I tried this a couple times to unstall me and I was able to drop 2 to 3 pounds each time. I only do it for 3 days and eat as much meat as I please (eat when hungry and stop when full!). I basically ate bacon, hebrew national hot dogs (1 carb a dog), steak, and chicken. I did use condiments such as Walden Farms ketchup, bernaise sauce, and Steel's sweet and sour sauce (yum!). Good luck!
