 When my husband cut out carbs, he went through a withdrawal, he says. We didn't eat "much" carbs before, but I baked sourdoughbread and made kombucha, we had weekly pancakes or spaghetti, daily a piece of chocolate.. He was fighting the cravings first two weeks and felt big setbacks every time he had something at grandparents or so.
That's why I jumped now on this rough diet of one meal a day and carbs under 20g a day allover, which cuts out even veggies for now. I'm terrible overeater hung on donuts, chips and soda and honestly fear any setback will take me too hard. We can't have chocolate or chips at home as a rule, because I'd eat it whole in a minute, I know it.
But I have no withdrawal, it's 8 days now.👀 I'm happy, of course, but am I dead? Is it too soon? 
Today I stopped in the bakery and drooled over the chocolate stuff of course, but is that it? I expected worse feelings.
Will it come later? Can I enjoy some apples or carrots now?👀
That said, I bought a sauerkraut today, that should be fine and healthy on more levels.
