    Dinner- have pizza- just not take out crap. Use lean cheeses and veggies on it. Or turkey peps are good. I make pizza bagels using 110 calorie whole wheat bagel thins, sauce, low fat moz and turkey pepps and onion- yummy good.


    I agree (except the low-fat stuff. I *always* do full fat dairy to get the amino acids not found in low fat dairy. But I learned how to make my own pizza. It tastes a LOT better than the chain stores because I use fresh ingredients, and it's about 200 calories less per slice. I don't do bagels though. I make my own crust from scratch. It might sound hard at first, but it's really not hard at all. And it's actually kinda fun and very satisfying.

    I usually add italian sausage and pepperoni (the regular stuff, none of that turkey stuff) and real cheese and sometimes hamburger, plus mushrooms, green peppers, and onions. I always liked combination style pizza, but I also like to save money and eat food that is fresh instead of frozen. After my brother worked at Pizza Hut and Little Caesar's, I vowed to NEVER eat at a chain store. Everything is either frozen or out of a can. It's edible, but you can't beat fresh. :drinker:

    Today for example I was doing great on Cals until dinner- Of course its just an estimate because i cant find nutritional info for the Pizza joint im getting, but still. Same with yesterday except snacks put me over.

    How do you balance everything and not feel hungry?

    My diary is private but to give you an idea:
    Honey Nut Cheerios 3/4cx2
    Minute Maid OJ 8oz

    1 hot w/ketchup,mustard,relish (all 1/2 servings) on bun w/watermelon chunks (1c)
    water

    dinner will be 2 slices of pizza with 2 breadsticks with a mt dew

    so no snacks today and im over :(

    Start tracking your macro's and try to get a better balance of carbs/protein/fat. Right now you're eating very high carb, and your carbs are coming from garbage sources (cereal, mt dew, bread, pizza, juice).

    Focus on eating more protein, and getting your carbs from real food like fruit and veggies. You'll stay full longer.
