Honestly, it depends on my mood. Maybe 2 slices, maybe half the damn thing. While my weight isn't bad, and I do eat fairly healthy, I do stress/emotionally eat when things get really bad.

Really depends on the situation and style of pizza. Neapolitan-style, with a light crust and minimal toppings, I'd probably do all or most of it. If it's American delivery-style, that would be too much, just based on mass—in that case I'd probably do 2 slices for a lighter meal (where I have to actually be able to function afterward), or half the pie for a drunk/high/I-hate-myself meal.

If I haven't eaten anything else that day I will suck that whole thing deep down.

Actually on my cheat days I order 2 normal size pizzas and eat them both.

I used to be able to polish off a large pizza with ease but old age and lactose intolerance has made it that 2 slices can satisfy me.

I'll eat the whole thing, but that's occasionally worrisome.

Mainly when you finish a meal, and immediately feel tired.

1/4th + 1 slice. Then 1/2 the final slice 2 hours later pending negotiations.

For lovers
Half the pizza now, half tomorrow for lunch.

This is a system that has served me well for years.

For a real pizza I usually eat two slices. If its digiorno or something I eat 4 to feel full.

Depends.

Now if it's chain pizza (dominos, Pizza hut......) And I haven't eaten in 10hrs I could eat the whole thing. But same situation with real pizza I could probably only do 3-4 slices. I think it's because of the dough, chain pizza is so light and airy in comparison to real pizza.

If I haven't eaten anything in the whole day and this is the only thing I'm eating in a cheat day? Shit baby you know I unhinged my jaw and shotgun that whole thing.

1 slice most the time. Unless it is beach pizza (which is a local thing I think) and then I could easily eat 2... maybe a 3rd if I was super hungry.

Edit - And now I'm craving beach pizza, and putting in an order lol.

They are usually cut in 8 slices so 2-3 slices if there is more slices, still the same percentage.

Depends on how hungry I am. I can normally eat half now, half later. Only on rare occasions (when I'm near the brink of starvation) will I eat the whole thing in one sitting.

There's so many variables. How hungry am I, how thick is the crust, how heavy the cheese and toppings, etc. My most likely answer is between 1/4 and 1/2, inclusive, for hand-tossed/pan pizza. A frozen thin crust pizza, I could eat the whole thing pretty easily.

In October, I ate 18 slices of pizza in one buffet.

I am eating the whole thing.

(I have a BMI of 20, for reference.)

i mean, like. How high I am will really help me out here. Probably the whole thing, but if I'm sober, 3/4ths and then I come back two hours later and am like "well this pizza has just been sitting out, it'll go bad soon if I don't eat it".

The days I eat pizza I purposefully eat nothing else but that so I attempt to generally eat the entire thing. but usually theirs like 4 slices left depending on the size.

14" is a large? Okay yeah sure, let's go with that.

The entire thing goes without a second thought.

If I'm eating something else with it, like a salad, bread sticks, etc. Half.
If just by itself, 3/4, and save 2 slices for a snack later.

Considerations when I order pizza

Hungry and feeling cheap- 1 pizza

Starving-2 pizzas

Yes, I have eaten two large before but typically I dont because I really dislike that stuffed feeling.
