Hello... Your readings of random blood sugar 279 and Hb1Ac 11 % with BMI suggest u are having type 2 diabetes..!! You are young and overweight and their are high chances of reversing your diabetes with wt loss which u have already started and it  has  shown results with significant decrease in your sugar levels....!! Still your sugar levels are not in target u need to keep FBS below 130 and PP below 180 with Hb1Ac below 7... If u can achieve this with your diet and exercise it will be great then no need to start medicine,, But for that u need to monitor your sugar levels frequently. U consult endocrinologist to look for any comorbidities also and need of starting any medicine
Next Steps
Continue diet and exercise to lose few more kilos
