My thought, too[/quote]

+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.[/quote]

Yeah, that 1/3 of a slice seems off.  1/3 of a frozen pizza is typically a serving size with about 300 calories.  But 1/3 of a slice of delivery?  At kids' birthday parties and sports the slices are often cut in half.  They're small.  I can't imagine 1/3 a slice satisfying a teenager or adult, even with salad, veggies, etc.   [/quote]

I think she misheard the nutritionist. Maybe she was there for a weight loss class?

A large pepperoni pizza on normal crust is around 2800 calories.

Divide that by 8 slices and you get about 350 clories.

Divide that slice by a third and you get about 116 calories.  Not a reasonable meal for a normal adult.

No one said a healthy meal should consist only of pizza.  Eat a third of a slice and add something else---perhaps...green beans and fruit?

So pizza as an appetizer? I lost weight using MFP and on average cheese pizza is 250cal. IF I had pizza, I eat 2 slices ans call it a day. No need to eat greenbeans on pizza night.  Defeats the purpose.[/quote]

I guess I don't just eat one thing for a meal.  Pizza (i.e. Carbs+cheese) for me goes with salad. Variety is the spice of life and all...[/quote]

You sound uptight.[/quote]

You sound monotonous.  [/quote]
