Tricks for Ordering a Healthier Pizza for Weight Loss

 

Choose Thin Crust:  Opt for thin crust instead of regular or deep-dish crust to reduce calories and carbs.

 

Load Up on Veggies:  Load your pizza with a variety of vegetables like bell peppers, spinach, mushrooms, and tomatoes.

 

Lean Protein:  Select lean protein toppings such as grilled chicken, turkey sausage, or lean cuts of ham instead of fatty meats

 

Go Easy on Cheese:  Cheese is delicious but can be high in calories and fat. Ask for light cheese or opt for varieties

 

Watch the Sauce:  Choose marinara sauce over creamy or Alfredo sauces. Marinara tends to be lower in calories and fat.

 

Portion Control:  Order a smaller pizza size or share with others to control portions and avoid overeating.

 

Skip the Stuffed Crust: Stuffed crust pizzas add extra calories and fats. Stick with regular crust options.

 

Consider Whole Wheat:  If available, opt for whole wheat crust for added fiber and nutrients.
