    If you get hit by a bus, you would regret not enjoying your favorite foods in moderation from time to time.

    I'm sure the last thoughts of a person dying from being hit by a bus are "I should have just had that pizza"

    try looking up a light recipe online. i subscribe to cooking light and they've had some that are fairly low calorie. fresh ingredients are always better and you get to decide how healthy to go, that way you don't feel deprived.

    When I ate gluten, I found I could eliminate my pizza craving by eating a pizza bagel-- take a whole wheat bagel (other types become too chewy in my opinion) sliced in half, add a layer of turkey pepperoni (watch for salt though) then a scattering of low-fat mozzarella, followed by a generous dash of red pepper flakes and oregano. Heat in microwave--without any sauce. The spices makes it italian tasting so you only need a tiny bit of marinara to "dip" the pizza in at the end.

    Pizza quiche:

    3 eggs
    6 pepperonies (or topping of choice)
    diced tomatoes (or top with pizza sauce after baking)

    Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

    Not really related but this thread made me want pizza
  • Go to papa murphy's. Get the DeLite crust. Load it with toppings. Get plenty of veggies and try to stick to one meat topping. It's about 150-175 calories a slice for my fave flavors

    Papa Murphy's rocks my pizza craving- Delight crust any toppings & I go really light on the cheese. Then I add the 2% or non fat mozzarella at home. I haven't done it in a few months though. I bet them girls miss me ;o)

    I eat Jack's Frozen Pizza out of the freezer section now. It's not as great or as light - but I'm usually in a time crunch and need something that doesn't interfere with working out so going to my freezer on Friday night is easier than 30 minute drive before boxing.

    unanimous. everyone says eat it.

    know what'll happen if you purposefully deprive yourself of something that is unnecessary to deprive yourself of?

    You'll binge and eat a whole pie.

    Eat the pizza and go over on calories today or go to the gym before, if you don't eat the foods you like, you will have problems losing the weight and keeping it off...

    Load it up with veggies.

    If you want regular pizza, plan for it, eat it, enjoy it, move on.

    make your own: whole wheat crust, easy sauce, no cheese and roasted or sauteed veggies and chicken. Maybe a sprinkling of feta.

  • eat the pizza! what on earth? pizza is NOT a bottle of fat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It's a little bit of c arbs which your body can use for energy right away.
    If you get one with any veggies on it, that counts.
    It has protein, healthy fat and sodium which is also necessary. the tomato sauce is FULL of good things your body needs.

    I cannot for the life of me understand who on earth taught soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many people that salad is good and pizza will prevent you from ever losing weight.

    eat two or three slices. not the whole pizza.

    THE END.

    or make these :bigsmile:

    Amen! :)

    Figure out what about the pizza you crave. I realized what I craved most- the burnt cheese. Take some cheese, put it on a pan and burn it in the oven. I know it sound gross, but the flavor stops the craving. I quit flour about a month ago. The cravings for bread, dough, etc. eventually go away. Now I crave cheese and meat (and alcohol).

    I don't know about other places, but I find Papa Johns' makes it easier to make the pizza at least a bit better. I usually order online so I don't have to worry about making myself heard across a phone line. I usually order a thin crust so I don't get quite as many calories per slice from the bread, alone. Then, I usually go light on the cheese with extra sauce (personal preference, here). Beyond that, I put on whatever I feel like while trying to keep things in control which, for me, usually focuses on vegetables with one or two meats, if any.

    The big thing after that, as many have mentioned, is self-discipline. Don't scarf down a whole pie in one meal. Right after I graduated, I usually was able to make one pizza last a whole weekend, sometimes longer.

    Eat the pizza...but in moderation. For me, if I have a craving I allow myself to eat it because if I don't I end up eating a bunch of other things to try to satisfy the craving and in the end I still want pizza! I use to try to restrict what I ate but now have realized it's a lifestyle change and I am not going to stop eating the things I love just because they aren't the best for me. I just need to practice portion control.

    I LOVE to make my own pizza. That way I know what's on it and can make it exactly the way I like it. I actually prefer BBQ sauce pizza so most of the time I will make a BBQ base pizza with shredded chicken and tons of veggies and I always opt for the full fat cheese because I can't stand the low fat crap.
  • Have 1-2 slices to satisfy your craving. Drink plenty of water before and you might eat less than you expect to. Balance it with some sort of movement...take a walk around the neighborhood, turn up your favorite music and dance for 30min. I have always been overweight and have tried and ultimately failed at countless diets. The best advice I can give you is to be aware of what you eat and do some sort of activity to burn off the fat calories. Do NOT deprive yourself because that will surely leead to failure. Everthing in moderation and move around. This is what I am doing now and I'm not hungry I eat smaller portions and when I want a burger or pizza I have it. I may eat half the burger for one meal with a veggie and eat the rest at another meal. This way I have consumed all the fat and calories but throughout the day and I make sure to move around so that it doesn't get to stick to my thighs.

    Make a mini pizza on a piece of bread. Use a little bit of ranch dressing as a spread (1 tbsb is enough), low fat cheese, and some veggies and chicken as toppings:D
