Eins,
Who is to say that the 2-3 lb. is overweighting? Maybe you're thinking from the wrong direction - First, a enough high quality undergarment (best insulation per thickness)to be warm throughout the dive - Next, enough air to keep that undergarment comfortable (no pinches) - and LAST, sufficient weight to be neutral at the end of the dive.
I think the problem you describe is insufficient insulation.
fwiw
