| I ask, because I ate a pizza last night. A whole 14 inch gluten free margherita pizza. It was my first in two years. Man was it good! |
| Last one was dinner today. One before that was lunch today… one before that was… |

| There is a difference between straying from your normal heathy choices and all out gorging. Eating a 14 inch pizza alone isn't a stray, that is pathologic food issue. |
Damn you a pig |
Nonsense. Fat = Fat. |
It may not be a pathological food issue, but it certainly is a binge. OP, did you binge because you say, chemically enhanced yourself, or was that a purely pleasurable let go of food control. Or were you so hungry from depriving yourself your mind took a 5 minute break and your impulses took over? Yes, I’ve struggled with binging in the past. I strayed this weekend- over the course of a couple days, I had a few pieces of my favorite cake my mom makes me while I was visiting her. Gained a couple pounds in water weight that’ll fall off in a day or so. I don’t sweat it. |
I would consider that a pathological issue. A couple pieces of pizza is a splurge, if you don't normally eat pizza. Eating an entire pizza entirely different. |

I really don't consider anything 'straying'. I overall eat well so I don't really worry at all that I had taco bell yesterday afternoon. I have that next to never (once every few months) so I don't feel bad when I indulge. But I also didn't go to taco bell and eat four chalupas, nachos and a crunchwrap, I had two supreme soft tacos. I think if you are so restricted that when you 'stray' you binge eat you should perhaps figure out a better relationship with food.
The 'most disciplined' people have eating disorders. |

| My DS' birthday on New Years Eve. I ate a slice of double chocolate cake. |
FFS. No it's not. Eating a 14" thin crust pizza one time is not a pathological food issue. |
A couple pieces of pizza is fine and not even a splurge. It's only a splurge if it results in consistent overeating. There is a disturbing trend in this forum of obsession with food and there is a lot concerning behavior around here. |
OP here. It was definitely a binge, I’m just getting over covid and I’ve been craving carbs, even though most of the time, I try to limit to 100 grams of fruit veggie and gluten free bread or crackers each day. I usually avoid dairy too. But I just really really wanted a pizza. I found a gluten free place, and when it arrived I was like, well I’ll f’ing doing this, it’s been two years, so just eat, enjoy, and get back on track tomorrow. I don’t think it’s a food issue, but some on this board will say that I’m obsessed because I track my carb grams. |

Let's do some pizza math. A 10 inch gluten free cheese pizza is 1280 calories: https://againstthegraingourmet.com/gluten-free-breads
I'll round up to 1300. A 10 inch pizza is 78 square inches, so 16.6 calories per square inch. A 14 inch pizza has 154 square inches, putting OP's pizza at about 2556 calories. It's an indulgence, but not an outrageous binge. I'm glad you enjoyed it, OP. |
