rule of thumb, aviod sweet food and check ur sugar regularly. eat plenty of green vegetables, avoid taking much carbohydrate (bread, rice, cereals, etc), eat it moderation (but dont starve), and exercise regularly. hope it helps, but hey dont forget to seek expert help, preferably from a doc/ diabetic nurse/ dietician. the american diabetic association has a resourceful website too. http://www.diabetes.org/home.jsp

a registered dietitian would be able to compile the best diet for your specific needs. if you don’t want to go that route, south beach is pretty healthy for people with diabetes.
Check with the American Diabetes Association, follow your doctors advice, watch your blood sugar. Keep your sugar and sodium intake low, stay within a good calorie range, eat fruit especially grapes for snacks, have a good cereal for breakfast, just watch what you eat, eat in moderation and be sure to check with your doctor.
You should see a dietician for this-Remember, its EXTREMELY important that you very closely regulate your sugar- I do research on diabetic neuropathy, which is a horrible debilitating conditions that many diabetics develop, and it can be largely prevented by very close regulation of blood sugar levels- Other complications such as retinopathy (diabetic blindness), kidney failure, and cardiovascular disease is also largely preventable by close regulation of blood sugar.
diabetics (and many people in general) benefit from a diet consisting mainly of foods with a low glycaemic index (ie. low in sugar) and low in unhealthy fats (trans fats, saturated fats. Websites of interest are below.
Any diets/ healthy eating plans should be done so with the approval of your general practitioner (physician).
Good luck
As everyone said, it’s extremely important to monitor your diet and see your physician regularly. In overweight individuals, weight loss can aid in improving blood sugar levels; regular exercise can also help to control blood sugar. If you decide to lose weight or start exercising (if you haven’t already been), you should see your doctor first.
