A salad with two cups of lettuce and a half cup of two vegetables each in your salad, with 4 ounces of a protein in it is great for losing weight. Eat this twice a day.  But, you will not lose weight if you sabotage it with high-carb items, which can :

1.  Croutons

2. Tortilla strips

3.  A starchy vegetable like corn or peas

4.  Pasta

5:  Sun-dried tomatoes (eat fresh ones)

6.  Candied nuts

7.  High-carb salad dressing

8.  Barbeque sauce (high in sugar)

9. Don’t eat it with bread

10.  Rice or beans (a few beans are ok, but high in carbs, so watch it).

A good salad can also be delicious and filling.  Eat healthy and you will enjoy it!
