Hi Everyone -
I am a 28 year old Male, and im 127kg. I am trying to lose weight and eat healthily. Around 1 month ago i passed my first ever bladder/kidney stone (not sure which between the two as I didnt have any severe back pain mainly bladder). Given it was my first scare, it really prompted me to take my health more seriously as the bladder pain was something I dont want again. My previous diet consisted mainly of junk foods, ultra-processed snacks, and ALOT of soda. I have cut them all out, with my occasional treat now being a zero calorie zero sugar ice tea drink.
I have written a below diet plan: -
Monday - normal day consuming my lemon water + 1 spoon of honey + x2 scrambled eggs with bread, snack orange + banana, and for dinner 1-2 steaks marinated modertalty, and some pumpkin seeds and walnuts
Tuesday - normal day consuming my lemon water + 1 spoon of honey + x2 eggs with bread, and the tuna sandwhiches, and maybe some pumpkin seeds and walnuts
Wednesday - normal day consuming my lemon water + 1 spoon of honey + x2 scrambled eggs with bread, snack orange + banana, and for dinner 1-2 steaks marinated modertalty, and some pumpkin seeds and walnuts
Thursday - normal day consuming my lemon water + 1 spoon of honey + x2 eggs with bread, and the tuna sandwhiches, and maybe some pumpkin seeds and walnuts
Friday - normal day consuming my lemon water + 1 spoon of honey + x2 scrambled eggs with bread, snack orange + banana, and for dinner 1-2 steaks marinated modertalty, and some pumpkin seeds and walnuts
Saturday - normal day consuming my lemon water + 1 spoon of honey + x2 eggs with bread, and the tuna sandwhiches, and maybe some pumpkin seeds and walnuts
Sunday - normal day consuming my lemon water + 1 spoon of honey + x2 scrambled eggs with bread, snack orange + banana, and for dinner 1-2 steaks marinated modertalty, and some pumpkin seeds and walnuts
From the above diet: -
I also started walking daily around 30 mins
Doing pelvic stretching, as i read up on CPPS
Take a 1 billion supplement of probiotics daily
Does the above diet: -
Reduce stone risk?
Improve my semen quality/quantity
And aid in weightloss?

how much bread does that include? my two worries would be not consuming enough calories (crash diets can be harder to maintain/put body in starvation mode where youll gain more weight afterwards and worry #2 is too much salt.. bread contains quite a lot, might be good idea to switch it up with potato/rice/other carbs
Great start so far... Cutting out the soda and processed stuff is the biggest win you can make right now -- that's the foundation. Your body probably needs a month or two just to stabilize before you start tweaking the details, so don't stress about nailing the oxalate limits perfectly on day one. The bladder pain versus back pain thing doesn't change much for prevention, but it does tell you something useful: you're catching this early and motivated, which matters. Focus on the boring ...
Do some exercises as well! If you want to lose weight, you must burn calories! Eating less and not doing exercises won't really work! Good luck
