although the 'detox' was a happy, but unintended result of the 'prep' for a stomach test.
You're certainly right about the cravings! I don't think I ever understood or maybe believed, sugar to be a real addiction, but what I'm going through now tells me otherwise..The only other addiction I'd ever experienced (or maybe recognized) was cigarettes, and while this isn't quite THAT strong, I'd say it's not too much less!...I was irritable and uncomfortable during the pre-test no- sugar, no carb diet, and then after I felt this "calm" and, for me, a surprising decline of interest in food and especially sweets.
Update:. I'm feeling some "return" of the Cravings again 
but I'm fighting it.. .Has this happened to you?..If so, how did you deal with it?
