    Baby Ellie is nearly 7 months old (how!!??) and has FINALLY taken a minor interest in food today. A full 30g (1oz) of mushed veg was consumed in one sitting today without constantly spitting it out or crying. My boobs might get a rest one day.

    My confession - I know I'm supposed to feel sad about leaving my babies for the first time, but actually I can't wait. I'd love three hours on my own!

    You deserve "me time". I don't think you're supposed to feel sad. I'd be (and was) running for the door. ;)

    You do deserve me time, Spam. I hope Ellie lets you have some soon.

    I ate 4700 calories on Friday.

    I know it's not what you were aiming for, but I find this quite impressive.

    I ordered Pizza Hut after I had dinner (a chick fil a sandwich and fruit) and ate most of a medium pizza, all the cinnamon sticks, some cheese bread, and icing. I am a bottomless pit when it comes to pizza. No matter what I've eaten, I can still eat all the pizza.

    ETA: I ate my whole day's calories of roughly 1700 and THEN had 2nd dinner... 2nd very. big. dinner.

    Time flies when you have kids and suddenly they are grown. Enjoy them as much as you can and by all means you DO deserve me time it is a must

    I am similar when it comes to pizza. I have to limit how much we order or I would (and can sometimes) eat a large one myself.

    I have to be careful with pizza as well. I eat the large by myself too. Then it makes me want more food so I start going through the pantry. I have to limit our pizza nights to once a month or so. :/

    When I order a GF pizza, I have to make myself put half on the plate and put the other half in the fridge right away. It can be lunch tomorrow, but I am too old to get away with eating a whole pizza any more.

    When I have pizza, it must be ALL the pizza, otherwise I won't eat it at all. And I can always eat all the pizza.

    Same. Putting half away doesn't work with me.

    Oh I pretend putting half away will -- but then I sneak to the fridge over the course of 2 hours and eat the second half


    What is your preference? Deep Dish, Hand tossed, or thin?

    I have to freeze pizza. Reheats from frozen just fine in the oven. If I put it in the fridge, though, forget it, I'm going to eat it.

    Can someone please explain to me why my employee health survey has questions about my finances on it? I so desperately want to tell them, "if you think we might be stressed about our finances, just pay us more;" unfortunately, there was no space for comments.
    I confess that I am very unhappy with HR right now.

    I will bring balance to the world by confessing I cannot stand pizza (or anything tomato based)!

    I could (and do) eat chocolate all day long. I'm going to have to curb that as I start breastfeeding less.

    I don't even pretend. I eat it all in one sitting. :#:D
    I love all pizza, really. I mostly eat handtossed though. We just had deep dish a few weeks ago for the first time in years. It was delicious! How about you?

    Thin or hand tossed. I like crisp thin but not cardboardy.... seems like a thin line that is crossed way too often.

    My dog likes hand tossed bc he gets the pizza bones

    Insanity! :o

    I eat my fair share of chocolate too though. Well, sweets in general. I have to be careful though because I seem to have no "off" button.

    I order a medium, pretending I'm saving tons of calories that way. Hand-tossed buffalo chicken from Domino's is my current obsession.

    I usually try to be smart and order a medium...but sometimes I give in and just get the large, Mine is just cheese though (that makes it a little better, right?).
    I sometimes wonder how I went 10 years without real pizza when I was vegan. I didn't miss it though. Strange.

    Everybody in my family orders their own pizza. I try to eat half and save half for the next day. I usually can.

    I mean, all pizza is good, but in order of preference, pan, hand tossed, thin.

    I usually skip the meat on pizza and get veggies, so that's something.

    Chef Boyardee Pizza kit pizza! I know that might sound crazy, but I love dough the kit makes and then the tomato sauce is pretty great too. Plus this way I can add just the right amount of cheese and onions. I usually save this for when I am sick with a cold.

    Otherwise I am big fan of deep dish with lots of veggies on top.

    QFT!! Mine is unusual, so no one else in the family eats it. The rest usually get some form of pepperoni. I tend to go for the thin crust, sometimes the hand tossed. Deep dish is too much bread for me. I get pizza for the toppings. Better stop now or I will be ordering pizza for dinner instead of cooking my mahi.

    I usually order a medium deep dish and get 3 meals out of that.
    I tried thin crust for the first time last time I ordered, and learned I only get two meals out of that and its not as good
    I like very little sauce, double cheese, pepperoni, bacon, tomatoes, green pepper, green olives and spinach....

    All gluten free pizza is thin crust pizza, which is not my favorite and probably why I don't eat it as often as I used to.
    I order my kids pizza from a local place that makes a great hand tossed crust (I miss it) because they also make good Chef salad and make a loaded baked potato with pepperoni. :)

    Can't be sure, but they may be looking to see whether there are correlations between pay level and healthy behaviors (there often are).
