I don't think it's that quick for most people, but of course it's all anecdotal until some sort of proper research is done.

In my case it takes a week of complete abstinence from sugars. After a week the sweet cravings stop, and it feels liberating. Funny thing is, the cravings come back after a few days of eating sugars daily. We have a built-in addiction to easy calories.

It's possible, this is my personal experience not taking in any sugar for just one day.
