Type 2 Diabetes

[Maine150]

Well, Doc says I’m Type 2. I’m supposed to control it with diet. What diet? Where do I go? Web sites are contradictory. People are confusing. What I know is I have to lose 100 pounds in 1 year. The journey begins. Anyone out there have any suggestions or comments?

Have you done a search on this site yet or googled the same question?
I also found a lot of contradictory info on the web, but this is a good site for reference-

I was in the same boat (my Doc said I was showing pre-diabetes symptoms), but I changed my lifestyle and it went away-It can be done.
Learning to eat clean and daily exercise will vastly improve the situation.
I also chose to model my eating habits around the Mediterreanen diet and stopped drinking booze for a few months.
