I used it several times ~8 years ago, but found cheese or cream cheese just made me hungrier, and 3 bigger "meals" worked better than 5 micro-meals (which just made me constantly think & obsess about food). I modified it a bit, but stuck to the principle of 80+% fat by eating ~1250 cals/day, getting 50-60g protein & the rest fat (mayo & butter mainly) - that was the lowest I could go without experiencing hunger pangs.
The fat fast did jump start my loss, but then I'd stall for a month. In the long run I lost the same in 3 months with 5 fat fasts as I lost on 3 mos on induction without having to endure hunger. So I stopped using the fat fast and just went on meat, eggs & fat to get past stalls without the calorie constriction, but with 80+% fat.
