If you are losing weight very fast without trying, it could mean your sugars are extremely high. Instead of looking for magic solutions, get a simple blood sugar test done. Eat simple ghar ka khana like dal, sabzi, and roti, and see a doctor.

I lost almost 8 kgs in a month before I was diagnosed and thought it was great, but it was actually a dangerous sign of uncontrolled diabetes. Please don't ignore sudden weight loss. Go see your doctor immediately to check your levels.

Don't buy those weight loss powders or green tea remedies advertised online for diabetics. Unexplained fast weight loss in diabetes is a medical issue, not a fitness achievement. Get your HbA1c checked and consult your doctor.

Rapid weight loss is common when sugars are very high because the body starts burning muscle for energy. Along with blood pressure, I always keep a track of my weight. Do a complete health checkup to find the real cause.
