Prevent complication: Maintain a normal weight through a healthy diet and regular exercise. Take meds as prescribed. See eye doctor regularly. Inspect your feet daily. Minimize all other cardiac risk factors- keep BP normal, don't smoke, keep cholesterol low.

Beware liquid calori: Many people do not think about the calories in sweetened (non-diet) drinks they consume, which can add 750-1500 calories or more to your daily intake and make diabeteic control much harder.
