Thanks for using the forum.
Diet is very important for managing your diabetes. I am sure you know that it is very important to limit your carbs because they are what raise your blood sugar. If possible, you could consult with a dietician. They can consider what you are eating now and help you to understand what changes need to be made, while incorporating the foods you currently enjoy. You doctor is another good resource, they can give you recommended parameters for amounts of carbs, calories, etc. Using that information and blood glucose testing you could tailor you diet to keep you blood sugar within the recommended limits.

Everybody is different in how many carbs they can eat. The only way to tell is to get a BG meter and test... test before you eat count the carbs you eat and test 1 hour, 2 hours after you eat. your BG should not go over 140.
We do know carbohydrates raise BG ALL carbs... rice,pasta,wheat,potato, and most fruit contain large amounts of carbs. so test to see what you can eat.
