Why are people so enthusiastic about the cauliflower crust pizza?! It tastes GROSS!... and you end up still craving a real pizza!
A pizza won't make you fat.... you must overeat 3,500 calories to gain a single pound! So if you feel bloated after eating a pizza is because of the yeast, the salt and the glycogen from the carbs that also retain water in the body.
But THE LESS CARBS you eat, THE MORE they will bloat you and the faster you'll gain weight from them.
You can have a pizza on a daily basis if you want.. it just depends how you prep it. Choose low-fat mozzarella cheese over the full-fat, go with the lean ham, avoid pepperoni and if you love veggies, load on them.
The crust doesn't have to be thick to satisfy your cravings... you can make a thin crust or use a whole-wheat pita bread which makes a perfectly portioned pizza crust for an every day lunch.
Pizza is actually a healthy meal if you choose the right ingredients. It contains all the macros your body needs and it won't give you that sugar rush that will make you tired after lunch. Just keep practice portion control and if you are on the go, order a pizza without cheese. That is actually the one ingredient that throws your macros out of balance, because it's loaded with fat. If you get a pizza with ham or other lean meats, you will still get your protein in.. don't forget that the crust contains proteins, as well!
