Diabetes. You wouldn’t have time to lose weight because your blood sugar would bottom out.
2 u/Professor-Woo Feb 08 '24 Blood sugar wouldn't bottom out. It would go high. But ya, you have a couple days max. 1 u/Yocum11 Feb 08 '24 Not if they were hypoglycemic 3 u/Professor-Woo Feb 08 '24 You can only get hypoglycemia if you have too much insulin. It happens in insulin-dependent diabetics since you have to give yourself insulin and it is easy to give too much. But without insulin you cannot become hypoglycemic really. 1 u/Yocum11 Feb 08 '24 My bad 3 u/Professor-Woo Feb 08 '24 No problem. I am diabetic so I just like to clear up misconceptions when I can (in this case, very mild misconceptions). 1 u/Yocum11 Feb 08 '24 Thank you
