My wife is diabetic and never had good luck with the doctor dictated diets until she started following the Atkins diet. High protein, very low carbohydrate. She has done well on it, her blood sugar is under control and she's even lost some weight. At her last checkup her chloresterol level and tri-glycerides were way down too. Her doctor couldn't believe she now eats beef or pork at least twice a day and about a dozen eggs each week. The main thing is that she feels MUCH better. More energy and she eats real food. I've started following it to some extent and feel better myself.
I'm no doctor, but I know what works for us.
As far as veggies are concerned: They aren't food; they are what food eats.
Hope you find something that works for you.
