Diabetics should be very careful about asking strangers how to eat. You should see a registered dietician or a diabetic specialist and find out exactly what and when you should eat.
Be careful with this because you are at high risk for developing ketoacidosis,
Diabetics still need to watch their diets, and if they take insulin to cover the food they eat, and over-eat, they will gain weight. However, if they don't take enough insulin, they will stay thin or lose weight, but in the long term it will ruin their kidneys, feet, eyes, etc.
a diabetic insulin dependent can gain weight by maintaing healthy diet and proper medication , the non -insuli dependent can gain weight if the blood sugar is low and can maintain good diet, proper medication
Eat salads regularly, no meat or any non-veg stuff included

Your problem is not easy to solve. Most of us have a hard time keeping the number of carbs to a minimum so we don't have to take so much insulin. Insulin packs on the pounds for most of us.
You might try to adjust your food plan, which means you might need to adjust your insulin regime as well.
Yes, it is hard to gain for some people and just as hard to lose for others.
