I had this reduced craving thing with alcohol first. When I started low-carbing I found that I just didn't want wine (which is all i've ever drunk) as much anymore. I think it is a blood sugar thing. Low carb = lower blood suger = less craving for sugar = less craving for alcohol. So now that I've quit smoking, although it's not been what I'd call extremely easy, it does seem to be a bit better than when I'd tried to quit before low carb WOE. I hope that continues. I have found that my appetite when at home has increased and I've been a bit slack on that the last 4 days, I'm ready to reel myself back in and don't think it will be that difficult. I've developed a new and strange craving for chocolate, but I'm now putting the kibosh on that after today. So all in all, I'd say it's been better all the way 'round this time. Maybe I'm a bit more resolute now than before as well. As they say, "it's all in the timing of it."
