    I weight myself. Eat the pizza. Weight myself the next day. Subtract the difference.

    this is as close as I'll ever get to weighing pizza.

    edit to add that it's just easier to eat the whole pizza.

    Geez! No, I've never weighed it. I overguesstimate just for safety's sake. :laugh:

    I made a frozen pizza last night and I weighed it.

    I have never once weighed pizza. And I eat it often.

    Well since you already went to the trouble of weighing it might as well do the math and log it accurately.

    In the future I wouldn't weigh it.

    If you are unable to unknow what you now know you might have to weigh it from here on out.

    May I suggest a story? Pandora's Box.

    I usually order a small or medium (depending on how many calories I've got), eat the whole thing, log as such, and assume it's close enough.

    No, just eat the darn pizza and enjoy every bite. I work it into my plan and it's something I look forward too weekly.

    Unless it is a daily menu item, I would just estimate it by slice. And if I am worried I will just do some extra cardio.

    That's what im thinkin.....Also....have you tried to do cardio after eating pizza? I usually eat 3-4 pieces and I've tried to do late night cardio or walk after (3 hrs or so) and still get MASSIVE cramps :(

    yes i pull the different parts apart and weight them individually

    What saddens me is that there might be someone out there who would take this seriously and actually do such a horrible thing to a slice of pizza.

    I pretty much always order pizza from a local pizza joint, so I really have no idea how many calories I'm eating anyway. I just pick a similar entry in the database and log it that way. I eat 3 slices of pizza for dinner about once a week, and it hasn't affected my weight loss yet.

    Even if I ordered chain pizza or made a frozen one, I probably wouldn't weigh it unless it became a more frequent meal. I do tend to weigh almost everything else that I prepare at home, so I guess that helps even things out a little. :smile:

    The small pizza joints always have the best pizza and such!!!! Downfall is the lack of nutritional info :(

    I officially don't care! Instead the hubby and I will just go for a walk to even some of it out :)

    I don't weigh the slices. I figure it all balances out over time. When I make my own, I do weigh all the ingredients when I am cooking it, so I can be reasonably sure of the calories in the whole pie.

    I only eat homemade pizza, so yes, I weigh that but do it an ingredient at a time as I'm building it. That said, I have yet to take my scale and/or measuring cups to a restaurant, so weighing things "on the go" seems like overkill to me. There are times it's appropriate to estimate as well as possible and let it go at that.

    Only after I digest it.
