    How much is a bunch and do you normally eat healthier? I have seen you post that you get a lot of your calories from a juice drink- is this still true?

    how many slices? are you sure you stayed within your limit? Pizza is generally high in calories

    I think too its not just about caloric intake its what type of calories your putting in you, like comparing the same caloric intake as a slice of pizza to a Grilled chicken breast with steamed veggies
    which one sounds better? :cry: even though Pizza is my fav food is it good for us? I think its a matter of changing our mindset of food as fuel not a pleasure type of thing
    oh btw Im preaching to the choir^ i didnt get to be 335 lbs by eating health food :P

    but I think you should be fine as long as you feel you calculated correctly :wink:

    2 pieces is not a bunch. We are going to eat not as healthy choices along the way it just has to be the treat not the norm to get to a goal of being healthy.:bigsmile:

    What kind of pizza makes a difference too. Thin and crispy with veggies as toppings is way different from meat lovers. :happy:

    Hey! I like you! Did you introduce yourself in the newbie forum and I missed it? If so, hi. :bigsmile:

    And as for pizza - one day won't kill you, as long as most of your life is spent eating healthy and balanced meals. :smile:

    Yeah it's fine. A meat lover's thin is like 1200-1400 for half the pizza. I've done it before and have been losing steadily.

    stop by and say Hi ... again
  • well, i had 4 pieces but at pizza hut they make them pretty small. i recorded the pizza as 1000 calories but i did not go over my limit because i had a lot of exercise calories. i actually still have 200 calories left!
    ya, i am the one that drinks the smoothies, i just love them!
  • oh i forgot to add that the pizza was veggie

    Mmmm sounds good to me! We have to splurge every once in a while! I was craving it last week only I wanted greasy pepperoni. I got a Lean Cuisine BBQ Chicken one the other day I am saving it for when the pizza craving comes back.:bigsmile:

    You'll be fine :drinker:
  • I had a bar b q chicken and bacon thin crust... 3 slices it was listed as 870 calories. that sounded accurate since it was thin crust
  • i never even thought about getting the thin crust but i should of because the calorie counter says 1000 for 4 pieces of the pan pizza but under 500 for the same amount just with the thin crest! i will remember that for the next time though.
