PCOS Nutrition Support for Cravings, Energy and Weight Struggles
Evidence-based nutrition and coaching to regulate blood sugar, reduce cravings and support sustainable weight management
Feel more in control around food by building realistic habits that fit around real life
Hi I'm Lisa, BANT & CNHC registered Nutritionist and metabolic health coach, with over a decade of experience. Through my free Evening Cravings Reset, group programmes and signature 12-week Hormone Shift Method, I'll help you reduce evening cravings, improve your energy and create lasting habits that support your hormones and weight for the long term.
Does this Sound Familiar?
You're in the Right Place If...
✔ You have PCOS (now also known as PMOS) and constantly think about food.
✔ You crave sugar in the afternoon or evening.
✔ You feel tired despite trying to eat well.
✔ You're skipping meals then overeating later.
✔ You've been told to lose weight but nobody explained how.
✔ You're confused by conflicting PCOS advice online.
✔ You're frustrated by fertility and ovulation challenges or irregular periods.
✔ You're struggling PCOS-related symptoms such as acne or unwanted hair growth.
Many women with PCOS become stuck in cycles of restriction → cravings → energy crashes → emotional eating → starting over
Not because they lack motivation, but because their body often needs more consistent support.
The truth is, trying to do things alone can be isolating and hard. And with all the noise and conflicting advice, it can feel as if you are constantly starting over and yo-yo dieting, instead of making progress.
Why So Many Women with PCOS Feel Stuck
Many women with PCOS tell me they feel exhausted by trying to "be good" all day, only to end up battling cravings later on. Others rely on caffeine to get through busy mornings, skip meals without meaning to or feel overwhelmed by the conflicting nutrition advice they see online.
Over time, these patterns can create a frustrating cycle of restriction, cravings, exhaustion and starting over, leaving you feeling stuck with weight gain, emotionally drained around food and disconnected from what your body actually needs.
The answer isn't another stricter diet or relying on more willpower.
It's learning simple nutrition strategies and consistent eating patterns that help you feel fuller after meals, reduce evening cravings, improve hormone balance and make healthy eating feel achievable in everyday life.
I don't help women follow perfect diets. I help them build confidence around food, create realistic routines that fit around busy lives and develop habits they can maintain long after the programme ends.
Because for many women, the goal isn't just losing weight. It's having more energy, thinking about food less, enjoying meals without guilt and finally feeling back in control of their health.
A simple Path to Lasting Change
Making lasting changes with PCOS doesn't happen through one perfect meal or one quick fix.
It happens by building simple, sustainable lifestyle changes that fit into everyday life.
Whether you're just getting started or looking for ongoing support, here's how we'll work together.

BANT Registered Nutritional Therapist and Health Coach
After more than a decade supporting women with PCOS, I've learnt that most don't need another diet or more conflicting nutrition advice. They need a simple, evidence-based plan that fits around real life and helps them feel back in control around food.
Over the past decade, I've supported women with PCOS-related symptoms like irregular periods, weight gain and ovulation or fertility challenges, across the UK and Europe, to improve their energy, reduce evening cravings and build a healthier relationship with food.
My approach combines evidence-based nutrition with practical health coaching to help you make realistic changes that last.
As a BANT Registered Nutritional Therapist and Metabolic Health Coach, I use a functional nutrition approach to understand the factors that may be influencing your symptoms. Together, we'll create a personalised plan that's realistic, achievable and tailored to your goals.
My Approach
Instead of relying on restrictive diets, calorie counting or constantly starting over, I focus on simple, evidence-based nutrition strategies that fit around your lifestyle and help you build lasting confidence around food.
Together, we'll focus on:
-
Building balanced meals that keep you fuller for longer
-
Improving blood sugar balance to help reduce cravings and support insulin resistance
-
Creating steady energy throughout the day
-
Establishing practical routines that work around busy work and family life
-
Making realistic changes you can maintain long after the programme ends
There are no extreme food rules, perfect meal plans or pressure to get everything right.
Just practical, personalised nutrition support that helps you feel more in control around food and creates sustainable change.

PCOS & PMOS: What's the Difference?
You may have seen PCOS being referred to as PMOS (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome). The new name reflects the fact that this condition affects far more than the ovaries, influencing metabolism, insulin regulation, energy, weight, skin health and fertility.
While the name may be changing, the goal remains the same: helping women understand their symptoms and make practical, sustainable changes that support their long-term health.
