I’m a Type 2 Diabetic controlling my diabetes (for now) with Diet/exercise. I have lost weight, increased activity. At night before bed, my blood glucose is pretty good (100-115). But, then first thing in the morning before breakfast, it seems to spike (145-160). Anyone else experincing this? What can I do to manage?

He told me today I have gestational diabetes and asked the nurse to give me some dietary education, but then everyone disappeared and I didn't get any education at all. I've never had this before and have no clue what to do!
 
All they told me was that diabetes can be controlled with diet and exercise…. but no info on the kind of diet. we're going into a holiday weekend so I know I won't get any appointments with dieticians or specialists until next week or the week after at the earliest.
 
Meanwhile, do you guys have any suggestions of simple foods to eat/diets to follow? Am I supposed to avoid sugar totally? P.S. I am so angry at my doctor, and feel really guilty about having diabetes. Any suggestions on how to cope would be great!
