No. Simply eating less won't do squat for you unless you're eating the right foods. All it will do is starve him for energy and have his body telling him that he's hungry all the time until he finally cracks and goes back to eating more.

Weight loss is all about controlling hormones, in particular insulin. But don't worry, I don't have to get all scientific on you because keeping your insulin levels down is easy: just avoid eating sugar, wheat products, and starchy vegetables like potatoes. Focus on eating meat, some fruits and vegetables, and nuts, seeds or oils (ie: olive oil or coconut oil) at every meal and snack. If you can up your physical activity some more (and it's pretty easy to fit in at least 10-20 minutes somewhere in the day) then even better.
