We just found out a la Fit Sugar we found a calorie breakdown of just how many calories are in your favorite salad toppings. Basically girls, just use common sense. If you're getting a salad to be healthy--think veggies. Don't add bacon, egg and cheese, all right? Or all of the above. Also a no-no? Drenching your greens in creamy dressings. If you need something substantial for lunch get a sandwich on whole grain bread--you'll be much better off.
