No, this just puts your body into starvation mode.

You should eat proteins, vegetables (especially leafy green ones) and a moderate amount of fruit. Natural fats like animal fats are ok too, depending on other health factors.

I am not a doctor but a ketogenic diet helped me lose weight and feel great. 230lb back down to 165lbs, but I am healthiest it seems around 183lbs.
