    Here's an example with Chicago-style pizza (way more calories than thin crust normally). The Chicago classic from Lou Malnati is 346 calories for the "individual-sized" pizza (this is what the restaurant defines as a single serving). It is 912 for the small, which my sister and I used to split and be full (and I always thought it had far more calories than that, so am pleased to know this). It's 1524 for a medium, which I can't imagine anyone finishing on their own, except over maybe 2-3 meals, and a full 2168 for a large.

    Um, I could finish a large in one sitting. Challenge excepted. Shipping to 73118? Lol.

    You people must all be skinny..... I can easily eat a medium pizza alone....possibly a large if I have beer :)

    I'm not "skinny" per se. I am a great weight for my height and age. My BMR, however is about 1300. My TDEE is around 1800. I'm gonna guess yours is a tad more.

    I am 6'1 and 220 so yup :)

    My BMR is 850 and I am 4 feet 11 inches. So I guess that I am a "little" bit smaller than you. A full pizza will feed me for two days. :)

    MFP is for logging food and counting calories. (Among other things)
    As long as you know your BMR? .....Which is measured in calories. But you dont count them. You know your body's magic number but you dont count or call them calories. Not to mention, Im so confused as to the point or purpose of this thread.

    To lose you must burn more calories than you eat.

    A calorie is a calorie, forever. The end.
