Start with Carb Counting 101 in the T2 Section, it's one of the first three threads.

It depends who you ask and your situation. Many dietitians recommend a moderate carb diet where about 45% of your calories are from carbs. This is based on ADA recommendations. Read the resources but also see a registered dietitian.

You are right when you guessed that carbs are much more of a no-no now. This is where you would likely want to start with your diet; with the amount of carbs ingested; especially sugar carbs. I looked a little for you on the net. Here is a site I found to get a brief synopsis of how one should eat: http://www.webmd.com/diet/guide/expe...ype-2-diabetes
