No, rather the opposite. If you fast your body will believe that food is scarce. This will prompt your body to slow down you metabolism as the body will try to hang on to every nibble for as long as possible. For efficient weight loss you need to keep eating(in controlled amounts and substances) so that your body keeps your metabolic rate up all the time.
