Every once in a while I do a low carb diet, and it works great. I can usually lose about 20 lbs. of fat in 4 weeks. After the diet I can go back to eating like I regularly do, and as long as I eat healthy and stay active, I will keep off the weight. I've just started the diet again after months working behind a desk and doing little exercise due to an injury, I've put on quiet a bit of fat. My goal is to go from 188 lbs. to 170 lbs in a month. One week in, I am at 183 lbs. already. Right on schedule!
The diet works like this. Only meat and vegetables 6 days a week. No grains or fruit. One day a week I carb load, eating whatever I want and as much as I want. I take vitamin supplements to compensate for the lack of fruit. It's tough to get used to, especially breakfast, but it works great!
