Hello,
Uncontrolled diabetes results in weightloss,however weightloss is good in the sense that it helps in reduction of insulin resistance and there is a better control of blood sugar levels.Carry on with dietary restriction,medications and regular aerobic exercises for 45 minutes a day.
Till he is in required range of BMI,there is no problem.
Thanks
