Fillet Mignon - Beef Tenderloin Steak (1 serving(s)) and French fries (1 serving(s))

Reduce the french-fry portion, and fill at least half the plate with non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, asparagus, spinach, mushrooms, or a leafy salad.

Eat the steak and vegetables first; save any fries for the end of the meal rather than eating them on an empty stomach.

Swap fries for a lower-starch side such as lentils, chickpeas, or roasted non-starchy vegetables; keep added sauces and sugary condiments minimal.

Choose a modest steak portion and avoid bread, sweet drinks, dessert, or other starches with the same meal.

If having fries, choose a small serving, avoid extra-crispy or heavily processed fries, and pair them with fiber-rich vegetables.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk starting soon after the meal, if safe and appropriate for you.
