Now that I’ve been into this for 3 weeks I have a few questions to refresh my memory.

I’ve been aiming for 1800kj a day, which is close to what I ended at last time (1900ish as I was losing too much weight). Is that ok? 60g fat and 50g protein too.

I’m still BF one feed a day too which I wasn’t last time.

I’m also finding it hard to keep to the fat limits. Would skim milk help?

I’m eating 3-4 meals, but am having 15hrs between dinner and next meal..

Thoughts on any of that?

Sorry another question, if I’m finding the fibre too much can I lower the amount?

Are you counting the small amounts of fat and protein in fruit and veg?? If so, don't.

If you're on the alternate PCOS-type diet for insulin resistance, PCO tendencies, or egg quality you should NOT have skim dairy. Everyone else can have skim dairy.

1800-2000 cals for anyone breastfeeding, even just 1x a day. If your body "thinks" there's not enough coming in when you're nursing it will stop ovulating.

No worries on the number of meals, 3 is totally allowed and I often have people go to 4. I always had 3 when I got my girl

The doctor thinks I may need an iron supplement, and will know more after blood test. How will that go with swaying? Should I put the swaying on hold until my levels are better?

No. Take the supplement as directed for 6 weeks then reduce to 3x a week.
