You need to increase your protein intake as you have lost a lot of muscle mass from the body. Which is normal for a diabetic. Eat every two hours. And always combine protein and carbohydrate foods. For a customized diet plan contact on private chat.

Hello Mr. Lybrate user. It's good that you have controlled diabetes since 7 years But with information provided you have lost significant amount of weight I personally feel it's not due to diabetes it can be due to either poor nutrition or some chronic infectious disease Get your CBC ESR AND CHEST x ray done Till then just start taking D- protein two tea spoon in glass of milk after walking You can contact me once your reports comes.
