Hi @Elrond1970 and a warm welcome to the forum - there are many many users on here who can help you with everything you have mentioned and more - have a look through the previous threads (need to start a Christmas Food thread...)

Hello everyone,

Welcome to the forum. If you say a little more about how you manage your condition, what medication you might be taking, what your HbA1C is and what dietary regime you are currently following as that will help people make appropriate suggestions.
There is plenty here to have a look at and many find that they have found a low carb approach successful along the lines of the Freshwell program, https://lowcarbfreshwell.com/
It is based on a suggested no more than 130g carbs per day, that is quite generous which still allows for treats but just probably not everyday.
