Well, I was in a situation yesterday where a Domino's was inevitable.
So, I whipped out my Windows mobile phone and downloaded the nutritional information from their website. I found that a personal Piri-Piri pizza had 20 cals more than the evening meal I'd normally have, and wasn't a carb disaster. You can even get low-fat mozarella cheese so I thought this would be the one to get, for damage limitation and then work hard for the rest of the week.
But wait, if I ordered a medium size pizza I could get it in thin crust, four slices of that would add up to even less calories.
So the pizza arrived, everyone else was eating and enjoying theirs, and mine was very tasty.
You can see where this went...
So 900 calories and 80g of carbs later I'm feeling bloated and over-full. And my stomach gurgled and complained for the rest of the night, and mentally I'm feeling stupid and that I haven't learned a thing when the crunch came. And it definately wasn't worth it come the cold light of day.
I wouldn't care, if I *had* ordered the personal one I'd have had the four slices and just stopped there...
Anyway, gotta put it behind me and move on. Trouble is, it's a family member's 18th birthday tomorrow and it's BBQ time once again. I'll be good though, like the last one.
