Diabetes

Hi I have been a diabetic since the age of 9 now I'm 25  and it seems like nothing I do can get my glucose levels under control. I have tried Lantus 3 times now I'm back on NPH and it normal sometimes but I still suffer from lows at night and highs in the morning. Now Im really upset because I'm getting married in Nov. 2006 and I have been dieting 5 months now I have tried weight watchers, exercising 6 times a week now I'm doing low carbs and out of 6 months i have only losed 5 lbs. Is there some suggestions you can give me to help lose weight and control my glucose levels?
