Sugar is a cheap energy form for the body. Could it be that LC could be viewed by the body as some type of starvation (especially if in ketosis), so the sugar cravings kick in so that you will select carb choices for energy? The body has to work harder to make glucose for the brain out of protein and fats.

b/c I notice that these cravings have intensified, too.
