Jesus, these people are going to kill another one with this lunacy.

That kids weight is going to skyrocket on 3200 calories, and the type two diagnosis will almost certainly happen. They'll ignore it all when it does, because of haes (diabetes isn't caused by weight, doctors just hate fat people!!!).

They will go on feeling fine and invinceable for a while, maybe years, as the high blood sugars are doing awful things to their organs and body.

Eventually, inevitably it will catch up to them in ways they can't ignore anymore. If they are very lucky and get their act together, they might avoid dying horribly from it. Most do not.

What a senseless waste of a young persons life. That it's almost entirely preventable makes it even more tragic.
