Hi
It seems you are a recurrent stone former.
I presume you have had a CT scan of your kidneys to assess the stone burden.
The following general advice would be suitable for you to decrease the chance of stone formation.
1)increase oral fluids to make the urine colourless
2) reduce salt in your diet
3) Do not take red meat and decrease intake of animal protein

I would recomment analysing the stone that you have passed to know its composition.
I would also recomment 24 hour urine analysis to test volume, pH, calcium, uric acid, oxalate, citrate and cystine levels and if these are abnormal then treat it accordingly. I would also advice you to get your blood checked for calcium and uric acid levels.
Further specific diet advice can only be given based on these test results.
I find this answer helpful
