Not going anywhere, really. It's just that he seems to veto anything you could put on the menu. It made me think he must have been eating something before going on a diet.

I'd go for potatoes. They're legal and you say he could do them. Does he like legumes?

Potatos sound like a good idea. I made him chili last night. Ground venison, pinto beans, onions, bell peppers, tomatos, and chili powder. This morning he was up 3 pounds so he says he's not eating beans anymore.

Ok Yup he is quite picky. But he had quite a sweet tooth. And he ate things like speghetti and burritos.

Is he still counting his carbs? Does he know what his CCLL is? How many carbs did he have on average this week?

Why can't I have this problem??? I'd love to just not be able to stop losing weight - get to goal, keep losing and then need to eat more to just add a few pounds back on. This sounds like a dream come true to me!!

He'll eat anywhere from 20 to 80. I'm still working on his CCLL since I haven't really found anything that makes him stop losing yet.

Will he eat baked potato? One medium one eaten with its skin has about 23 net carbs or if he leaves the skin it would be about 21 net carbs and could be eaten with plenty of butter/cheese etc to make it more palatable.
Easy to cook, can be microwaved for speed and you would not have to be tempted to eat some too if you only bake one, unlike if you were preparing mashed potatoes or similar.
