All of our answers are opinions. And I would think that is what the OP was asking for when posing the question. Most answers of posts on here are just opinions and personal experience.

I don't think you understand what I'm saying. I've explained it every way I know how. If you can eat 600 calories of pizza, which to your own admittance is 2 slices and feel full good for you. I would not feel full with two slices of pizza. So 600 calories on 2 slices would not be a smart choice in my opinion. So I would…

Did I say that? I don't think so. What I said was that if people on MFP had the self control you apparently did they would not need help deciding between burgers, pizza, or anything else. Most people who are overweight are that because they are not good at eating in moderation or making smart food choices. That's why we…

It demonstrates why many people think pizza is bad when on a diet. Moderation is a key to losing weight. But you want to feel full with what you eat so you want to eat something that satisfies you and fulfills you. 280 is a lot of calories for what you get with a pizza square. So you may not be able to have much of it…

You can, but would it be as filling as putting all those calories to a burger instead of two small squares of pizza?

Also I look at it this way: if you show me a small square of thin crust pizza and say "you can have this one square for 280 calories or you can put that 280 towards the 400 of a burger and have that instead." I'm going to choose the bigger more fulfilling burger that is a meal in itself, over a square or two of pizza that…

So you've eaten 800+ calorie burgers? Also, just because you can stop and feel full at two slices doesn't mean everyone or even most people can. Or else they wouldn't be on here right now dieting and asking these sorts of questions.

Pizza at any place is pretty standard amount of calories. Across the board, You are not going to find a pizza place where slices are less than 200 calories a slice. Burgers are not. A burger at McDonald's may be less calories then a burger at Wendy's and so forth. In either case, most people can stop at one burger and the…

I think some people look at others calling certain foods bad or horrible the wrong way. In some people's minds they are "bad" for them or their diet goals because they don't have the self control to eat certain foods in moderation. Although I'm dieting, I still eat a burger like once a week, but I stay away from pizza for…

Yeah but I'm talking about regular delivery style pizza or frozen. Which is what most people get. Not some evil concoction made up at home with a veggie crust, barely no cheese or meat. I assumed the OP was asking about standard take home or restaurant pizza or burger. Even if the burger is at a take out place I think it's…

This!!! Im this way with chips. Even when I buy the individual small portioned bags. I can't stop at just one bag if there are several still in the house. I'm always amused how people on these MFP boards get sensitive whenever someone calls certain foods bad. Is food like your baby that you feel forced to defend or…

I think what the OP is looking for is a shake that helps starve off hunger by making you feel full. I think that's what she means by "better for weight loss." Because obviously if you feel full you won't want to eat more. I don't know too much about shakes for that but I know they exist. (Maybe something with high fiber?)…

I would say pizza is worst. I think one square slice is like 200+ calories on average. And most people eat several slices, so the calories can add up fast. Not many people can eat only one or two slices and walk away, so it's easier to end up binging on. A hamburger can be made with different types of lean meats and lower…

Carnation instant breakfast chocolate shake.

Applause! Spot on!

Because you're taste change and you might one day like it. I'm not saying eat something you hate everyday, I'm saying try what you hate occasionally to see if you can ever like it. Maybe try it in different ways or preparations to see if you might like it.

Same difference. You know you normally don't like them so you force yourself to keep trying it to see if you could end up liking it

Ok, so that makes a little more sense. The egg gets sort of cooked by the hot rice. So it's not entirely raw

Because it's about trying to like something that you normally don't. I get what the poster is saying. I think certain things look really good and I want to like them but I for some reason I just don't. Mustard, olives, nuts, sushi...I'm hoping my tastes change over time and if I keep trying these things maybe one day I'll…

So to not "act entitled" we need to eat whatever we are given whether we like it or not? Well until I'm air dropped onto a deserted island or a poor third world country where I'd be forced to "make due", I'm going to go on eating what I want. I work hard to afford the food I want to eat and I don't feel bad about it!

I understand what Elsing is saying. I have always hated mustard. Despised it...and I still do. This is hard because I'm from Chicago where it's practically mandatory to love mustard and eat it on hot dogs. It always looks so good when I see people enjoying it on hot dogs or sausages. Every now and then I'll try it again…

Can someone explain to me this thing with eating rice and a raw egg? It sounds disgusting to me, but I keep seeing it mentioned on these boards and I'm wondering why people eat that?

I know I read this somewhere years ago that green tea can help boost metabolism. Can't remember though where I saw it. Maybe it was when I was doing Weight Watchers. Because I remember that I started buying green tea on a regular basis. But most people on here says it has nothing to do with losing weight or improving…

Yeah it's still not working. Who do we talk to to get it fixed? I'd prefer to use this app to track my food instead of the fit bit app

Really? Ok thanks. I hope it gets fixed

Or..go to Starbucks, or McDonalds, or Dunkin Donuts. Get non fat milk

I don't believe that. They could do the measuring math for you and enter different serving sizes as options. Usually the manufacturer only list one sort of serving size on the package. So that doesn't explain why when you scan different products into MFP there are different serving size options. It's just not consistent…
