I cook the same but just dont eat the starch as well, for example tomorrow for dinner we are having grilled lemon salmon with rice and zucchini, so I will add butter to the zucchini and skip on the rice. Or I will add bread to their dinners and skip it myself. If you cook balanced meals for your family you should be fine just not eating the carbs.

We all eat the same meat (only mine is never breaded) and normally the same veggies but I add rice or potatoes for my mom & the hubs.

Tonight we had fried chicken (no flour on mine), green beans, I had fried radishes they had creamed turnips and corn on the cob.

I made up my mind I didn't need the carbs they eat when I first started Atkins. Normally I cook the meals or my mother helps so I have to watch what she does since she just cooks the way she's use to. I have a small skillet to cook my meat in just to make sure nothing else is on the meat.

I made meatloaf the other night, used pork rinds in place of crackers as the filler to keep it all together - we all eat that. I also make stuffed green peppers (Linda's recipe), another meal we all eat. Most nights it's my meal & their meal on the table though.

Ask him what he wants differently than what you are eating -- good luck.
