It looks like you sugar is well under control with current medication. In my opinion you should get a thyroid profile checked. It is very common that both Diabetes and Thyroid problems occur at the same time. If you have hyperthyroidism, then it needs to be treated separately. Your weight issues will be solved.
Hope the answer helped.
