Bacon has 9g of protein per 3 slices (~24g). That is about 7g per 100 calories, not a significant source of protein.
Is bacon good for weight loss?
Any food can fit a weight-loss diet, because your total daily calories decide the result, not one food. Bacon is calorie-dense and easy to overeat, so keep the portion measured and fit it into your target.
Is bacon healthy?
Healthy depends on the rest of your day, not one food. Keep an eye on the fat. In a balanced diet at your calorie target, bacon is fine; the portion and how often you eat it matter more than the food itself.
