My DH is also trying to forego carbs, he thinks I'll suffer if I see him eating them. Found a box of chocolates in the garage - that explains why he's started going out there in the evening for no particular reason. He doesn't need to lose an ounce, so I just pre-empt him and fix a serving of rice or pasta or potatoes and then tell him if he doesn't eat it all, I might be tempted. I'm not really worried about his losing weight, since he's eating a lot more fat now instead of lots of empty carb calories. But I've noticed he's losing the love handles.
