You can lose weight eating whatever you want. You are unlikely to stick to your calorie and macro goals eating just pizza and cake. You probably won't hit your micronutrient needs without fruits and vegetables. If you are hitting your macros, staying within your calorie goal, getting appropriate nutrients then there is no reason you have to miss out on cake or pizza or ice cream.

I am assuming by "fit" you mean both in shape and healthy, and there for the best bet you want to eat a healthy diet with reasonable micros and macros. (If you just mean "not gain weight," then the answer is yes, no matter what you otherwise mean, assuming you can feel satisfied on what you are eating, which -- like others have said -- varies from person to person. It's a lot easier for me to stay in shape if I eat in a way I consider more healthy, in part because it helps me exercise and vice versa and because I feel better, but also because I am someone who can easily overconsume calories when I'm not careful.)
I am also assuming by "anything you want" you mean "in the context of my overall reasonable diet." If so, the answer is, again, yes. There is no food that is inconsistent with remaining fit; you don't have to cut out anything. If you mean something weirder like "can I eat candy and French fries all day as my only food" (which I guess I idealistically don't think anyone in reality aspires to), then no, that's not a good diet to promote health or an ideal body composition or energy, although some people get away with it just like some drink to excess and smoke and live to 100.
This.
I assume the OP is referring to a flexible dieting approach to weight loss and fitness. Flexible dieting is not about this odd extreme that some people believe of eating nothing but pizza, donuts and ice cream all day.
User sensibility has to be employed and maybe an intellect verging on average but nothing has to be removed from a dietary intake to achieve happy healthy stable weight loss and fitness.0 -

Welcome to MFP. I got a strike for posting a picture of a side-by-side shotgun once. Not a warning, a strike. And I even appealed it and it was upheld. Apparently not an appropriate "side by side" picture, as was the theme of the thread in question.0
