> One essentially removes food (in the enjoyment sense) from life

Absolutely false for me. Personally I enjoy no food more than a big steak. Definitely there is more of the satiation factor than in plant based meal, especially in something like steak with liver mincemeat. Ton of nutriets.

> I'm curious also, how old are you and how long have you been following this diet.

6 month carnivorish keto with some nuts, 4 months pretty strict carnivore (garlic and onion added to meat, sometimes coffee, that's it)

To be pedantic, including onions, nuts, or garlic isn’t the carnivore diet. Onion especially has a ton of sugar. So by your case, you kinda proved OP’s point about the difficulty of eliminating carbs in everyday life.

Onion has 9.3g carbs per 100g [1]. I add few small slices, no more than 1/4 average onion, so that ~30g of onion and 3g of carbs. Absolutely meaningless. I add that just for the taste and it is an amount that does not have any serious effect. I ate small but significant amount of nuts before, but not now so that's also not a factor now.

You may consider that 99% carnivore diet and that's absolutely ok. Another thing is that carnivore diet is not vegan-like in its choice of food products. It's all about health benefits and adding minimal amounts of vegetables that someone has no problem with isn't a big deal.

On carbs on carnivore: Honey is also considered as an animal product by most carnivore people and it has a lot of carbs obviosly.
