I've experienced similar results on a low-carb vegan diet - no hunger, mental clarity etc.

I'd like to hear more about your diet. I was a vegan before switching to meat only.
It may be as boring as the all meat diet =).

Nuts, avocados vegetables, leafy greens, mushrooms, berries. Coconut and olive oils.

Most of the time this manifests as:

- Salad with nuts in it. Dressing is chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt and olive oil, which seems to go really well with leafy greens. I can eat this salad for one meal everyday.

- Some kind of a curry or stir fry or soup with vegetables and mushrooms.

- Frozen berries for dessert.

- Salted pistachios for snaking.

It is easy to follow but it does get boring. So, when I crave something else like dessert or bread or fish or whatever then I indulge. That makes it easy to follow the regular diet the rest of the time.

Thanks a lot! I've taken some notes.
You bet!
Update: I am now on the "mostly nuts and berries" diet, with occasional steamed vegetables, and feeling amazing.
