Hi U1196182735, Welcome to MyNetDiary! Did you know that losing 5-7% of your weight and exercising for at least 30 minutes most days of the week is the best way to help prevent diabetes?
As far as carbs and sugar go, I would choose the lower-carb plan with less than 40% calories from carb as a start. Here are some links with info to help you get started.
