Pizza: Another important question

[Brit]

How many slices do you normally eat? Not huge NY slices, but like Pizza Hut/Papa John's size slices.

Is four a normal number?

[sjh722]

If 4 is wrong, I don't want to be right. We pretty much never have pizza leftovers.

[sassystace]

2 sometimes 3. Four seems like a tummy ache.

[jordylee]

I usually do 2 with 2 or 3 breadsticks, or 3. 4 is reserved for when I am a hangry beast, but it's been known to happen every now and then

[skwcm80]

Usually 1-2 with breadsticks, but I'm not huge fan of pizza to begin with.

[clseale]

2 or 3, but I'm definitely not saying that 4 has never happened.

[finallykrisb]

Thin crust or pan crust? That impacts my answer.

[dragonfly08]

None. :-) I'm not a big fan of pizza, taking a nibble or two from what my kids are eating usually satisfies me. But if I'm somewhere and pizza is my only option, my max is two.

But I've seen my kids put away four slices each, and DH can eat an entire pie, so no...I wouldn't say 4 is unreasonable for a hungry person who likes pizza.

Pizza... leftovers?   (huh)

[gt7301b]

2 and a salad.

[gummybear]

I am a pizza monster. We don't eat chain pizza much but I can easily eat 5 or 6 slices of it. I can eat an entire thin crust on my own. Pizzeria pizza? 4 slices.

*hangs head in shame*

[andrealynn]

I would like to tell you I stop at 2, but then I would be a lying liar. Most of the time I find room for a 3rd slice.

This is exactly what I try to do as well. Key word: try.

[runaways]

3 unless it's a big training cycle, and then probably 4. Or maybe like 8. I won't say it hasn't happened.

[ckinla]

Usually 2. 3 if it's really good. I should add that I eat my weight in cheesy bread though…

[G22]

I'm meh on pizza so my max is typically 1-2. I like breadsticks. Buuuut...Pizza Hut has this new garlic 4 cheese something pizza and OMG I think I had 4-5 pieces of it. It was super good or I may have been borderline starving. lol

[shellfish26]

At least 3. But no, 4 is in no way unacceptable.

[keweenawlove]

Between 2 and 4. Average is probably 3 1/2 though....

[runblondie26]

2 for NY style pizza, but 4 sounds about right for chain pizza. Those aren't big slices.

This thread just vaildated I'm a porker.

[emilyinchile]

3-4 depending on hunger and whether or not I want to let H have more pizza

[mrsjthompson]

Annnddd now I want pizza.

[mrs.jacinthe]

I love pizza and it's a tough time restraining myself, but *usually* two. Sometimes three.

If I were hungry and there were no guilt involved? I could probably knock out half a large Papa Johns - I love their crust with the dippy salt/garlic sauce.

[jene]

3, unless I am training, then it's 4

[greysgirl]

2-3 but I could easily eat 4.

[no0b]

2ish, maybe 3. GF pizza crust seems more filling to me.

[mollyrunner]

I *try to stop at 2 and have a huge salad along side it. But, yes, 4 has happened. And one of my new favorite spots cuts pieces into tiny square and I know I eat more.

[Brit]

If you haven't guessed, usually four for me. I could definitely eat more if I didn't exercise some restraint. Pizza monster here.

[hannahb]

I rarely get pizza (celiacs) but when I make it I can down the whole thing.

[billysgirl07]

This thread makes me feel better about myself! Ideally, I would eat 3 or 4 (I don't really eat the crust though - I know, that's probably flameful!). I'm currently on WW so now typically I limit myself to 2.

[katinthehat]

Anywhere from 2 - 4.

Depends on how hungry the baby is
