It is a lot of red meat & i think egg which is not good for cholesterol but you do eat veggies & fruit as well.
Some people drop a fair bit of weight with it quite quickly, my dad tried it & lost a stone in a month but he didnt like all the meat & his cholesterol shot up. He did the heart watch cabbage soup diet & lost 11lbs in one week. He did that diet for 3 months,one week on, one week off & lost all the weight he had put on plus more!
He then stuck to a slimming world type eating plan. Dont mix carbs with proteins & plenty of veg & fruit, he hasnt put a 1lb bk on in over 6 years.
