    I get cravings for pizza occasionally(usually when I see someone on tv eating it lol) but anytime I get it, it lives down to expectations... So whhhyyy do I still want it?

    I'm not sure where you're getting it from, but stay away from Dominos, Pizza Hut, etc ... go find a mom and pop joint, or go to NY or NJ and get a good pizza.

    I fortunately live near a little pizza place here in Florida that happens to serve the only decent NY style pizza I've had outside of New York. Everyone else can suffer while I munch on the awesomeness that is Margherita pizza made with a simple crushed tomatoes, fresh basil leaves, and fresh mozzarella.

    because pizza is amazingly delicious!
    have some, log it, be happy. have whatever you're craving and make it fit into your day - do more exercise. or alter it to something healthier...less cheese, thin crust, etc. just be happy with your choice

    But wasn't that OP's particular dilemma? That the last few times she got pizza it did not live up to her expectations? It was not amazingly delicious to her and she was not happy.

    I usually try to do that.. It always seems to still tempt me tho.. It always looks sooo good when I see ppl on tv enjoying it! It always looks cheesier on tv too lol

    I think that is why they have food stylists. They make any food on TV look exaggeratedly good.
    Years ago when Maruchan came to Mexico I got really exited about their Yaki Soba ( Before that I had lived eleven years in Japan and adore japanese food ). I bought a pack of the " original flavor " ( thinking it would taste like in Japan ). It looked like crap, it smelled like crap and I had no idea what the " original " flavor referred to. Not even the dogs wanted to eat it. I threw it out and never bought a Maruchan product again. But to this day my mouth waters when I see an ad on TV.....lol.
