I did this consistently for a few months and Toby did lose a pound or two. I was complaining about that being all to my local, natural dog store owner. She informed me that was great!! She said it can take months for a beagle or other small-ish dog to lose just a pound or two. I guess she had a point - I wanted Toby to lose 4-5 lbs., that's quite a bit when he is 30lbs. to begin with! I have kinda gotten lazy about it, though, so he hasn't lost anymore and has probably put back on what he did lose!
I have heard just to keep the full amount of food the same. For instance if you normally feed 1 cup of food, you could do 1/2 cup kibble and 1/2 cup green beans.
