Fasting isn't really particularly useful as a weight loss method.

Not getting any food, your body will switch over into "starvation mode" where your metabolism slows right down.

Once you start eating again, the body will hoard the calories (as it'll still believe that food is scarce) and you'll put the weight back on even faster that you lost it.

On top of that there are all the side effects of fasting, as headaches, lack of concentration, not having the energy to do anything etc etc.

Keep it up long enough and the lack of important nutrients can even be dangerous.

There is no way to answer how long it will take to lose weight because it depends on the calories that are being eaten daily. Three things a day may have more calories than six or ten things a day. Losing weight depends on one thing: calories in = calories out.
