    if you don't like the recipe or want your full-calorie "normal" pizza go ahead! It's your prerogative. But no need to trash her recipe it's not like any of you even tried it so CHILL OUT maybe the people hating on this really do need to eat something

    @hj127‌ thank you!

    And some of these people are the same people that post threads or statuses wondering why the scale isn't moving or inches aren't being lost [/b] -___- It is what it is. I know many people whether they posted here or not, will enjoy and benefit from the recipe and that gives me satisfaction :)

    really? so the people saying you can eat pizza are not losing weight? Interesting notion ...

    Nope. You misunderstood what i said. I said some of these people who say just keep on eating regular pizza cause your alternative is no good are the same people that will post about wondering why they are not losing weight. And no names were named.

    why is pizza not healthy?

    In the context of overall diet, SOME pizza is not unhealthy. But for those with limited calories, to balance the overall diet pizza may not be something that fits often. And if the diet isn't balanced, it's unhealthy.

    yes, I was referring to the blanket statement that it is "unhealthy"

    I see you are once again not reading through all the comments before jumping in ...

    No, it didn't. It said they prefer a healthier alternative. You changed it to unhealthy.

    yea, again, I was not talking to you, I was referring to another poster..but you decided to make this about you...

    I chose to make it about the post to which you replied. And to answer your question. If you chose the wrong one ...

    why is pizza not healthy?

    The cheese on regular pizza is high in saturated fat, which increases risk for high cholesterol and heart disease. A 5-ounce slice of cheese pizza typically contains 675 mg of sodium or more. Consuming too much sodium could increase your risk for high blood pressure and cause water retention which some people may or may not care about

    pizza can be healthy if made right most of the pizza you buy counts as junk food because of the high amount of refined carbohydrates, fat and sodium it contains.

    Obviously it's perfectly fine to have every now and then. No one is telling you to stop eating your pizza

    pizza is not "unhealthy" is has protein, fats, and carbs which are essential macro nutrients. And fat is 'bad" now, what are we in the 1980's?

    aquamariner used the word 'healthier alternative' not unhealthy lol

    It doesn't say unhealthy anywhere lol and in any case pizza IS actually unhealthy for certain individuals for reasons I already posted. Please keep eating your pizza though, no one asked you to stop.

    in all seriousness im sure its fine and for a lot of people, just what they are looking for. However, for ME, the calorie difference between that and REAL pizza isn't that large LOL

    Then don't call it pizza. That doesn't mean the OP can't.

    I never said she couldn't...

    but it does not mean that I can't express an opinion on said recipe..

    Indeed. You can make broad declarations of what YOU think constitutes pizza lol.

    Oh I think we understand. You are back tracking. I would love to know who on this thread has posted in other threads complaining that they are not losing weight. If you are going to make an claim, then you should back it up.

    Yeah, if the something is a type of bread, it does. Crust, sauce, cheese. That is the definition of pizza.

    Everything is controversial here. You used the word "healthy". That always causes ire.
