I would not recommend this. A zero carb diet is not healthy and may actually be harmful to the liver, especially long-term.
There is controversy that's true. But as far as all of my reading has gone it is quite healthy. But regardless, the simple fact is fat and protein is digested by the stomach, and the other stuff isn't. If you're using an ostomy bag, that other stuff just goes into the bag. So it's not doing your body any good. So carnivore is especially appropriate for people on ostomy bags.
A high fiber diet with an ostomy bag is just filling the bag up very quickly with gas.
