    I'm really new to MFP...but I've lost 4 pounds in 2 weeks. I NEEDED pizza the other day. So, I ate some. Just eat a slice - chewed really slow (lol) and not the whole pizza. The new Fiber One brownies are really good for the chocolate cravings. They're very small...and 90 calories, but have lots of fiber. If I deny myself the things I really love, then I'm sure to fail.

    sometimes you jst want something that you know you can't have
    and tortilla pizzas you can have any old day

    have some real pizza

    Just do it. Count it out and do it up

    Why not make those things with substitutions. For example, when I want pizza I buy a portobello mushroom cap (used in place of crust) and poor light marinera on top of it with 2% moz cheese. Bake then enjoy! For pasta I use spaghetti squash instead of noodles. You get the same fix without the unwanted cals/fat/etc. :)

    I tried a portobello mushroom pizza last night! It was surprisingly delicious!

    This is what I would do. Just eat whatever you want, but make sure to log it, and still try to fit within your calorie goal.

    Keep in mind that this should be a lifestyle change, not a diet. So, consider how you want to eat for the rest of your life. Are you really never going to eat pizza or buffalo wings again? I would just eat one slice of pizza and one or two buffalo wings and save the rest as leftovers. Just have what you want, and try not to go overboard.
