This tracks very closely with my husband who was pre-diabetic then suddenly diabetic and 112 pounds at 5'10 and was loosing 3 pounds between appointments 10- days apart. He started insulin (essentially adult onset type 1) 2 years ago and life is wonderul now.

Was going to say, OP is known pre diabetic and hasn't necessarily made lifestyle changes.  Then spent the holidays eating a lot (which who hasn't, not judging).   Very well could be diabetic and that would explain the weight loss [/quote]
but[b] wouldn't frequent urination and heavy sweating [/b]be on the symptoms list?[/quote]

OP. I don't drink much water but yet when I pee I don't empty bladder and have to go a few times. After I eat also I feel the urge to pee.  Does that count as frequent urination?[/quote]
While you wait for an appointment, keep a food/urine/elimination journal. I think 6 times urinating a day is "normal".[/quote]

Urine elimination happens after a meal - is that normal (even when I don't drink water)?[/quote]
