I'm trying to look for a good diet. Any suggestion that worked or is working for other males?

A good diet for anyone includes lots of fruits and vegetables ,lean cuts of meat,poultry and fish, sufficient calcium and 8 glasses of water a day minimum.

my boyfriend averages eating 1500 calories a day and manages to lose 3 pounds a week and doesn't exercise (which is not good). He has lost 50 + pounds though and is looking really good.

I tell you that he doesn't exercise because imagine how much better he could be doing if he has been working out this whole time.

Diet's don't work! How about just eating healthy, natural foods and making a lifestyle change? Lots of fruits, veggies, whole grains, lean meats, protein, fiber and lots of water.

He would definitely need to eat A LOT more calories if he was working out. 1500 is REALLY low for a man.

Don't forget to cut out all the crappy processed foods and high fat/calorie fast food. No soda and little juice if you can help it. Alcohol is a big suprise in calories for many people. I agree too, DIETS don't work. That's how to become a YO-YO!!

Actually if I eat below 1500 calories my MFP tells me that I am possibly putting my body in starvation mode which I think means I'm losing muscle mass also. I'm pretty careful about getting more than that but I also have diabetes to contend with as well.
