Get your blood sugar fasting, pp and hba1c to assess the dose of metformin.
If these tests show acceptable values then continue metformin in the same dose otherwise modify it.
Please consult a physician who will try to findout cause of weight loss continuously.

Only if there us is insulin resistance proved with acanthosis or blood investigation you need to use metformin to work or otherwise it's like using it without purpose but it might cause dizziness.
