Congratulations!
You must be doing a lot of things right.
I highly recommend Dr Bernstein's book on controlling blood sugar:
https://www.amazon.com/Dr-Bernsteins-Diabetes-Solution-Achieving/dp/0316182699When I was diagnosed diabetic, the "Certified Diabetes Educator" was pushing a low-fat diet - the kind guaranteed to raise blood sugars.
Yikes!
Dr Bernstein is himself a diabetic, and formerly an engineer - probably even nerdier than being a programmer.
Get the book and read it - he explains it all.
