In my experience, quitting sugar and carbs reduced my overall appetite, so the cravings were gone fairly quickly. I did have a mild headache for two days.

Aside, I wonder how/when "carbs" became a euphemism for refined grains and junk food instead of just saying junk food.

Presumably you aren't talking about quitting beans and broccoli, for example, nor did you add those to your diet in place of junk food.

Yes thank you for the correction. I have eliminated starchy vegetables such as potatoes and corn.
