Will Lack Of Insulin Help Me Pass My Drug Test ?

I am diabetic and occaisionaly smoke marijuana. I am expecting a drug test in a week or so and i smoked yesterday. I am trying everything i can to flush my system in time to pass. I would like to know (yes I know it is BAD, but its only for a few days) if reducing my insulin by a certain amount to burn fat and pee alot would flush out my system. Please answer as soon as possible i really need the information.
