Welcome to hcm,
Short answer.your wight loss is because of longstanding uncontrolled blood sugar.
Detailed answer.
Long standing uncontrolled sugar will give many complications. So I recommend you to have adequate exercises.
Next thing is dietary food regulations.
And medications if it is not controlled by oral medication you can change to insulin regimen as your treating physician advice.
Hope this explains
With regards
