I've managed to survive two weeks so far, and I don't believe I've gone over my carb limit more than once or twice, and even then, only by a very little.
It's strange feeling such a strong shift away from the constant desire for food, and easily overeating every time I'm hungry. Similarly, I'm not finding myself craving the "bad foods" in the way I did prior to starting and at this point, I only want food with carbs incidentally, rather than because of the carbs. This weekend in particular was tough because I wanted to eat at my favorite place in Philly, but the food there is far outside my carb limit.
In other news, I'm down a total of 12.4 lbs so far, having hit 323.6 yesterday afternoon.
I will say, I am looking forward to my "cheat week", where we'll be trying out a bunch of healthy, but higher-carb recipes from the "Thug Kitchen" blog.
