Goals for an individual with PCOS should be determined in conjunction with the client and should be specific to the individual. Goals that are set should be time-sensitive, easily measured and achievable by the nutrition intervention. Action and outcome related along with short-term and long-term goals may be set. Examples of short- and long-term goals include:
- to reduce the intake of sweetened beverages from eight to four per week by the next scheduled appointment (in one month)
