If you have your heart set on an order of fries, Hill suggests sharing a small order, reducing your total fat and saturated fat intake.

As always, water is a great option for your beverage, but if you’re craving something else, Hill recommends unsweetened iced tea, which has 0 calories. The second best choice she suggests is the Lite Pink Lemonade, which comes in at five to 15 calories, depending on the size.

  • Your beverage choice is a great area to save some calories. Choose water when you can or a smaller size of something that’s low-calorie.
  • You can always bring a piece of fruit or a healthy homemade side to go with your protein.
