This study is looking at how a special diet, called caloric restriction, affects how the body uses sugar and fats in people with Type 2 Diabetes. Researchers want to see if eating 900 calories a day, using meals from "Nutritional Guidelines after Bariatric Surgery," can improve how the body responds to glucagon (a hormone that raises blood sugar). You might be able to join if you are 25-65 years old, have Type 2 Diabetes managed by diet or oral medications, and a BMI of 28 or higher. The main goal is to measure how a specific amino acid (leucine) is used when glucagon levels change. The study is currently unclear on its status and plans to enroll 20 participants.

Study design
