I have sort of done this before.. I did something called Carb-Cycling.. It's great for cutting body fat and I feel like it's better at jump starting your metabolism than just simply cutting carbs out two days. My plan was:
Day 1: 1 carb
Day 2: 2 carbs
Day 3: 3 carbs
Day 4: no carbs
Day 5: cheat day
Day 6: no carbs
Day 7: no carbs
"1 carb/2 carb/3 carb" refers to the number of servings of carbohydrates you can have that day (bread, pasta, cereal, etc, veggies and fruits don't count)
Cheat day you can eat things you like, in moderation. I found this diet really kickstarted my metabolism and I lost weight quickly and kept it off as long as I followed the plan.
Let me know if you do it, good luck0
