Hi, anyone have a healthy diet plan for a breastfeeding mom?

I have a very colicy baby. I need something like a breakfast/lunch/dinner and snacks in between type menu. I don't need answers that just tell me what I can eat and what to avoid. Ideally, 2000 calories or less and no milk/dairy products, nuts, caffeine, things that can make a fussy baby even more fussy. Anyone following anything like that?

You should add an additional 500 calories to your diet, so somewhere around 2500 calories, but not much more.

I try to avoid all beans, cauliflower, broccoli, brussel sprouts as these can make the baby gassy. I also avoid caffeine, but I still eat dairy products (I would avoid those only if your doctor suggests so from the baby seeming to be lactose intolerant, such as redness or vomiting). I also drink a lot of water.

These are my suggestions and have worked very well to keep my baby calm and happy.

I try and keep my calories down because I really don't do anything to burn them off. Breastfeeding has pretty much bought me back down 30lbs pre-pregnancy weight. I have either toast, oatmeal, or poptarts for breakfast. On the weekends, I'll do a bigger breakfast...I work full time so I have quick breastfast's during the week. Lunch I have a healthy choice, very low in calories, rather high in sodium tho. Dinner we usually have either some kind of chicken with veggies, hamburgers, tacos, bertolli's meals are good (high in sodium too), and snacks I have either a piece of fruit or a low fat yogurt.

Water, water, and more water! You can't drink too much water and it helps in the production of breastmilk. Oatmeal is very healthy (even if it tastes kinda yech). I was lucky with my firstborn-I could eat just about anything (no chocolate because he's allergic and no sausage because it made him breakout) but he was a very healthy eater. Eggs are a great source of protein (which is very good for you) and be sure you continue to take your prenatal vitamins.

THE ELIMINATION DIET

This is a diet that Martha recommends in her lactation-counseling practice whenever she suspects a baby's colic could be caused by sensitivities to food in a breastfeeding mother's diet. This diet was developed by William G. Crook, M.D. (Detecting Your Hidden Allergies, Jackson, Tenn: Professional Books, 1987), and it has several variations, depending on how bothersome the symptoms are. The elimination diet we use is based on eating the least allergenic food in each of the food groups. You may need to do this for two weeks since it can take this long for the offending foods to get out of your system and baby's system. Here is the variation we find helps mothers get the quickest, surest relief for their hurting babies:
