    When your tum-tum gets tight and you need your back patted.

    1. Fold pizza in half

    from this point it becomes a calzone. calzones are much cleaner than pizza.

    I cut it in half, because two pieces is my limit, and math isn't my forte.

    Always Eighths, don't be like those uncivilized Chicagoans! Next you will be asking about using napkins to soak the grease, and a fork to eat with!

    Depends how much you eat. If you eat 1/2 pizza, does it matter if that is 3 slices or 4?

    This is a good point, though.

    It does matter. The more cuts you make, the more calories escape from the fresh wounds of the pizza.

    Bleeding its horrible greasy marinara blood onto your all-too-thin paper plate . . .

    the more pieces you cut, the more you can log as cardio.

    Listen, four to eight cuts is strength, eight to sixteen is hypertrophy, and only beyond sixteen do you get into slicing cardio.

    depends on the thickness of the base.

    are you pizza?

    This is horrible. Thanks for nothing. I just wanted to find out what the most clean paleo carb calorie conscious way was to cut a pizza and now I'm questioning both my sexuality and my humanity. I might be pizza for Christ's sake. This is the worst hannukah ever.

    But not with a pencil because that would be gross.

    Also, you could lay a hexagon with the same diameter provided the hexagon was inscribed in the circle and cut from corner to corner thusly.
    Of course not with a pencil. What kind of amateurs don't have a pizza compass?

    Pizza-induced hypertrophy. It's like this thread was written just for me.

    There, there. We still love you. Now hold still while I cut you into eighths.

    Some pizza entries in the database are for 1/9 of a pizza.

    How in the name of cauliflower cupcakes do you cut 1/9 of a pizza?!?!

    I have long wondered that same thing. Who does that?

    One way I find to eat pizza that helps with weight loss is that I eat it right out of the oven without waiting for the pizza to cool off at all. That way, it scalds the roof of my mouth, and I shed flesh there for days to follow.
