- Welcome Miami1307- you will definitely find this group very helpful with your diabetes questions. As far as what you can eat, it might be worthwhile to seek out a nutritionist who specializes in diabetes. In the US a person with the initials CDE after their title means they are a Certified Diabetes Educator and have taken extra hours of training to learn about diabetes. Everyone's carb # is different. You actually will be able to eat sweets after you learn how to work them into your diet. Good Luck !
