Pizza

  • How does Pizza figure into this plan?? I like thin crust...
  • I think you can have 1 slice, but my problem is I can't stop at 1 slice!!! so I choose to stay away from it!!!
  • Yes, you can fit in just about anything as long as the portion is ok/the calories are in check. One small slice with a salad for example (no fatty dressing on the salad either)! LOL
  • I am really growing fond of lemon juice on my salad! Maybe its my imaginaton but the salad just seems crispier with lemon juice!
  • Well I had one slice with mushrooms and a very large salad with balsamic vinegar... I figure I have a week until weigh in - I ought to be able to indulge my pizza madness now and then...
  • Do you have a loacl pizzeria with whole wheat thin crust? God, I love Milwaukee. If it goes great with beer, they deliver!

    Otherwise, try Lean Cuisine. They have french bread pizza and small deep dish pizzas.

    Also, (and you know I am not the cook here) get whole wheat pitas or whole wheat tortillas. Put a small amount of sauce (watch what's in it!) on just for taste and sprinkle with low fat cheese. Keep your toppings in the veggie category. This tastes best in a toaster oven or regular oven. You'll get the flavor without the delivery fee!
  • I pick up. Most places will deliver - but we have four dogs. So when the doorbell rings I want to shoot myself in the head. I would rather just get in my car and go git the stuff, LOL... I make mini pizzas on eng muffins too - ds loves that!
  • I truely know how you feel with the barking. I only have 1 dog and that barking drives me insane. I could only imagine with 4 dogs!
  • We pick up everything, we have a Doberman and he is an excellent watchdog...just easier isn't it than to have all that barking and carring on and in our case scaring the poor delivery person!

  • You guys are sooo funny!! I pick up, too!! My Halle loves people and thinks that everyone that comes to the door is especially here to see her! I think if someone were to break in, they would have to stop and rub her belly and then step over her to get in - she loves to have her belly rubbed and never met a stranger.
  • Really how we went from pizza to dogs!!! lol

  • I don't have dog but I have neighbor dogs who love me! I am such a sucker. We have a pet store in my neighborhood called "Metropawlis"- cute, huh? They have the greatest chew toys- they had Bush and Kerry chew toys for the last election... the joys of being a front line state, right? The dogs in my neighborhood voted!

    We tried the Lean Cuisine margherita pizza tonight- it was OK. Like 320 or 340 calories or something.

    I'm still seeking the perfect slice...
