What To Eat With Type 2 Diabetes
After a diagnosis, your mind may be in a whirl of confusion, especially when it comes to diet. Just what is healthy? What is safe? What foods should you never eat?

Although it doesn't give all the answers, this article may help answer some of your questions.

When you have diabetes, you need to try to balance how much carbohydrate you have at each meal. For example, if you had a breakfast that included a big glass of orange juice, sugared cereal with strawberries on top and a piece of toast, most likely your blood sugar after that meal would be way too high. That meal contains mostly carbohydrates, except for the little bit of fat and protein in the milk in your cereal. Instead, in order to better control your blood sugar, you should cut out some of the carbohydrates and substitute a little fat and protein.

A good nutritionist trained in diabetic teaching will help you review what you usually eat to find the meals that have too much carbohydrate in them. To figure this out for yourself, you could start checking your blood sugars two hours after a meal. If you keep track of what you are eating and then look at your blood sugar levels after meals, you can pick out which meals probably had too much carbohydrate in them.
