David,
Welcome to the forum. About the no salad salad thing
I didn't think I would be eating salads either simply because I'd really burnt out on them with my previous months of attempting weight loss.
One thing you can do is use your lettuce, peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes ... any "salad" type foods as wraps or fillers with your meats and cheeses. I wrap lettuce around the outside of a cheeseburger, use mushrooms, a slice of red pepper, and a slice of tomato as a topping or filler. I do similar things with meats I used sliced for lunch or between meals snacks.
Don't be afraid to experiment with your acceptable foods and check out some of the suggestion that fit into the induction phase in the recipe area here: http://forum.lowcarber.org/forumdisplay.php?f=2
If you're in doubt about something that meets the induction requirements ask here in the forum. Everyone is very helpful and friendly.
Good luck to you and your wife!
