I need edvise for my friend.

Question
Hi. I need your expert opinion for a friend of mine. Now he currently weighs about 195 lbs. and is about 5'11-6' But hes been getting really depressed lately. And now he is only eating very little food. Like he would have an egg for breakfast and like 2 slices of cheese throughout the day and around dinner time he would have a fruit snack or some fruit. He used to eat A LOT of junk food (thus how he got to 195 lbs). I'm really worried for him becuase he used to weigh 136 lbs (at the height of about 5'9-5'10). I don't want him to get down to that weight again. Plus the fact that he dances full fledged (about 2 hour) concerts almost every other day with a lot of dancing.

Now I'm really worried for him, becuase I don't want him to get back down to 136 lbs. at his height. I just need to know, how much weight will he loose and how fast? Because I'm trying everything to get him to eat more. I just need to know whats going to happen to happen to his body and at what rate.

Thanks for your help.

Eli-

Frankly he is starving himself and that can do a LOT of damage to him that can last a lifetime. Everything from internal organ damage, further depression, muscle loss with fat retention, hormonal and cognitive damage and more.

What you freind needs to do is get a grasp on eating but eating real food and not junk all the time, meats, dairy, eggs, veggies, nuts and fruit as opposed to all the junk and then going into starvation mode.
