Turkey and salad bar sounds perfect!
Try not to get discouraged, just about everyone has a slight gain when starting phase 2. Whenever you add back any carbs, some water will come back too. It takes a bit for things to level out.
I am almost 4 months into SBD and for weight loss still only have one to two fruits a day, one grain and one glass of wine as my carbs. That's me, you might be able to tolerate more. Also I am not a grain lover so one a day is fine for me, I prefer having more fruit. Also the salt on my cashews was causing a stall and getting unsalted worked that out.
So it will take a little bit of trial and error to figure what your body responds too and what stalls it. The water retaining issue does definitely mask real weight loss and can get you discouraged. After I gave up the salt on the cashews, woosh, two pounds fell off!
