Start cutting out sugary drinks. It really helps with blood sugars. I am borderline as well.
Also have you ever thought about a g-tube? I hate the idea at first but I have it and LOVE it. If I don't feel like eating some days, I know I can make up for it. Or when I am sick I still know I am going to get nutrition and I get over stuff faster. It helps with everything really. I drop to 95lbs and within a month of having it I put on 15lbs.

I struggle with my weight so bad. I look at pictures of me and am stunned by how skinny I am. I also have CFRD, which does contribute. It's a real battle to control sugars and gain weight.
I drink homoginized milk and glucerna shakes and try adding calories every which way possible. I managed to gain a couple of pounds, but if I go <i>one</i> day without keeping up the calorie intake I lose the weight.
My dietition has never once brought up a feeding tube. Wonder if that would be the answer.
But you are definitely not alone.

This doesn't help at all when it comes to why you are now struggling to maintain weight, but just in case you haven't checked yet, most Enzymes (Creon has the best in my opinion, Ultrace has a similar program) have a program where while you are taking their medication, they will send you boxes of weight gain supplements.
Also talk to your doctors if you are having trouble gaining weight... many times they have companies (like Boost Plus) send them boxes of samples that they give to patients who are struggling with weight.
Again, I know that doesn't help much with your question, but maybe a little boost in calories will make things easier. I'm so sorry you're having to face this! My brother has CFRD and it was a difficult time for him as well while he was adjusting to weight maintenance diabetes diagnoses etc.
Blessings.
