    I think you and your hubby should have a serious discussion. You should be on the same page. One person on a diet is harder than the whole family making a fun a healthy lifestyle change. You make it sound like veggies are a punishment! Whip up a great healthy meal together then go out for a bike ride or a hike or have fun conversation side by side on the treadmill.

    Tortilla shell pizza! It doesn't suck, I promise. If you use a whole wheat tortilla shell and keep the toppings healthy you have a 300 calorie meal.

    I am having trouble with cravings too, sometimes I just need to leave the room when others are eating junk. I am already dreading Christmas!

    I don't get why pizza is "junk".

    It's usually got protein, carbs and fat, and vitamins. All the things you need. And a little goes a long way.

    I agree with this^^.
    OP, just have a few slices of Pizza and do some exercise so you can up your calories!
    1100 is far too low in the first place, ....1200 is the bare minimum.

    I say... have the pizza! Just pick the right portion size to fit your meal plan for the day!
    I'm eating 1200 (ish) a day and I've just finished half of a vegetable supreme pizza. It was an Asda (Walmart) fresh one from their pizza counter but it's less than 500 cals for half a pizza. I'm happy to work that into my allowance. In fact, I'm not eating healthy at all today - but it will stay within my calories (there abouts) so that's all that matters to me :) As long as I come in under maintenance at the end of the day, I'm not worried about eating a little bit over my allotted calories, especially not at a weekend!
