At this point (until you know what meds they put you on, learn to test your blood sugar, and details of your situation) I suggest it’s not so much what you should eat but what foods to decrease. Be wary of the “whites”, that is, pasta, rice, bread, potatoes. Also cut back on the volume you eat (you haven’t mentioned if your overweight), but look at a frozen dinner plate of 12-14 oz as a rough guide as to the amount of food (not heaping higher than the bowl!).

I suggest you learn to read the food labels (if you don’t already know). I myself find counting the carbs is a good starting point, limiting to a total of 40-50 carbs per meal. Carbs (my way) are the total minus the fiber. Also look at the serving, as many packages fool you into thinking the food is better for for you than another brand until you see there’s several servings in a box/can.

Also get in the habit of moving; a 15 minute walk after eating would be a great start.

The above will help you keep your blood sugar down until you know more details. Don’t worry, it’s just a detour in the road of life. I will pray for you.
