Takeout meals often look like huge sources of fat and carbs. So, it’s important to make sure the food contains enough protein and vegetables. You can use the plate method: fill half your plate with non-starchy vegetables, one-quarter with lean protein, and the rest with carbohydrates.

Here are some more ways to add vegetables to your meal:

ask to add extra lettuce and a tomato slice to your burger;
ask for broccoli instead of French fries;
add vegetables to your pizza. In most cases, you can add tomatoes, pepper, mushrooms, and onions.
take small carrots as a snack, in order not to overeat before you start the main course.
