Anyone try calorie cycling? Does it work?

Hey all,
so a friend suggested calorie cycling to break my plateau. What do you guys think? I hear there is little scientific evidence that it is better than reg calorie deficit but I need to get out of this rut!

Thanks!

    I did it for most of my journey and it broke a 7 month plateau for me ! Im not saying it works for all but for me it worked brilliantly :)

    Spiking, which is a form of calorie cycling but includes one very large calorie day, broke a six month plateau for me.
