Good morning!
Well, there is masses of diet advice on the forum. But the thing you have to remember is that people taking insulin and people not on insulin handle carbs quite differently - an insulin user can usually eat what carbs they like, and tailor their medication to match - but it does need carb counting.
Whereas, non insulin users usually benefit by reducing their carb intake, which lowers their blood glucose without needing insulin. they can often reduce any other medication they are taking too.
But there are several insulin users on this forum who have benefited tremendously by reducing carbs AND using precise doses of insulin. Some of them are type 2 and have eventually stopped needing insulin.
I can only talk about what works for me (type 2, no insulin) - which may not be what works for you.
Over in the low carb section of the forum we have a thread called What did you eat today? which can give you an idea of menus.
