This sounds very much like the Alternate-day Fasting Diet, which has
become quite popular (among many other diet plans, of course).
Search for - alternate day fasting diet - for many articles.

I found a small study done in 2017 -----

Effect of Alternate-Day Fasting on Weight Loss, Weight Maintenance,
and Cardioprotection Among Metabolically Healthy Obese Adults  A
Randomized Clinical Trial
John F. Trepanowski, PhD1; Cynthia M. Kroeger, PhD1,2; Adrienne
Barnosky, MD1; et al

It doesn't seem to do any harm, but may not be better than a
general calorie restriction diet.
