    cheat meal therefore eat both.

    Alternatively, just fit it into your day and don't have to cheat.
  • It depends, thin crust has a considerable amount less calories than pan or deep dish.

    If pan cakes don't have loads of butter, they don't have to be that bad.

    If it's a cheat meal eat what you like. It probably wouldn't make a difference if you ate both if you eat. If you eat 1,200 or so all other days of the week.

    Which toppings are the best protein-packed with veggie combos to order on a pizza, for a meal?

    So here's a question about making a smarter decision for my cheat meal...

    What is a better "cheat meal"...pancakes or pizza? I know neither of these are healthy, but which would you go with, or which is the lesser of the two evils? Thanks in advance.

    Which ever you like...both have benefits.

    Not healthy?? Why??

    Pancakes and syrup.....that is an awesome carb refeed.....very little fat.

    I ate a stack of 'em the night before my competitions.

    And then ate an entire Large pizza from Little Caesars after the show (2600 cals)

    It depends on the type of toppings for me. If I really had to choose, I'd go with pizza.

    You could always slap some pepperoni and cheese on a pancake :)

    The less evil of the two is the one you like best, and it is also the healthiest. It's actually healthier than living on salads, because it makes your diet easier to stick to resulting in more overall weight loss than throwing the towel after a couple of weeks on a restrictive diet.

    My choice? Pizza! I like it better than pancakes.

    Thanks again for all the info! Which do you think would be more filling between the two? My past few cheat meals have been a veggie burger and sweet potato fries (some vanilla custard afterwards) which were filling for me, but this past Sunday I had a portobello burger with sweet potato fries (no meat) and it wasn't filling at all! I want to enjoy the meal and be left satisfied, not craving more food afterwards if that makes sense!

    Chocolate chip pancakes are more filling for me.
    I always want to top my pizza off with gelato.

    Eat both and make it a day to remember. Also, give up the notion of unhealthy foods. You'll feel much better.
