If your friend is a male, suggest the South Beach Diet. Years ago several of us that worked together tried it. The males of the group did very well, loosing between 20 and 50 lbs. We dropped the weight much faster than the females which motivated us to stick with the diet.
The no carbs for 2 weeks is critical for starting the weight loss. It was a tough 2 weeks, but the results were great. Unless you a going to implement a major cardio program, you need to limit the carbs as they become the fat that you don't want.
