I believe the South Beach Diet is what you're looking for. It combines low cabs with low fat.

The standard diabetic diet covers a lot of needs- sugars, fats, cholesterol, etc.

One thing I really like about the American Diabetes Society's version is the "Rate Your Plate" bit that lets you quickly determine basic ratios- 1/4Th of the plate for meat/protein, 1/4Th for starch/pasta, and 1/2 for (non-starchy) veggies. Finish with skim milk and fruit. Simple and portions-based rather than points, calories, weights, etc.

They are basically the same diet, eat healthy and watch portions. Exercize plays a big role in it also.

Yes, the South Beach Diet. It was actually designed by a cardiologist for better health,(and of course weight loss)for his heart patients, a good percentage of whom were diabetic. The book "The South Beach Diet" is in paperback now, I got mine at Walmart for $5.77. It is also the easiest diet I have ever been on. And I am a HUGE bread lover!! I hope you get and read the book regardless of whether you try the diet because it is a treasure of info.
