Don't listen to the bro science. She can eat starches and bread and pasta and all that shit. Its called if it fits your macros. Develop a plan and have her start tracking macros and get on a program in the gym 5-6 days a week. She can lose the weight without being miserable. I cant stand when people say "oh starve yourself practically, no carbs, no bread, no this, no that, no oxygen, no water, no sleep.." Stop believing the lie. Good luck on her journey!
