I've been trying to be low carb for the last couple years and I think it's overall gone well, but I really struggle with what to eat still.

I hear your points about protein, cheese, and nuts, but then what do you eat? Can you list out a few complete days of your meals?

Breakfast: eggs + bacon or sausage or leftover steak

Lunch: salad and leftover protein (with oil, vinegar, and mustard dressing)

Dinner: meat, fish, or poultry (simply prepared) with roasted vegetables and salad

Snacks: coffee with butter and coconut oil, raw veggies, leftover meat

I want this so badly but I feel I'm set up to fail due to how much I hate vegetables. I just can't enjoy salads.

I wonder if the "this tastes awful" response will change as I move away from carbs?

Not all salads are equivalent. A mashed avocado kale salad is simply wicked:

The avocado makes it really creamy and rich.

keep adding fat to your salad until you start to like it - bacon, cheese, eggs, olive oil. Then you can start to pull back on the fat a bit.
