I started eating better and stopped drinking sweet drinks. I'll treat myself once a week now with just a burger or a couple slices of pizza, But no more eating and drinking junk food like it's the last time I'll ever see food again!
And even after the stone is gone keep drinking water everyday! It flushes you out.

The irony is that stones are generally two types.
In my case, Calcium Oxalate. The other type is Uric Acid.
Some of the healthiest foods known to man contribute to mine.
I can't have broccoli, brussel sprouts, tomatoes, anything ending in berries, and on and on.
So, junk food not always the cause unfortunately.
Best thing is to get the stone when you pass it and have it analyzed. They will tell you what causes it.
One thing is for sure, always drink lots of water, which I don't do enough of a good job with.
BTW, I said "I can't have", not to be confused with "I don't have". I love tomatoes.
