And I will be a miserable crank those final 2 weeks, a major drain on the water supply, and would probably eat a bullet long before the 2 weeks were up.

My mother in-law, the magic chef I keep mentioning has type two. It's like watching someone trying to maximize stupidity daily.
She makes bad, Horrible foods. Then she tries it, and eats white bread until she is full. She hates exercise and she thinks sugar is the thing to look out for, as in sugar coming from a bag, not any other form of it. She has been on oral meds for about 15 years and now she refuses to move to injections since those make you fat and they destroy your life...
She also tells my husband he will also get type two since we don't eat enough bread, we eat mostly meat and greens and our kids get a bad example from us since we make them eat fatty, non processed foods.
Kids of course need more calories and more carbs to grow, but we two are pushing 40, we need to keep muscle mass up and blood sugars steady.
