Well don't forget that the more insulin floating around in the bloodstream the less the body is inclined to release fat for burning. It's not really a matter of how high the BG reading, but how much insulin you've released. As a diabetic, we're not going to lose weight like 'normal' folks. I have noticed, however, that when my BG is running high I'm less inclined to drop weight. I am currently on a 4 month 'stall' but I'm not concerned as I'm not gaining any weight (and being female my weight tends to fluctuate by a few pounds anyway due to cycles) and since I'm going to be eating this way for the rest of my life I'm just not putting any 'worry points' toward being concerned about weight. Oh, I still have about 50 more pounds to lose, but I'm confident it will come off, eventually. I've lost 30 so far....
