So far the consensus seems to be that most do eat veggies and/or salad almost every day...but not necessarily salad every day. I guess it is somewhat unrealistic to think I will eat a salad every day for the rest of my life.

I just don't want to get so lax that I get to a place where I'm rarely eating veggies. I've been there done that and wonder if it wasn't partly what started the spiral of going off plan.
