Default after dinner sweet derailment

Hi All,

Does the after dinner sweet craving subside? I have been doing Atkins for a couple of days - feeling good, but got way too hungry before dinner tonight. I ended up having a few frozen grapes after dinner because I was still feeling hungry. BIG MISTAKE - the grapes might as well have been chocolate for the intense blood sugar spike they caused. Not going to kick myself though
(I'm really good at that!) -- I quickly had some leftover turkey from dinner to try and counterbalance the effect of the stupid grapes.

When do the cravings subside? I think the problem was that I let myself get too hungry, not that I was having a sugar craving. Though I am only two days without sugar and am probably still going through withdrawal.

Tomorrow is a new day and I plan to start again -- not giving up on me!!

G'night all...
