U can eat normal just watch the sugars,my family has diabetes n they just watch what they eat if it gets to low than eat something sweet but don't get over board with it. U just got to figure out what will take it really high like candy bars n oranges. N if it gets too low than eat one of those just always keep something around in case it does get low BC u be needing that sugar. Just look on the packages of how much sugar is in the food u eat. U will get a handle on it. I do know some juices u got to watch out for. U can ask ur primary doctor about it BC they usually can help u more with it.

No I've been to a dietitian they are the ones who told me to budget my carbs and sugars

Those numbers sound too low. Are you purposely trying to eat no sugars or carbs? Usually that happens if you go from one extreme to the next. You need to get those levels up to a more normal range... have you seen a dietitian? They will give you meal planning tips and show you how to schedule out your meals so your sugars don't get too high or too low.
