It took me just a few days to stop craving sweets (less than a week, about
3 days, if memory serves right). It took me about 3-4 weeks to stop
actively craving starchy foods. By this I mean to stop wanting them on the
regular basis even without having had some. It took me several months before
I stopped craving them after I had some. At that point I could eat some and
stop and not want more. After a little over a year starchy foods stopped even
being appealing. The only time this changes is when I carb up massively for
some reason, and then I have to go through a few days of readjustment.
(The only reason I cheat is either social - dating, parties, and such, or
when I get a flu. I have to carb up to really run a fever and get better).
