I am seeking diet help?

[nevooo]

this question will seem stupid, sure. i am on a diet, and some friends brought over pizza, and i didn't eat any. they would up leaving half a pie. and i wanna eat it pretty bad, but i feel like yeah its not gonna kill me, but I've only been on a diet for 2 weeks, im not starving myself or anything, im just eating cleaner foods, without lots of sugars, salts or fats. i was gonna make new york strip steak with airfried potatos for dinner, and im just wondering from anyone who knows, how much worse is a lets say, 18 oz steak and maybe an entire potato than pizza, or visa versa, part of me may be fishing for an excuse to eat the pizza aswell, so say it how it is.

Dude I feel your struggle. Dieting is hard when there's tasty temptations around. But you gotta stay strong if you want results, right? Here's what I'd do in your situation:

The steak and potato will definitely be a healthier, cleaner meal than the pizza. But it's only been 2 weeks - one little slip up won't totally mess things up. If it was me, I'd save half the pizza for later. Eat the steak and potato for your main meal since you prepared it already. Then if you're still craving something later, have the other half of the pizza for dessert.

That way you still get to enjoy a treat while mostly sticking to your diet. Just don't make a habit of it or you won't see progress. And get right back on track with clean meals tomorrow. As long as you don't binge the whole pie I think a small splurge is fine every now and then. Stay focused on your goals and you got this! Let me know if any other diet questions come up.

Pizza is loaded with simple carbs, saturated fat, sodium and most things that are not good when dieting. But then an 18 oz steak and potato may not be much better depending on how prepared and what you put on it. The steak probably has about 1900 calories and the potato about 200 so 2100 calories total begore any toppings or ssuces. One slice of the pizza is probably only about 500 calories depending on the toppings and don't forget all calories are not equal.

i put garlic powder, and paprika on the steak, with some garlic herb seasoning, 0 salt, and lemon pepper. for the potatos, just paprika and i dipped the potato in homemade salsa. like, mexican style salsa.

"Maybe half a pound chicken on wheat bread ", you said that so casually 😂

Bro well what's your goal, if you are very serious about fat loss then eat very very less

Forget the steak

[nevooo]

my goal is just to put higher quality foods in my body, cutting out processed meats, sugar, high amounts of fat, also salt. half a pound of chickens only 8oz, which is around 550 calories. im not worried about starving myself and eating very less, i dont need to lose weight rapidly, im sure with my diet changes not only will i lose weight over time but i will also have a healthier body.
