Hi, I've been keeping a MyFitnessPal diary for nearly 3 months now, and a week ago got a friend to start keeping one too. His starting weight is 23st (Males, 21, 5ft 10) and is seriously unfit. Below is an average day for him:

Cathedral City Cheddar (60g) - 250cal
Hovis Wholemeal (6 slices) - 342cal
Smoked bacon (5 rashes) - 250cal
Fry light (10 sprays) - 10cal

WW Lemon slices (1 slice) - 80cal
WW Belgian Choc (2 slice) - 176cal
WW Coconut cake (2 slice) - 166cal
Cadbury Crunchie Bar (1bar) - 185cal

Diet Coca-Cola (1 litre) - 4cal
Dr Pepper Zero (1.5 litre) - 9cal
Sprite Zero (1 litre) - 12cal
Pear Squash (500ml) - 3cal

Total - 1490cal Carbs - 169 Fat - 57 Protein - 68 Sugar - 85 Sodium - 3441

Now, I know that his calorie intake is actually pretty low, but it just isn't healthy is it? I've tried telling him this, but because he's already losing weight (which I am guessing is down to his massive size) he thinks it alright.

I posted this in here because he's meant to be doing slimfast, but when he does he make them with 500ml full fat milk. So, what do you guys think?
 
No it's not the best health wise, but what he consumes is his business, he won't thank you for nagging him about it, first things first he is loosing weight which has to be a good thing right? If you go on at him he may well give up altogether, or even worse end up falling out with you:( when he hits a plateau then maybe you could encourage him to consider what he is eating and help him change his diet bit by bit.
I hope this helps, it can be frustrating at times I know, but if you can set a good example he may also be encouraged by your successes ;)
