as far as weight loss, yes it works...at first. after awhile, her metabolism will adjust to how much she is eating and she'll find out her weight won't go down anymore unless she stops eating completely. at this point, with her metabolism so slow, if she eats even an extra cookie (anything that pushes her over what she normally eats), she'll probably gain weight...and gain it back fast.

Starving yourself causes your body to think something is wrong. Then when you eat something, your body will try to store it (usually as fat) so it will have something to run on if you starve yourself again. You also don't get vital nurishment that you body needs to be healthy. Eating smart is the best way.

No it doesn't because your metabolism slows down in order to accommodate the lack of food. Once you return to eating again, you're stuffing food into a very slow metabolism so it will just turn to fat.
Long term, it doesn't work and it's very hurtful to your health.

well you kinda lied to her, which you should've told her the truth but it's good that your helping her get off the diet.
