Type 2 Diabetic .

Welcome William

If it's trying to manage T2D, then you are definitely in the right place.

Now bear in mind other ailments you might have, AND Medicines you may be taking

But if careful, reducing your carb intake would in my opinion be a sensible start.

Perhaps post up all meds & others ailments if you felt able to, others who mayb on those might offer good advice.

I'd say a good start would be pen & paper and work out the last few days food and how many carbs they contained.
Think of it a homework until others more experienced chime in.

I currently aim for about 60 grams of carbs a day..some go higher many go lower.

I'd say off the top of my head, pre diabetic I ran at 300+ upwards easily..so quite a reduction, which I guess is what your aiming for.

Link below was my go to when first dxd, to learn what foods offered the least carbs.

A look around that could be most informative while deciding what you could and should most likely replace in your current diet.

As always, we can't prescribe, but for information purposes, I say those two give you a good starting point.

It looks like your breakfast gives you a sharp rise. Have you considered changing your breakfast to prevent that rise? If you're eating a high carb breakfast, like porridge, bread or weetabix or such, you could try to change it to something with less carbs and see what happens.
Good luck!
