The answer is yes and no - depending on what you have in that salad. Obviously, lots of greens and vegetables with little or no salad dress will increase your weight loss. However, most of us love to slather on that ranch or ceasar dressing and it sort of defeats the purpose of eating a salad to lose wight.

∙ 11y agoStarting your meals with a salad is a great way to lose or maintain weight. However, not all salads are created equal. Adding protein like chicken, lean meats, fish and beans to your salad turns it in to a low-calorie, filling meal. But high-fat additions like cheese, fried meats and the taco parts of taco salads cancel out many of the weight loss and health benefits of any salad. Be forewarned: The only good crouton is whole-wheat crouton. Eat your salads au naturale or with dressings based in olive oil, not mayonnaise.
