Eating a salad with vinegar dressing might be just the ticket you need to counter overweight and diabetes:

Eating the salad BEFORE the main meal is a double edged sword, salads are lower calories than potatoes or pasta for example, while giving some basic "fullness" to the stomach, follow that up with a SMALL meal richer in carbs/fat and you will feel satisfied.
Also do a search for Citric Acid and weightloss, For All round effect I would make the salad dressing like this:
make sure each person get:
- two tablespoons vinegar
- some theaspoons citric acid
- one tablespoon of fishliver oil (for the omega 6/9), or if you are posh, use Udo's Choice oil
- that secret ingredient your grandmother uses to make dressing really taste (ask her)
- a few theaspoons of one of those "super green" supplements (wich contains vitamins/minerals/enzymes/flavenoids , but all in their natural bounded state because the powder is basically 20-30 types of chopped up greens/veggies
Include some red paprika, tomatoes and brocolli and you have a tasty starter that you can feel really good eating.
In Mediterranean countries they eat a fair share of fat meat but relatively low heart-diseases, its quite common to have salads with vinegar for starters, do the math!
