Confused about my Pizza Hut dinner?

So my friend and I got Pizza Hut for dinner. It was a large cheese only pizza. On the website, it says a serving is 1/8th of the pizza and is 360 calories, but the pizza that I got had 12 slices. I had 2. How would I count that?

    maths

    360x8=whole pizza
    divided that by 12 is each slice.
    times two b/c you had two slices

    360 * 8 = 2880
    2880 / 12 = 240
    240 * 2 = 480 kcal
    Or just enter "2" and round up.

    So you ate 1/6th of a pizza, but the measurement is 1/8. 1/6=x/8. Solve for x, you ate 1.33 servings.

    ^Calorie maths are better from the people above me.

    All of those.

    A pizza hut cut 12 slices? I've never gotten that. I wish our pizza guy would do that.

    Pizza Hut uses 12, 8 or 6 slices depending on size and style of pizza. You're looking at the wrong line on the nutrition chart.
  • Haha, no, turns out my friend's parents requested they be cut to 12.

    i'm surprised nobody did that weird math thing where you cross out things from the top and bottom of a division line and cancel things out. forgot what it's called.

    Whenever I am ordering pizza for a group of small kids, I have it sliced into 16 slices. A lot less waste with little ones.

    If I may say, the best solution to this problem is not to eat Pizza Hut.

    I have avoided having any sort of pizza for more than 2.5 years. It is because I used to eat so much of that stuff that I almost killed myself.

    Sorry to sound preachy but I do not want to weigh 393 lbs ever again.

    Congratulations on your weight loss. That's fantastic. Now, may I suggest working on fixing your relationship with food and learning moderation. It's a step-by-step process, and it's not always easy, but it makes life a lot more pleasant.

    I had no idea the dangers of pizza! So it's pretty much classified as a gateway drug now, huh?

    I really don't want to spend the rest of my life in fear of food.

    It's a better strategy, imo, to learn how to eat all foods reasonably and within the context of a healthy diet.

    Good luck with that. I'll just eat like a reasonable person and enjoy my pizza AND my good health.

    Luckily pizza and weight loss aren't mutually exclusive, then! A life without pizza sounds pretty bleak to me. I understand moderation isn't achievable for everyone but it's worth a decent try; abstinence isn't sustainable for most.

    No pizza for 2.5 years?

    I'd rather be dead. I'm not even kidding.

    You think that was confusing?

    A couple months ago we were at a hotel in a different province. We decided to order from Pizza Hut. I checked their website and they had a deal on medium pizzas, and it was just for me and my daughter, so I thought great! I phoned and said I'd like the medium deal. The lady on the phone told me "Oh, we don't have medium pizzas in Saskatchewan. But our large is the same size as the medium and it's the same price."
