    From my experience, if you keep declining yourself stuff like that, you are setting up yourself to fail. Have that pizza, just remember to not go and stuff yourself to the point where you can’t walk because you’re full. Remember to eat slowly too.

      And halfway through your portion, pause and ask yourself “am I still hungry? Is this filling me?”

      Check in with ur tummy.

        We literally stand up and walk the dog before deciding. Usually we don’t want much if any more.

      you can also just make small modifications to decrease the calorie density of your meals, adding veggies is great.

      Also, life hack: you can eat basically as much fruit as you want when dieting, it’s so filling (due to the water and fibre) that you’re almost guaranteed to be full and probably quite sick of it before you consume a ton of calories.

        Important: Unprocessed fruits, if you drink them as smoothies, the fibre won’t do much if it’s blended down to mush.

          Good point! It’s also way easier to drink things than to chew and swallow them.
