    There is nothing wrong with pizza. Just fit it into your calorie and macro targets!

    If you have carbs like pizza, just make sure that you always have some kinda protein with it and a veggie. Then it will balance out your blood sugar and you will still lose weight. If you are having like 4 pieces of cheese pizza with doritos or something you will gain weight cuz its all carbs on top of carbs without protein or veggies. But if you instead have like 2 small slices of some kinda meat pizza and have a side salad with it or something like that then it will balance your blood sugar cuz you will have the right proportions of protein,carbs, n veggies and you will still lose weight.

    Wrong... If you are in a deficit you will lose weight. Carbs don't magically make you gain weight. Plus if you eat a cheese pizza you are getting MORE than just carbs.

    As with anything else, it's best to make your own. Be careful to read the label on the sauce if you use a store bought. Too many pizza sauces sneak in extra calories with oils and sweeteners. I think leaving off the meat and cheese is a great idea.

    There's nothing wrong with pizza. Pizza is really just a very tasty open cheese and tomato sandwich! I have pizza a couple of times a month, when we have "movie night" in front of the TV at home. I just make sure I have enough calories left to indulge and I usually have a cardio session beforehand to make sure:wink:

    Haha, go re-read the OP. And ketchup? eww. Ketchup's HFCS would qualify as a sweetener, wouldn't it? So your idea about "just ketchup on bread" is not consistent with what i said, or with what the OP said.
