These are interesting comments. My normal diet of mostly starchy carbs leaves me without any cravings for sugary things even if they're just lying around near me. The moment I start eating sugary things I get hungry so fast, not just for sugary things but anything and it's hard to concentrate.
I also have a weird condition where I'll forget to eat to the point of low blood sugar, sometimes drastically so--speech or vision impairment. I've learned to recognize physical changes associated with very low blood sugar (e.g. nausea, feeling hot/cold/sweaty at normal room temp, extreme indecision) to remember to eat. Haven't found a way to stay in a normal middle ground.
You might try the keto diet for a while and see how you like it. There are two ways in which it might help you.
1. Very low carb means your blood sugar never rises sharply, and then your body doesn't over-correct which can lead to that hypoglycemic feeling.
2. Adapting to utilize primarily fat means that blood sugar largely doesn't enter into the equation and urgent eating to raise blood sugar can go away. It usually takes people days to weeks to get adapted and feel back to normal.
