No refined or added sugar diet. I get my sweet fix from fruit with lots of fiber. I also cut out any refined products like bread etc

I do keto/low carb diet. Lose weight, cuts appetite and when I was really strict, lowered my A1C and my cholesterol numbers went back in the normal range. Also stopped the neuropathy that was starting in my feet, hands, and arms. Lots of resources on the net and YouTube. Good luck!

Biggest thing that helped me was cutting out drinking any pop. I went 3 months and lost 30+ lbs. I've never gained that weight back but I do allow myself to have 1 pop a day now. Eat lots of veggies and fruits!
