It's possible to bring your body fat so low that your skin actually starts to look and feel like an onion skin. Such is the case with the bodybuilders you see on TV with the rediculous muscles. However, even trained professionals can only maintain such low bodyfat levels for a few days, before irreversible damage can start to occur. It's no easy task to get that 'cut', it takes months of training and weighing of food and excriment yadda yadda ya.
Drinking only water for 4 days sounds like a real good way to get an ulcer, or even kick start your body into survival mode-where you lose muscle instead of fat and your body stores everything you eat for the next couple days. Why not water and small portions of fruits and vegetables at the same time? It sounds like your friend needs to spend less time flexing in the mirror.

It is as if the world we perceive through our senses, that whole gorgeous and terrible pageant, were the breath-thin surface of a bubble, and everything else, inside and outside, is pure radiance. Both suffering and joy come then like a brief reflection, and death like a pin" Stephen Mitchell
