I used to feel tired, bloated, and hungry all the time… until I finally started eating in a way that actually worked for my body.

2 years ago, I was diagnosed with PCOS and prediabetes in my early 20s, and everything I thought I knew about “healthy” eating had to change. No more sad smoothie bowls or oatmeal that left me crashing by 10 a.m.

What I focus on now? High-protein, low-carb meals that taste amazing and keep me full for hours—like these spicy beef & eggplant lettuce wraps. It’s bold, flavorful, and satisfying with every bite.

I’ve been able to manage my PCOS and even reverse my prediabetes completely—
and I didn’t get here by cutting out all the foods I loved. I just started cooking in a way that fuels me, not drains me.

🍆 INGREDIENTS (serves 2-3):
• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 tbsp sesame oil (or olive oil)

• ½ onion, thinly sliced
• 1 medium eggplant, diced small
• 1 tbsp gochujang (or sriracha)
• 1 tbsp coconut aminos (or soy sauce)
• salt & pepper to taste
• lettuce leaves for wrapping (iceberg/romaine)

🥬 INSTRUCTIONS
1️⃣ heat oil in a pan. add garlic and ground beef, cook until mostly browned.

2️⃣ toss in onion + eggplant and sauté until soft.
