It is definitely a good idea to drink before, during and after a meal. It keeps your stomach full and helps with digestion.

Salad is one of those foods that as long as it isn't loaded with a bunch of fat, you burn more calories eating it then are actually in it. It fills you up better than most foods because of the roughage, which is also and added bonus. The nutrients it provides are also much better off being recieved in raw form than via a supplement.

Any food will increase metabolism because it gets the stomach juices flowing. However one type of food will help by heating things up. Spicy hot foods make you eat less and get you perspiring which is an indication of increased metabolism.

Breakfast should not be a binge meal. Yes it is important but only because it kick starts your metabolism. Toast, or eggs, cereal whatever you choose, don't eat until you bust.

It would be best to have 6 small meals a day. Say about 200 to 300 calories per meal.

Good luck.

I'll try to answer:

1) As long as it's water or another non-calorie beverage, it's good.
2) Salad is filling, and if you skip the cheese and the high-fat, high-calorie dressing (and a couple other pitfall foods), it is also low calorie. You need to have 5 servings of vegetables a day, and this is an easy way to incorporate 2 or 3 of them.
3) No food really increases your metabolism. It is based on too many factors, diet being just one of a couple dozen.
4) You should have a decent sized meal, but you should never set out to eat until you are full. You will probably overeat. Instead, get a handle on this by having one serving of high-fiber whole grains (English muffin, bagel, cereal, oatmeal), a serving of fruit, and a serving of dairy. Add an egg if you want some protein.
5) You should still eat 3 meals a day, but if you eat small meals (300-400 calories each), then you need to add a couple snacks (fruit, veggies, turkey, etc). Over the course of the day, you need 6-11 servings of grains, 5-8 servings of fruit and vegetables, and 2 servings each of dairy and meat (or, vegetable proteins if vegan).
