Use a BG meter or CGM to test that your meals are low enough in carbs. Here's the simple blog post which got me on the path to T2D remission (over 4yr remission so far): https://josekalsbeek.blogspot.com/2019/11/the-nutritional-thingy.html You really need your 2hrs after first bite BG readings down to under 8.0 (worst case) or less than 2.0 above your pre-meal reading if you can do that.
