I have been craving for salad recently!
Had a plate of salad as my lunch!
As much as many salad lovers like to eat salads as their lunch too, it's important to take note of the salad dressing as some of the salad dressings are high in calories!!!
Can you guess how much calories in just 2 tablespoons of the salad dressings in the market?
Which is your favourite salad dressing?
Do you know that there is a misconception that eating salad can help lose weight?
To lose 1 kg of weight in a week, your daily calories should be kept at 800 calories for female, 1000 calories for male.
In a plate of salad, you can self-check which dressing and how much (tbsp) you use to mix the vegetables?
If you mix the salad with quite a lot of salad dressing, a plate of salad could easily reach 500-600 calories!
With added some grilled salmon/ chicken, the plate of salad could become 800-900 calories!
It could in turn cause you to put on weight instead of losing weight!!!

Hope the above is helpful for you next time when you have your healthy salad!
