A lot of people lose the carb craving after a few days, but it doesn't work for everybody. While I didn't "crave" carbs per se, I really did not enjoy not eating bread. What really worked for me is skipping breakfast and skipping carbs for dinner (just meat and veg). Even though I don't do that every day due to social events, I can lose 1lb/week or so without much trouble.

30lb/9 month is pretty impressive, good luck with your endeavours!
