Actually I was a carb lover/addict, but since starting Atkins I have developed great control over my carb cravings - I am truly amazed at the transformation!
Besides Atkins (which starts off with 20 carbs daily for 2 week induction period) there are many other lo carb plans which vary in their limitations.
I suggest you have a look at:

which lists many different types of plans. You want to ready through the boards to get an idea of which plan may work best for you!
Good luck!
