Thanks guys. I've been drinking water like crazy today and the scale is only up a pound from this morning (it's usually up 2-3 by the evening) so I think the water is helping.
I did 6 miles on the bike as the treadmill in my crappy apt gym was out again. Better than nothing I guess.
Here's to hoping my 4 slices didn't add 4 pounds to my butt! =P
Ack, pizza is evil! I don't know that I could withstand the temptation if my hubby brought that home. This sounds like a trigger food for you, too. Can you ask him to help you and not bring pizza home anymore?

What type of pizza was it? Deep dish? Regular or thin crust? What was on it?
I only ask because pizza doesn't have to be evil or off limits. With a bunch of kids and a husband pizza is pretty popular here. We order 2 medium pizzas (the slices are smaller then a large) and one has just cheese (not extra cheese) and the other has what the husband likes. 2 slices with some veggies or pineapple and chicken (my favs!) and I am good to go, don't feel deprived and didn't sabotage my entire day. We get our pizza from a local place and it seems to be A LOT less greasy then the big chains.
I agree with the others also. Drink lots of water and excersize. You'll feel better. That's what I plan on doing today. Somebody (me) is getting ready for 2 birthday parties and somebody (me) "sampled" her share of some chips and french onion dip. I am hoping I will be soar after my workout so I am not tempted to do too much sampling as I make the THREE birthday cakes I have to make! LOL!
Yikes, We have a pizza ban in our house because I'd do the same thing. Can't resist the stuff! If DH wants it he takes our oldest out to CiCi's. That way there's none coming home.
I like to put Pizza sauce, a bit of Mozzarella, and a bunch of veggies on Lowcal English muffins. After two of them I'm usually over my craving. It's pretty good!
Have you tried making your own pizza so that you can count every single calorie in it and know just how much you can have? I load mine with onion, mushrooms, green pepper, black olives turkey Italian sausage and turkey pepperoni on a whole grain pizza crust. Ant he sauce I use is only 10cal per serving, and I go a little light on cheese.
I'm also weak when it comes to pizza. I've been having us make our own. I use an 8" whole wheat pita and I buy a thicker, white pita for my boyfriend. He puts pepperoni on his, but I get to stick with veggies on mine and I find it's not too bad.
I love pizza! Love it, love it, love it! So, if I want some, I make it at home, as healthy as I can as for your workout on the treadmill. If you ever want to mix up your workout on the treadmill, turn sideways and gallop for 1 minute and then turn the other way and gallop for another minute.
