Yup, carb addiction is real. Your body is just asking for carbs. It took me around 1 month to stop the cravings. Now I can look at my family eating sweets and bread and I couldn't care less.

Anyway, you can make the transition easier by paying attention to electrolyte balance and eating veggies. If you want to try the carnivore 0 carb diet, I strongly recommend that you first do 1 month of keto with a lot of healthy veggies. Once your body is used to a very low carb intake, you can go one step further with the carnivore diet. I'm personally quite happy with the keto diet (and I like veggies, no reason to stop eating those).

What veggies are you eating?

As a rule of thumb I avoid any that:
1) Grow underground.
2) Brightly coloured.

As they tend to be more carb heavy than others.

 

Salad, spinach, kale, broccoli and other similar vegetables. In general I stay below 15g of carbs per day.

Pemalite said he is on a no carb diet and bulking, but bulking is completely different than dieting, and I have no clue about the specifics of his regimen. 

Well, typically "no carb bulking" simply requires to stay in a caloric surplus and eating enough protein so that your body is in a positive nitrogen balance. There really isn't anything more than that. You can easily do that without eating carbs, you just need to eat more fats and/or protein. There are entire communities that discuss this topic and help athletes that for some reason don't want to or can't eat carbohydrates.
