Losing weight around 7 kgs from 14 month

Hi Doctor, My husband is diabetic from past 8 years, he moved out of the country for job,  1 and half year back. He started losing weight from then around 7 kgs. He is on metmorfin 500 mg tablet from past 1 year after doctor prescribed here. He recently got all his blood work done, everything is normal but hba1c is 11.2. so doctor added insulin. I am worried about his weight loss. Initially first 6 months he lost around 4 kgs due to change in his food habits like morning breakfast was only bread and lunch was limited.
