My family of 4 just destroyed these two large pizzas and we are not fat. DH and I just did a teiathlon 2 weeks ago.


Did you make sure to have a side of steamed green beans with those pizzas?


Definitly not. If I had wanted to cook something, i would have skipped ordering pizza and it certainly wouldn't have been green beans.


NP here. Steamed green beans are for hospitals. Add butter or soy sauce or coconut flakes.


Thanks, but I'll pass and leave you to have soy sauce green beans and pizza night all for yourself.


Trust me honey, I won't be all by myself for green beans and pizza night.

But won't they make you flatulent later? Mmmm. Very romantic

My thought, too


+1 I went to a nutrition class that taught me that the appropriate serving of pizza for an adult is 1/3 of a slice. People eat too much pizza.


Well now that's just ridiculous! My debate with myself when eating a frozen pizza is whether I should eat a third of it at one sitting, or half. Dilemma! Thankfully I don't eat pizza much.

One third of a slice..
One third of a slice..
One third of a slice..
I hope that was just a typo,and you meant 1/3 of a pizza,because
That's way too small.

This 100%

Even when we order pizza at work, some coworkers act like they've never had pizza. It's disgusting watching someone inhale 3 slices then go back for more.


Lol

Yes. Especially with eating a salad in addition.


Same here. Sometimes I'll go for two, or for the kid's crust, but one is really enough for an evening meal! No disorder here. Just don't need as many calories these days.


No it's not. You are finishing dinner hungry. Which is fine I guess, but be honest with yourself.


No, get it through your fat head. I ate a piece of pizza! I'm not hungry! If I'm hungry a little later, I have more/something else. (not green beans). If you are hungry while you have pizza in your stomach, you have a cavernous stomach and need to dial it back! It's OK to still want more, but be honest with yourself.

One slice of pizza is 300-400 calories. The average moderately active adult female should take in about 1500 calories a day. You do the math.

Pizza is a "treat yourself" dinner so if I'm ordering it I'm going to have 2 slices! If you're eating it every night that would be a different story.

I really want a slice of pizza now

Growing up, my family of 6 ordered 2 pizzas.

Not cheesy enough. Cheese, toppings, then a bit more cheese to make the toppings feel cozy and appreciated but not obscured.

Family of 6. Growing up we got one large pizza, 12 slices, everyone could have 2. That's plenty of pizza.

Literal LOL


I've never heard of the green beans poster...but I can bet you she's not fat!


At least it's not the "chicken marbella" poster.


I never understand comments like this. How do you know it is the same poster? And, what is the big deal either way?

A blanket rule lime this doesn't really make sense. Not only do adults' dietary needs vary quite a bit due to diffences in age, sex, height, activity level, etc., the nutritional value of a slice of pizza (or a third of a slice of pizza...) varies quite a bit, as well. A slice of pizza that is 1/8 of a 16 inch deep dish pepperoni pizza with extra cheese, for instance, will have a lot more calories (& , most likely, saturated fat) than a slice of pizza that is 1/8 of a 12-inch thin crust margarita pizza.


I calculated the calories for my homemade pizza (thin crust, around 15" and cut into 8 slices), and it came out to 162 calories per slice. 1/3 of that is 54 calories -- hardly enough for a meal. Granted, I don't top it off with mounds of cheese, and I render the fat from any meats I put on it...
