I have Type 2 diabetes and want to make sure I am following the right type of diet. Can you recommend some resources?
For general information on diabetes and the diabetes diet:
• American Diabetes Association www.diabetes.org

For keeping track of your food intake, monitoring your calories and counting your carbohydrates (since they affect your blood sugar):

Also, check with your local hospital or health department to see if they offer a diabetes support group, classes, or a certified diabetes educator (CDE). Classes and intruction are often covered by insurance.
