Yup, I agree 100% with Phaenx. You can't get "buff" without taking in some protein, and fueling those workouts with carbs.

Personally, I did a lot better with my personal fitness when I threw out the scale. Lifting 3x a week + eating better (NOT less) + aerobics 3x a week made the fat just melt off me. I ate a lot MORE, not less.

Phaenx has great advice, if your friend wants to get buff, maybe he would listen to a personal trainer or a nutritionist. Do you have enough money to give him a gift of a few sessions? Might be a great way to teach him.
