what is the minimum amount of grams of sugar on an 1800 calorie ADA diet should a diabetic have?

I have been a diabetic for 3-1/2 years and have only lost 15 pounds during that time even though I walk three miles a day six days a week and eat an 1800 calorie ADA diet of 35-40 carbs a day. What do I need to do to lose at least 15 more pounds?
