Dad had type 1 and was insulin dependent for over 60 years so I grew up in a diabetic household .The doctors say the reason Dad lived so long was attention to diet . He never ate sugar or sugary foods.
So you can class me as an 'amateur dieticians' but I would say with my family history I am more qualified than many to comment on the subject .

you only asked about eggs 
As Sheila is only 'borderline' I would think there is a good chance if she takes heed of the diet sheet,keeps her weight down and takes a little exercise daily the condition may not progress
.My Bother in Law had a routine check and was found to be 'borderline' and being aware of my aunt who lost both legs changed his lifestyle (he like his beer) his diet and his exercise. The next time he had a check up his blood sugar was lower which the Doctor said was almost certainly down to the changes he had made. It has stayed lower no more action was necessary.
