  • The sweet tooth I've never had..

    So, I have never in my life craved chocolate or sugary snacks. I always went for greasy, fried foods and breads. I am now on my 3rd day of induction and though my salt craving has gone, I have am DYING for something sweet. Is this normal?
    Any tips to push through it?

    Yes it's normal. It's part of carbohydrate withdrawal.

    Eat something that's high fat, like cheese, or a combination of something high fat and protein, like an hard-boiled egg.

    Some folks 're-train' their sweet tooth by feeding it sour or spicy foods like dill pickles or pickled jalapeno peppers!

      Cool! Thanks. It seemed really odd, especially since I barely even like chocolate.

        Yeah, Induction is a strange beast like that. Also, you might start liking foods you never cared for before, so feel fry to experiment!
