Probably the weight loos is caused by diabetes.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

My name is Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi.

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Weight loss can be related to many causes but in your case I think that is related to diabetes.

In diabetes the body cells don't get enough glucose and burn the fat for energy.

The only thing that I suggest you is to manage diabetes.Some advices that I can give to you are :
-try to control your glicemia level,use a blood glucose monitor
-avoid food high on sugar and salt
-choose food that contains fiber, sutured fat,low sugar,low salt.
-If you don't get better consult a nutritionist for a diabetes diet plan.

Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have any other questions feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
