I'm craving a whopper talk me out of it.

Don't be silly! If you really, really have to have it - just have it then! Look at tomorrow's meal plan, make an adjustment or two and voila. On the other hand - for the value of that piece of crap you could also buy yourself some decent business stock and see it grow...2

PinUp is right, you could also save your chicken for tomorrow and eat the slices of pizza instead with asparagus and bell peppers. Sounds like a great lunch to me. Going with the flow, no FML needed.1

FML.... work is bringing in pizza today for a mandatory meeting. I brought chicken, asparagus and roasted bell peppers thinking id get a nice under 330 lunch in but now I'll have no choice to add a square of pizza or two probably at no less than 180 a slice for those thin cut squares right?
Ha! I can never pass on free workplace provided pizza as well. And they usually order from good pizza joints!3 -

Why would you have no choice? Just say "Thank you, but I'll eat the lunch I already brought. More for the rest of you!"
I've sat at the conference table at work and ate (and enjoyed) a salad whole everyone else has pizza before. Other days I eat the pizza. Depends on my goals and mood for the day.
I can't say no to free pizza. I'm not going to feast just have an additional slice or too.
I'm already the thinest guy in the meeting. People will be like wtf when they find out im still cutting weight lol
Though this is why the last 10lbs have been impossible very little room for error2 -

Maybe I'm misreading your tone and I need a second cup of coffee, but this thread is a little confusing.
You started a thread complaining about a craving that you needed to be talked out of because it was going to cause you to throw your whole plan out the window. After 5 pages, you had a couple of bites of Whopper and then went and got a burger at Five Guys like it was no big deal.
Now you post "FML" because there's going to be free pizza at work, then after you get suggestions, you say your going to have the pizza, it's no big deal, you can just have a slice or two. It's kind of hard to tell what your goals are or what kind of responses you're looking for. I guess you're just looking for conversation and using overly dramatic language?
Anyway, I'd eat the pizza, and then probably eat my lunch for dinner or save it for tomorrow if it's the type of thing that would last. I'm also incapable of turning down free pizza, especially if I have to watch other people eat it! Glad you've got this all figured out I guess, I'm just confused

Now it's turning into a condiment conversation, so all is good.
Honestly, the SAD condiment vocabulary is discouraging (though I do have a soft spot in my heart for those hottest (is it "Diablo"? I forget) packets at Taco Bell with the snarky subtitles).
I lummesome ketchup, various mustard, salsa and pico de gallo . . . but tsatziki, gochujang chile sauce, peanut sauces, tahini, and more: So many condiments, such a short gustatory life!
Most BBQ log at 70 cals for 2 tablespoons.. seems less when weighed in grams.
I use yogurt dressings or salsas for low cal options.
That's because two tablespoons is *a lot* of BBQ sauce. Weigh it out, and you'd be shocked at what a normal portion actually is. It's like the opposite of the peanut butter phenomenon.0 -

I pretty much never feel like food is a titanic struggle between good and evil (perhaps dressed in the clothes of success and failure), no matter the day . . . so I guess different people feel differently about food than others, too. :flowerforyou:
"FML" over free pizza? So much drama. (I don't enjoy drama, personally.)
And it's just food, y'know?

I had this same issue!! And I caved yesterday and I felt like garbage for the rest of the day. There is SO much sodium in it and it made my stomach feel bloated and full and the kicker...........3 hours later I was somehow starving despite feeling heavy. It really wasn't worth it in the end for me.

I ate a double whopper the other day, minus the ketchup, mayo, onions, tomato and bread LOL - i just ate the meat, cheese and pickles, (they forgot the mustard).........but what sucked is i was charged regular price, the price we pay to try to eat healthy............ and i drank a bottled water with it. That was dinner 0

Food good. Hunger bad.
Change your metrics to track calories weekly instead of daily, be responsible and have at it. Eat two whoppers if you want to, although I question your sanity if you have a 5 Guys nearby and choose a whopper over a 5 Guys burger. What's this world coming to?
Food isn't my enemy, or yours, no talking out of required. Just be responsible. Or not. Your choice.3 -

Had two 3x3 thin crust slices. No clue how to log it. Both were sausage and green peppers. Mushroom too but thats next to notta. Would 180 to 240 a slice be a good guesstimate?1 -

Ok but why would they assume you are still actively trying to lose weight unless you announce it?

You started a thread complaining about a craving that you needed to be talked out of because it was going to cause you to throw your whole plan out the window. After 5 pages, you had a couple of bites of Whopper and then went and got a burger at Five Guys like it was no big deal.
Now you post "FML" because there's going to be free pizza at work, then after you get suggestions, you say your going to have the pizza, it's no big deal, you can just have a slice or two. It's kind of hard to tell what your goals are or what kind of responses you're looking for. I guess you're just looking for conversation and using overly dramatic language?
Anyway, I'd eat the pizza, and then probably eat my lunch for dinner or save it for tomorrow if it's the type of thing that would last. I'm also incapable of turning down free pizza, especially if I have to watch other people eat it! Glad you've got this all figured out I guess, I'm just confused
Had two 3x3 thin crust slices. No clue how to log it. Both were sausage and green peppers. Mushroom too but thats next to notta. Would 180 to 240 a slice be a good guesstimate?
Look up a chain thin crust pizza that seems similar. Use an entry that gives a diameter (like 12" or 16"). Calculate the calories in the whole pie. Calculate the square inches in a whole pie ((3.14 X 36) for the 12", or (3.14 X 64) for 16": pi times the radius-squared, generally). Determine the calories per square inch. Multiply that by 18 (2 x (3" by 3"), what you ate). Easy arithmetic, should be pretty close.1 -
FML.... work is bringing in pizza today for a mandatory meeting. I brought chicken, asparagus and roasted bell peppers thinking id get a nice under 330 lunch in but now I'll have no choice to add a square of pizza or two probably at no less than 180 a slice for those thin cut squares right?
Why would you have no choice? Just say "Thank you, but I'll eat the lunch I already brought. More for the rest of you!"
I've sat at the conference table at work and ate (and enjoyed) a salad whole everyone else has pizza before. Other days I eat the pizza. Depends on my goals and mood for the day.
I can't say no to free pizza. I'm not going to feast just have an additional slice or too.
I'm already the thinest guy in the meeting. People will be like wtf when they find out im still cutting weight lol
Though this is why the last 10lbs have been impossible very little room for error
Maybe I'm misreading your tone and I need a second cup of coffee, but this thread is a little confusing.

I typically figure 250-275 for a big greasy foldable NY style slice. Otherwise I log one of the pizza chain entries for a more reasonably sized, not terribly oily slice.1 -

Why does the physical stature of your colleagues matter at all in this self imposed drama you’ve created? Why would they even know if you are cutting weight unless you are talking about it openly in front them?
They know. I was still 210+ when working here a year ago now fluctuations 157-160 depending on the day.I always turn down sweets too.
Ok but why would they assume you are still actively trying to lose weight unless you announce it?
Because if I wasn't watching myself i'd stack my plate of pizza as high as a mountain for starters0 -
