My husband is on a special weight loss diet where for the next week or so he will only be able to eat meats (no carbs, no veggies). So this week I am trying to make things that he can eat, with nutritious sides for the rest of us to have. Is there anyone else in this situation? If you have special or restricted diets for one member of the family, how do you handle it? What about tips for coming to terms with watching family eat 'forbidden foods?' (other than eating separately)
