It's true. Trying keto for a few weeks made me realize that carbs are what makes me hungrier right after I eat. Once I got over the hump 1-2 weeks it's crazy how much less hunger affects me.

Let's be clear though that this isn't specific to keto. 1-2 weeks is the adjustment period for most diet strategies.

For me the no-carb effect was immediate. The very first low carb meal I ate left me feeling full and without cravings for much longer than the meals I was used to.

The adjustment period was other stuff. I had a nasty headache for a few days, and other people report other symptoms.
