    right ..one medium pizza from Domino's is like 2000 calories...that is some peoples intake for a day ...

    if you make it yourself then that is different ..

    but to go pizza has an insane amount of calories in it...

    Huh? A 5 pound bag of sweet potatoes has over 2500 calories, but I wouldn't tell people not to eat sweet potatoes because of that.

    I have pizza just about every weekend. Can fit 3 slices of thin crust into my daily calorie goal no problem. Have never had a scintilla of regret. Man cannot live on egg whites and protein shakes alone.

    You wouldn't? You're obviously a monster. [/sarcasm]

    Nothing inherently bad about pizza. You can make good food choices with it, or bad ones. The same is true of a whole lot of other foods.

    I'm from New Jersey. Domino's isn't real pizza. Local places or homemade is what I'm referring to.
    most to go places have an insane amount of calories in them ...everyone once in a while is fine ..hell, I love pizza....but make it a once a week thing and me thinks you will be blowing out your calories and macros...

    complete bull.


    Hi from NJ as well!

    I order my pizza with thin crust, low sauce, extra veggies and no cheese. It tastes awesome and I don't miss the sauce or the cheese. When I make it at home I have an oatmeal crust recipe that is great and I do the same with the toppings. The sodium is really the only thing that's high on either but I don't have any issues with blood pressure so I don't worry about it.

    10 squares of Ledo's vegetable pizza = 1000 calories

    I can definitely fit 1000 calories into my day. I plan for it and eat a less caloric breakfast or lunch. I might work out harder on that day, but I look forward to having those 10 slices for dinner!

    I don't want to cut any food totally out of my diet because, for me, that's not feasible for the long run.

    I'm gonna take it a step further and launch a defense of pasta as well. Perfectly healthy for you. Barilla fettucine, a little marinara, some wine. There's some good nutrition in there.

    My grandfather lived to be 98 years old eating pasta and drinking wine almost every day. Now we have the PC Paleo crowd telling everybody that carbs are the new evil.

    I'm sure pizza is part of your weight loss diet :bigsmile: I'll leave it there LOL

    I eat pizza now and again. Bread, meat, cheese, and veggies...(or protein, carbs, and fat)...pretty nice balanced meal! :)

    I eat pizza too, but let me put it this way, I'm very aware pizza is not the best option for weight loss, body fat loss or muscle gain. Anyway, it has a lot to do with how much pizza you eat.

    Ice cream > Frozen Yogurt > Pizza > Chicken > Vegatables > Dr. Oz > Cherry cough syrup

    I can't really argue with that.

    The vegetables are strongly offended by this.

    Well technically NO food is a "bad" food. Foods are only unhealthy for you if you eat them in excess. WIh that being said, take away pizza just doesn't seem worth it to me because its so high in calories for so little of it. I like to make my own with fresh ingredients and no processed crap.
