Type 2 Diabetes is NOT just about weight. Loosing weight can only help and more than with just your diabetes. However, as I understand it, it is a progressive disease. If you currently have Type 2 and loose weight and get off meds, as it's progressive, if you live long enough, I'd think it's likely you will eventually have problems again with Type 2.
