Default Newbie with question on IP diet - regarding lettuce

Hi there! Newbie Lorraine here...new to ip..yesterday.

Question - unlimited lettuce...I have large salads which includes different greens...like spinach, arrugla...does unlimited lettuce mean stricly lettuce or salad greens...or are salad greens classed as vegetables and should stick to 2 cups per day?

Thanks in advance.

Lorraine

You can eat as many veggies (including salad greens) as you want.

In fact, lettuce itself (at least the iceberg variant) is almost void of nutrients. It's practically water.

Not bad of course, but not the most nutritious type of food either...

So don't worry, you don't have to hold back on veggies in your salads, especially not on green leafy vegetables.
