I think the idea is to just eat till I'm full, right? No counting calories. I'm 5'6", 24, does 4 eggs, half a kilo of chicken and some ghee a day sound good?

I have tried being a vegetarian, a fish heavy East Indian diet, and a carb heavy South Indian diet etc. Nothing much changes for me TBH. I always had issues with gaining muscle mass, no matter whether I ate once or thrice a day. But now I'm starting to have a huge mental fog and can't lift much in the gym, so going carnivore

Well, if your goal is to build mass, carnivore isn’t going to help. It’s great for your health, but not for bulking. It’ll do the opposite—you’ll get leaner.

For bulking, you need to be on a caloric surplus. It’s hard to eat enough calories for this, but easy to drink them. Add a protein shake to your diet with like 4x scoops of the powder. This will put you in caloric surplus for sure, plus you’ll have enough protein to build muscle. Consider adding creatine monohydrate to the shake while bulking.

You’ll probably gain some fat too, but you can take that off later by going back to your original diet. It sounds like you probably have an ectomorphic body type, so slimming down post-bulk shouldn’t be tough.
