions - What to Expect

Session 1: Getting the Full Picture

Your first session is all about uncovering your full health story—your diagnosis, symptoms, daily habits, and what a typical week of eating, movement, stress, and sleep looks like.

✨ What we’ll cover:

  • Review your medical history and cycle patterns
  • Discuss how and when you’re eating
  • Start identifying simple shifts to support blood sugar and hormone health
  • Personalize your Chiyo experience (snack ideas, symptom tracking, exercise)

💬 Patient Q: I’ve been skipping breakfast for years, but I keep reading it’s important for PCOS. I’m just not hungry in the morning—should I force myself to eat?
🩺 RD A: Totally understandable. When you’ve been skipping for a while, hunger cues can get quiet. Let’s try a small win this week—maybe half your Chiyo breakfast at 9am. We’ll build gradually and see how your energy, mood, and cravings respond.



Session 2: Mid-Program Check-In (Adjust + Fine-Tune)

Now that you've had time to try the meals, track symptoms, and build some routines, it’s time to reflect and refine.

🔍 What we’ll cover:

  • Evaluate cycle changes (length, flow, PMS)
  • Tweak meal timing and structure to better match your hunger and energy
  • Add in at-home snack ideas if you need more than what’s delivered
  • Monitor blood sugar and appetite signals

💬 Patient Q: I’m always starving around 4 PM, and it’s hard not to overeat before dinner. Any tips?
🩺 RD A: That afternoon dip is common with PCOS. Let’s add a structured snack around 3 PM—think protein + fiber + fat. Something like Greek yogurt with flax, or a rice cake with avocado and a sprinkle of Chiyo gomasio can help hold you through ‘til dinner.


Session 3: Graduation + What’s Next

This session is your moment to celebrate how far you’ve come—and set the tone for what comes next.

🧡  What we’ll cover:

  • What symptoms have improved
  • What still feels sticky (and how to tackle it)
  • Whether you’re ready to transition to a fertility-focused plan
  • Long-term strategies, from meal planning to grocery lists and supplement recs

💬 Patient Q: My A1C came down, and I’m feeling more in control of my appetite. But now I’m thinking about trying to conceive. What should I keep in mind?
🩺 RD A: Amazing progress! Let’s build on what worked—like the way you paired carbs with protein to keep blood sugar steady. We can also talk about prenatal vitamins, optimizing egg quality, and if Chiyo’s fertility program is a good next step.


Why Three Sessions?

Because sustainable change doesn’t happen overnight. You need space to be heard, to test new habits, to course-correct.

Each session is timed for a reason:

  1. Assessment: To understand your baseline and personalize your start.
  2. Adjustment: To fine-tune based on how your body’s responding.
  3. Anchor: To lock in what’s working and help you carry it forward.

No crash-course. No shame. Just steady, supported progress with food that loves your body back.
