I'm a firm believer that you can eat what you want and still lose weight.
If you can magically figure out how many calories you need in a day to maintain your current weight and subtract 500 or so from that then you will lose weight.
The trick is to magically figure that out intuitively.
It sounds like your friend was able to do that, but for most people they need help.
They need something to figure out how many calories they need in a day to lose weight.
That's the first step.
If you want to accelerate that even further, you can start optimizing your macronutrients (protein, carbs, fat.)
You can do that with virtually any foods.
Yes, this even means chocolate, candy, fatty foods, etc.
