Keto for PCOS | Day 29: What’s On My Plate – A Typical Day of Keto Meals

One of the most common questions I get is: “What do you actually eat?” When you’re doing keto for PCOS, food isn’t just about calories—it’s about supporting hormones, stabilizing insulin, and keeping inflammation low.

So here’s a peek at a typical day of eating that works for me. It’s budget-conscious, Pinay-friendly, and yes—still delicious.

Brunch (11:00 AM)

Breaking my 16:8 fast with something hearty and nourishing.

• 2 eggs fried in coconut oil

• 1 can sardines in olive oil

• ½ avocado or steamed pechay

• Black coffee or water with Apple Cider

It’s high-fat, high-protein, and keeps me full for hours—no blood sugar crash.

Snack (if needed)

Only when I’m truly hungry between meals.

• 1 boiled egg

• 1 small handful of cashews or almonds

• Green tea or cucumber-infused water

Dinner (6:00–7:00 PM)

My biggest meal, and usually my favorite to prep.

• Grilled chicken thigh or pork belly

• Cauliflower rice or sautéed cabbage in butter

• Kimchi or cucumber salad

• Optional: small square of 85% dark chocolate

I try to finish eating before 7:30 PM to give my body time to digest before bed.

Notes:

• I keep things flexible. Sometimes I skip the snack, or I swap in sinigang (no gabi)

• I drink lots of water with Himalayan salt to support electrolytes.

• I meal prep 5 times a week so I’m not tempted to order out. The 2 days are reserved for left overs.

  
  

Eating this way isn’t about being perfect—it’s about consistency. And for me, that means keeping it simple, flavorful, and grounded in what my body actually needs.
