L - your men and their issues would be the end of me. I would accomodate DH because it's a health issue but little man would get tough love - eat what we have or don't eat. Said with LOVE of course. You should get a South Beach diet cookbook from the library - it fits a lot of the requirements that Jeff has - meat and lots of veggies, low in carbs.
When you are BFing you will likely need to make some carbs for yourself to avoid being hungry. I am always starving when I'm BFing.
ETA: L, if you don't have one, you might want to get a Foreman grill for cooking meat when it gets too cold or annoying to grill outside. It sounds like you need to basically plan meat-veggie or salad - carb (potatoes, rice, mac/cheese whatever) for each meal and if Jeff doesn't want to eat the carb he doesn't have to kwim?
For meats can you try some marinades to make them more interesting? For veggies I'd do a search at allrecipes or foodnetwork's website for "salads" - you'll get a lot more options than just lettuce salads, I always get good ideas from there.
