    I have a confession to make. I think I'm addicted to pizza.

    I have been eating pizza at least 3-4 times per week. Am I doomed????

    Help.

    I had a Wendy's grilled chicken sandwich three times this week (!!!!!). Want to start a support group? I'll bring the pizza ;)

    One time my friend Phil bet me I couldn't eat 12 slices of pizza in one sitting. He lost. :smile:

    Can you eat an entire large pizza from Costco by yourself? That's quite a feat...

    I don't know because we don't have Costco here, but I bet I could.

    Good Luck :)

    Yupp, 18" diameter. For pepperoni, one pizza is 3720 calories, 180g of fat, 228g of protein, 396g of carbs. So delicious...

    Really? You'll bring pizza? Why kind of support is that? That's called sabotage

    Yeah, I'm not very good at the support group thing, am I?

    I don't think you're doomed!! I love pizza too, and I don't know if this will work for you, but it worked for me for whenever I wanted pizza.
    What you need:
    Tortillas
    Sauce
    Low fat cheese
    Muffin tin
    Oven
    Circular cookie cutter or empty can
    Toppings (optional)

    So you take your can or cookie cutter and cut six circles out of a tortilla. Put those cutouts each in a spot in the muffin tin (I don't have one, so I just put them on a tray and tin foil, doesn't matter). Put sauce on each, put cheese on each, and add desired toppings. Cook for 10-12 mins, I think on 400°. It might be 350°. Idk, if it burns at 400° then do 350° next time lol. Then, voila!! Six pizzas. It makes me feel like I'm eating a whole lot, but since they're tiny and the crust is a thin tortilla, its not that bad for you!! I permit you to even do you this for a meal every other day. :)

    No you are not addicted to Pizza.

    If you think you are addicted please eat pizza 3 times a day for atleast one week. If you can do that then I will say you are addicted.

    That sounds like a challenge...
    Mmmmm... I want to be in on this.

    Yes, say goodbye to all of your gains. Pizza in any amount leads to fat gain and muscle loss.

    You should be:

    1. Eating 6-7 small meals a day
    2. Eating zero processed foods
    3. Eating only low Glycemic Index carbohydrates
    4. Not eating any carbs after 6:00
    5. Never skipping breakfast.
    6. Not eating any grains, dairy, or gluten

    If you do all this things, you will be healthy no matter what.

    Really can't tell if you're joking or not :indifferent:

    Anyway, OP, now you've made me want pizza!! Haha, seriously though, nothing wrong with it as long as it fits your calorie and macro goals. I could never give pizza up :heart:

    Look at his post history. He is joking

    Okay I am relieved now :smile: Hey now you have to admit, with some of the crazies on MFP, you could have been serious.

    I won't lie I was starting to worry..

    I don't think I've ever seen a single thread with so much imitation pizza in my life.

    It's scared me, please just eat real pizza!!!

    Are you staying under your calorie count and meeting your macros? That's what's important.

    The problem with pizza is that it's a lot of calories for just a small amount of food. You probably won't feel full for long and then you'll be tempted to eat something else which will make you go over your daily goal.

    Some people do better with lots of small meals. Others do better with 2-3 bigger meals. Some people limit their eating to an hour or two and fast the rest of the day. It depends on the person. I do 2-3 meals and sometimes eat dessert.

    If you can eat pizza and still meet your goals, fine. Otherwise, have pizza as a treat just a couple times a week. Pizza day can be something to look forward to and keep you on track the rest of the week.

    Seriously! I'm not going to eat some less delicious form of pizza just because it's fewer calories. I'd rather eat one slice of amazing real pizza than 6 slices of some imitation pizza. I'll pass...
