Which cheat looks better?

slaydox · 10-12-2006, 09:37 PM

Tommorow i was planning on having a cheat day and my cheat meal for the day was either going to be all you can eat at cici's pizza or all you can eat pancakes at dennys

Each piece of pizza at cici's is about 150 calories along with the cheese bread and stuff
The Pancakes are 440 calories a plate and anyone who has eaten at dennys knows the pancake plates consist of 3 pretty big pancakes..

To me the pancakes look like the better deal
what do you guys think?

mnways · 10-12-2006, 09:46 PM

Sooo go for the pancakes!! soo yummy + all you can eat!

slaydox · 10-12-2006, 09:50 PM

So true! plus i very highly doubt i could get through 2 plates lol
but with the pizza...god i could easily eat 10+ pieces
there pieces are pretty small lol so...thats 1500-2000 calories at that meal or pancakes...880 calories for the whole meal

pancakes looking mighty good!

Blane/Cope · 10-12-2006, 09:52 PM

pancakes hands down bro, since we are on the subject, have you tried the harvest grain and nut pancakes from IHOP? they are awsome especially with a little of IHOPS butter pecan syrup.

mnways · 10-12-2006, 09:57 PM

wow have not heard of this peaccan syrup yum!! But yeah pancakes yummy plus if you wanna cheeat but not go EXTREME Dennys has sugar free syrup to lol.

FarEastBeast · 10-12-2006, 09:59 PM

Pancakes sounds better, but pizza will give you more protein. Just food for thought.

slaydox · 10-12-2006, 10:02 PM

mm alright guys its decided all you can eat pancakes it is!! lol
and yea i love IHOPS im actually gonna go see how many pancakes you get with them now

Mike.Gayner · 10-12-2006, 10:06 PM

It's much easier to severely overeat with pizza than with pancakes - even for a cheat meal this is quite a consideration. Though if it were me, the decision would be easy because I dont really have much of a sweet tooth

slaydox · 10-12-2006, 10:07 PM

Lol yea pizza is great but like you said its easy to over eat
im gonna have pizza maybe next month for my sisters b-day so ill wait but the pancakes...well im a sucker for pancakes lol

Have both

Your really lean so I highly doubt a day of cheating wont do much damage or any at all.

ana_bolic · 10-13-2006, 12:06 AM

wow its been so long since ive had a cheat meal...just reading it makes my mouth water.....go for pizza and pancakes

Guns_MacGruder · 10-13-2006, 12:11 AM

If it was me I'd go for pizza. yum

ceilos456 · 10-13-2006, 04:02 AM

That was my point. Two big stacks of pancakes will get you like 8 grams of incomplete protein. All you can eat pizza will get you well over 50 grams of complete protein and saturated fat which will do you good in moderation. Plus you get a ton of lycopene and vitamin c from the tomato sauce - not to mention the added protein and vitamins you get from any meat or veggies. Pancakes are great, but it's basically all simple carbs, no protein, no vitamins - total junkfood. I'd at least drink a quart or so of milk with all those pancakes.

slaydox · 10-13-2006, 09:30 AM

You raise some very good points about the protein and stuff
hmm im starving right now so this is making it worse lol im gonna go eat a bowl of tuna =D lol
BTW what do you guys think a tuna toped pizza would taste like?
might be good but i dunno

ElHombre · 10-13-2006, 10:07 AM

in spain we have tuna pizzas...really if you put a bit of ham/bacon on it or just cheese, it tastes awesome. tuna + bacon pizza in spain is fairly common.

slaydox · 10-13-2006, 10:09 AM

mm im gonna try that out one day
it sounds yummy

Blane/Cope · 10-13-2006, 10:34 AM

you could always eat some chicken breast or tuna before you go to IHOP so that your still getting enough protein in for the day. im going tonight baby! bring on the harvest grain and nut with a little butter pecan!

C. Griswald · 10-13-2006, 10:40 AM

cici's pizza

slaydox · 10-13-2006, 10:43 AM

haha yea i just had a bowl of tuna fish! mm i mixed it with some garlic and black pepper =D lol
but now im getting ready to ride about 4miles on a bike so those pancakes will be tasting pretty good later tonight im also gonna have them before my workout so ill have some carbs for my workout to refuel me! lol

Riceboi · 10-13-2006, 11:16 AM

Pizza from a good place is the best cheat in the world. Nothing comes close in my book.

I read this in the "losing fat" section and I thought to myself "He's going to go to Cici's and eat that damn pizza" LOL

i really want to go to cici's tommorow and eat all you cant eat pizza but i know ill feel like poo afterwards for eating so much =(

My advice...don't do it!!!

We have Denny's down here and yes...those pancakes are bigoomba big man...

HOWEVER if you are going to eat them I'd say leave off the margarin and ask for sugar free syrup.

slaydox · 10-13-2006, 12:07 PM

Yea i agree im ordering it without the butter, i was planning on bringing my own fat free i cant beleive its not butter and then using to sugar free syrup but bringing my own butter would look kinda wierd lol

Who gives a **** what people think?

That'll maybe wake up all the fat asses sitting around you in their teal elastic spandex outfits to start thinking they need to lay off the lumberjack meals...

slaydox · 10-13-2006, 01:19 PM

haha so true but i wonder if the denny's still has the all you can eat pancakes for $3.50 hmm

dave is cool · 10-13-2006, 01:23 PM

Forget pancakes, pizza is so much better.

Crunchbar · 10-13-2006, 01:27 PM

i would asume there is prob more protein in pizza because of the cheese, more calcium also, and there is new studies out there that cooked tomotoes have special benefits (pizza sauce

)

If you were to maybe order the grand slam breakfast or somthing that comes with eggs and stuff then maybe the pancakes might be ok.

From a nutrition standpoint i would go with the pizza, and throw some veggies on top if u like that lol (I LOVE VEGIE PIZZA)

But remember it is a cheat, and during a cheat, you are supose to go with what you like more.

either way, i recomend eating whatever you do slowly as to give yourself time to get full. If you eat it fast you will eat way to much.

drinking water while i eat also helps me eat slower and feel fuller

anyways have a nice cheat!

hope i helped

slaydox · 10-13-2006, 01:36 PM

Yea but im unsure that denny's does all you can eat pancakes so i just might be going with the pizza lol
anyone know if denny's has all you can eat pancakes? could have sworn they did
