Do you have salads often? I'm starting to get too full after dinner to eat a salad. Did it make a difference in your weight loss? Slower? Faster?
Hi kaylynt - I'm not a big fan of salads. I don't care for cold veggies, lettuce or fruit (when not on IP). I like cutting the veggies in strips and dipping them in the dressing at work. I do have lettuce once in a while, especially love my protein for dinner in a big warm salad, like the Big Mac in a bowl or a taco salad. My weight loss has been slow and steady, averaging about 2 lbs a week. I've generally been quite happy with that, as long as the scale keeps going down.

My counselor said that on school nights I can have an extra low-cal protein to get me thru the evening.

The extra lettuce is only if you have to... if you don't feel like you are hungry just make sure you get a good variety of the allowed veggies for better nutrients and skip the lettuce. Or use a big leaf or two as a wrap for your protein or veg instead of the 'normal' tortilla or flour wrap.
It won't hurt or help your weight loss since there are so few carbs & calories in lettuce anyhow.
