Hi, I’m Kristina, and I’m so glad you’re here! 💛
My journey with insulin-resistant PCOS started when I was struggling with fertility. After months of frustration, I finally got a diagnosis— but I felt lost when it came to food, blood sugar balance, and hormone health. I quickly realized that nutrition was key to feeling better, but most of the advice out there felt very extreme - no caffeine, no alcohol, no carbs, no sugar, no dairy - basically no fun!! That’s why I started this blog—to share delicious, low-carb, hormone-friendly recipes and meal plans that actually help you stay on track!
My Journey with Food
I’ll be honest—I found it really difficult to transition away from the foods I loved. I was a sourdough girly, baking a fresh loaf every week. I made homemade pasta regularly. I remember going home and crying to my husband that I was going to have to cut these things out. Little did I know, all that homemade food was actually making my PCOS worse.
For five years, I struggled with extra weight around my stomach and love handles that I just couldn’t shake. Even though I was eating whole, homemade meals, they were packed with carbs that were aggravating my insulin resistance.
Making the switch to low-carb meals wasn’t easy at first, but it was absolutely necessary for my health. Now, I focus on creating delicious, hormone-balancing recipes that are both satisfying and nourishing, helping me and other women manage PCOS and insulin resistance without feeling deprived.

Family-Friendly Meals (Even for the Picky Eaters)
Let’s face it—meal planning can be tough when you have different tastes under one roof. I know this firsthand because my husband is a picky eater who doesn’t like most salads or “health food.” (Sound familiar?) But I’m here to prove that eating for PCOS, insulin resistance, and low-carb living doesn’t mean sacrificing taste or making separate meals.
I focus on creating dishes that are both delicious and satisfying for everyone, even the picky eaters.
Let’s Take This Journey Together
I know how overwhelming it can be to change your diet, but you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to make eating for insulin resistance, satisfying, and totally delicious.
So grab a cup of spearmint tea (hello, hormone balance! ☕), browse some recipes, and let’s fuel our bodies the right way—one meal at a time.
