The Reset

The Reset is a 28-day meal plan designed to help you optimise egg quality, support implantation, and align your nutrition with each phase of your cycle.

Created by fertility dietitian Laura Ballantyne, this digital guide is divided into two specialised two-week blocks, each tailored to nourish your body through a specific stage of your cycle.

Whether you’re trying naturally or undergoing fertility treatment (IUI, OI, or IVF), this is your reset - one that tastes good and feels even better.

Inside, you’ll find 80+ fertility-focused meal and snack ideas, a pantry guide, weekly shopping lists, and practical nutrition tips, so eating to support your fertility feels simple, intentional and stress-free.

This plan is designed to be flexible and inclusive, with simple adjustments to suit your dietary preferences.

Vegetarian or vegan? Many of the meals are naturally plant-based, and all others include easy swaps to suit a vegetarian or vegan diet without compromising on nutritional quality.

Gluten free? While this isn’t a strictly gluten-free meal plan, it’s based around mostly naturally gluten-free whole foods- think vegetables, fruits, legumes, dairy, nuts, seeds, and proteins in their natural form.

If you’re following a gluten-free diet, you’ll need to make a few straightforward substitutions (like swapping bread, pasta, or soy sauce). These changes won’t impact the overall structure or intention of the plan.

Please note: This guide doesn’t provide detailed gluten-free alternatives for every recipe. If you’re managing coeliac disease or a medically diagnosed gluten intolerance, you’ll need to feel confident making suitable adjustments that align with your needs.

The Reset aligns with the two key phases of your menstrual cycle — the follicular and luteal phases — which also mirror the structure of most fertility treatment cycles.

If you’re undergoing treatment such as:

• Ovulation induction (OI) or IUI: follow the plan as written, using ovulation as your mid-point.
  
• IVF or ICSI: use the first half of the plan (weeks 1–2) to support egg development and retrieval, and the second half (weeks 3–4) from embryo transfer through your two-week wait.
  
• Frozen embryo transfer (FET): skip straight to the second half of the plan to nourish your body through your transfer and two-week wait.

This plan is flexible and adaptable, you don’t need to follow it perfectly for it to be effective.

Use it in a way that feels supportive to your body, your timeline, and your treatment protocol.

The Reset is designed to be flexible and easy to follow, no matter where you’re at in your fertility journey.

• Follow the plan day-by-day or jump into the phase that matches your current cycle stage or treatment timeline.
  
• Use the weekly shopping lists and pantry guide to make preparing for the week simple and stress-free (you don't have to waster your Sunday meal prepping!).
  
• Feel free to swap meals or skip snacks within each phase to suit your preferences and dietary needs.
  
• Listen to your body - if you’re hungrier some days, enjoy extra snacks or larger portions. If your less hungry, skip the snacks and go for smaller portions.
  
• Don’t worry about perfection. This plan is here to help you nourish your body consistently and gently, not restrict or overwhelm.
