Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
How long does it take you to get over the carb-crazies when you're getting back into induction?
No really, how long?
For me, the first three days make me bat-sh*t crazy with desire to eat sugar.
Then, it's still bumpy for two more weeks.
Then, pretty smooth sailing until I encounter something really verboten and carbtastic, l**** chocolate-chip cookies, homemade, fresh from the oven (not my oven, I promise!)

Interested in low-carb nutrition? Thinking of trying Atkins? Want to try high-fat and/or high-protein eating? Whether or not you have had (or are thinking about) WLS http://www.obesityhelp.com/group/atkins/
For me it is 2-3 days. Then maybe a week? But then - I try to avoid splenda and sugar alcohols. SA affect me and my blood sugar. But then most carbs do - even complex carbs.
I do eat carbs now, but not many. Mostly fruits and veggies.. I may have some corn chips, but I do limit that to 1 oz. Honestly - really do not want more than that ebven when I can.
Last night I reached for a bad of chips... realized that really do not want any... and had a few nuts instead.
