The problem with being a carnivore is that most people do it very very wrong. Lets back up abit and see why vegan and vegetarian works so well.
Vegan (no animals and animal byproducts) in zoology is an Herbivore. The food is the least power-packed and herbivores eat alot of food all of the time. They are the high-energy high-activity animals in nature.
Vegetarians (often allowing animal byproducts such as milk and cheese, and some are willing to eat fish and chicken) in zoology are omnivores. Like rats, and bears, and man. They are midrange in the areas of input and output. They can do well with some exercise, and 3 meals a day.
Carnivores (eat animals). And in zoology they are able to be the lowest active animals. Lying around much of the time. Sounds good? It can be if you do it by the rules. Most carnivores that come to mind eat animals, not just meat. (only very tiny things eat just meat). Carnivores generally eat brains, and stomachs of herbivores with all of the ingrediants, and fur/feathers, etc etc. Plus.. they eat that meat very rarely. Once a day, some once a week, some much longer. The really large snakes and gators can go up to almost a year. And that works for them because they move very little between meals.
For a human to be a "carnivore" they CANNOT eat meat 3 meals a day and not be active. And it will horribly clog their system without replacing fur/feather with other system scrubbers (believe me the preferable alternative is fiber). So to pull it off means a day of basically a high fiber cereal breakfast, and a meat meal every few days.
OK Im not very active. I live/work/play on the internet. (Did you know that internet is fattening?) And I love meat. I wont declare meat evil. But I am fully aware of what it would take for me to have a "carnivore diet". But I cannot go so far between decent meals as I should to be a carnivore. In general I eat a fiber breakfast (fur and feather scrubbers), a vegetable/fruit lunch (organs and uneaten meals in the herbivore), and a mostly meat supper. And I keep over half of those in the fish/fowl territory basically putting days between the meals of heavier meats.
I love meat but I understand and follow the rules or I balloon up terribly.

I love meat, especiall steaks. I'm such a pig when it comes to red meat. I'll eat a huge steak, and then whoever around me doesn't finish theirs, I'll wind up eating the rest of THAT! It's gross, and terribly unhealthy but I can't help it. I often times find myself feeling sorry about eating it though. I love animals.
The only thing I DON'T eat is pork. I saw a pig on TV one time getting carried away for slaughter and it was crying so badly. Never again.

I am a carnivore as well. I love my steak too, but I often do feel extremely guilty eating meat. I have definitely cut back on it though.

Neither. Most people are omnivores. I think you would have a hard time finding a person who is a carnivore.
I'm a (lacto)vegetarian.

I'm with you...I like my meat. Don't eat it everyday but I would miss it if I didn't have it in my diet.
