So your only goal is weight-loss? No other health issues your trying to fix/ improve?
What you need is to be in a calorie deficit - burn more calories than you consume.
If carnivore is a way of eating you enjoy and that shows you to be in a calorie deficit, then yes, it's a good idea. If it's going to même you miserable, then no it's a bad idea because it's not sustainable in the long-term.0
