    Pizza is good food. Too much eating pizza is bad.

    So, you're one of those full of himself *kitten*?

    Nice to know.

    So now I'm a *kitten* for telling you pizza won't help with weight loss? Sure, if telling the truth makes me one, so be it.

    No. You're a *kitten* for trying to single me out and make me feel bad in which you accomplished. My weight loss journey has been a very bumpy road, and I'm starting to learn that restricting certain foods out of my diet is what made me gain all of the weight back in the first place.

    Look, It is your initial attitude and approach what makes not want to sugarcoat it. I'm not really trying to make you feel bad, but in order to achieve great results, sometimes you need to make sacrifices. I always love how people here support eating junk food, pizza, etc. Yes, they can eat whatever they want, but if you really want to achieve your weight loss goals, fast and healthy, use the internet, search for tips from the pros, those who compete, those who live dedicated to fitness 100% because it is their job, etc, because from them you will learn the most. Their bodies speak for themselves.

    All I'm trying to say is, whether pizza is bad or not, is not the best food for you to be eating unless you don't mind slowing down your weight loss progress.

    To change the topic a little, I doubt anyone will be able to fit Pizza Hut's new poutine pizza into the daily goals, Pizza with french fries and topped with cheese curd

    Alexis - Whole Wheat Greek Pita Flat Bread (Crust) - 1 Whole
    Tillamook - Three Cheese Italian Blend - 56g (2 servings)
    Rustic Crust All Natural - Pizza Sauce, 3 oz
    Spice Hunters Garlic Herb blend to taste

    13 Minutes on a baking sheet @ 375, using parchment paper to prevent stick and mess. Cut 4 ways (8 slices).


    420 Calories (42 Carb, 19 Fat, 22 Protein) that says I can have a great pizza experience without "weird" or fake ingredients.

    Mom throws a bunch of sliced peppers on without touching the scales much... SO adds pepperoni from our groceries deli department, we get it shaved... 4 slides per crust, barely adds anything to the numbers, but preserves the "craving".

    Of course pizza isn't a bad food, Congress declared it a vegetable. How could a vegetable be bad for you?

    I've already been down the fast track. Did I get good, fast results? Of course. Didn't last though. I want a lifestyle change. Not some diet.

    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...

    I'm from New Jersey. Domino's isn't real pizza. Local places or homemade is what I'm referring to.

    Are you suggesting NJ has real pizza? I would sooner recognize NJ as a real place worth living before I'd admit that theres a real pizza available in NJ...

    as a teen i worked for a large, multinational pizza chain. there are four pumps of oil in each PAN. that's half of why it's so calorific.

    But i don't regard those pizzas as pizzas. A proper pizza with real meat and cheese and veg isn't too too bad, if you restrict portion and maybe have a salad.

    No... I thought this thread was a joke but then you brought in NJ suggesting that theres real pizza in NJ and now I just don't know what to think of this thread anymore.

    Pretty sure someone shouldn't be eating an entire medium pizza themselves, anyhow.


    I made a pizza at work tonight (at a sandwich shop) using a flatbread, light marinara sauce, cheese, roast beef, and a ton of chopped up veggies. It was amazing, and under 300 calories.

    I have owned a Pizza Restaurant for 18 years. I eat pizza! The crust is the biggest culprit so I just roll it out very thin so I don't use as much dough. The sauce has basically no calories (25 on a 7" pizza). I use vegetables and if I want meat, we use a 95% Fat Free Deli Ham that we shave very thin so I just put a few little pieces on for taste then a little cheese (we use part skim, real mozzarella. You can eat a 7" pizza for 350 calories or less (depending on toppings you choose) which isn't bad if that's your meal. Go to your hometown, Mom and Pop shops. We work harder to please our customers and make it the way they want it! We have a lot of people that will say "Roll very thin and double dock" or "Go very, very light on the cheese" and we fix it the way they ask. That's the best part of supporting the small guy instead of the "Chains".

    lady, you totally rock.

    i have pizza several times a month and its always from the local mom/pop places, so damn good.

    i think i would it eat it more often if i knew how to log it accurately. normally, 3 slices does the trick for me. I like it with regular crust, lots of veggies, and 1 meat topping.

    i'd make it myself, but there's no way i'll leave it as good as the one i buy.

    im in florida and theres a lot of people here from new jersey and new york that open up italian restaurants here and it is REAL pizza. its not like pizza hut or dominos or processed crap. its fresh dough, real cheese, veggies, sauce made of tomatoes and simple ingredients. its not something that they keep in a freezer and heat up they actually make everything that goes into it. its a lot healthier than any frozen health food that you buy at the store thinking its healthy when its full of sodium and preservatives. yeah if you eat a whole pizza to yourself with extra cheese, sausage and pepporni then its not good for you anymore but 1-2 slices of just normal cheese pizza or veggie pizza is fine, i eat pizza every weekend with my boyfriend.. REAL PIZZA ISNT BAD FOR YOU! next time you try to tell an italian that pizzas bad for you, get ready to sleep with the fishes ; )
