You'll still probably get cravings when AROUND the breads, simply from
sight and smell.  Drink lots of water.  My favorite snack was an ounce
cube of cheddar cheese.  I love cheese and it's only something like 1
carb.  Pork rinds are good chip substitutes.  Ummm, I don't really
recall how my cravings were regarding first week versus rest, but I
don't remember them being too bad at all.  Then again, I've always
been more of a meat person rather than breads.  Though you do miss the
occasional bagel or tortilla.

And drink lots of water.  Again. ;-)
