After about 2 months his is starting to stabilize his sugar levels to where they are supposed to be. He is also taking a pill once a day that was prescribed to him... not sure what it is. He has lost a considerable amount of weight, about 25 lbs. This concerns me because he was not what I would call overweight to start with. He seems to be loosing muscle mass. Is this normal?

My uncle (who has passed on) went through the same thing and lost a tremendous amount of weight also... but he was borderline obese and actually didn't ever look "skinny" after his sugars were controlled.
