    I went low carb (<20 per day) a few years ago. Totally killed my sugar addiction and I no longer have any cravings. I don't eat any grain products at all and don't miss them. The only time I will have a craving for sugar or grains is when I drink alcohol. So I limit that as well. I now stick to around 50 net carbs a day - all from veggies, nuts and some dairy products. I dropped about 25 pounds total.

    I went off track for a couple of months (March to June) and gained about fifteen of those back. It's amazing how quickly it can come back. I have been back on track for almost a month now and have lost about half of those pounds. I expect it to take a few more months to get the rest off.
