dear mr bhatija1955.....
Since you are overweight,decreasing upto 15-20 kgs is recomended....
I suggest you have some milk or small quantity of salad before sleeping.
As your sugars at fasting is 75..it is completly normal but still there is some chances of low sugars happening.......
Right now you continue with lifestyle modifications and exercise....
There is no need of changing medications at present.
