    If it you it to the extreme, sure. But the foundation of losing weight in any context is calories in < calories burned.

    I tried to get my dad to stop drinking soda for years when I was growing up. Dude drank 8+ cans a day. He finally quit drinking soda, and was for some reason surprised when he started losing weight. Changes as simple as that, just ordering a size down of what you normally would when you do esst fast food, etc. all can add up big time.



  • Used to deliver for them, can confirm all the above. Some other stuff:

    • Yes there’s less of each individual topping when you order a bunch of different toppings, but I promise you that you don’t want a normal amount of each topping on your supreme pizza. The center would still be raw, probably even if you put it through twice.
    • The 50% weeks are mostly a scam. It’s usually cheaper to use the other good coupons (e.g. mix and match) than to take 50% off normal menu price
    • Unless you’ve got a big/otherwise pain in the ass to deliver order, a $10 order is just as much work to deliver as a $60 order. I personally tip based off distance rather than total because of it, and most my coworkers also preferred this method.
    • Brooklyn pizzas are just normal pizzas using dough 2 sizes smaller (for example an XL brooklyn is just a medium dough stretched thin). In general if you’re looking to maximize food per dollar, normal hand tossed is what you want
    • For the love of God don’t buy soda from the store if there’s a gas station or something that’s not out of the way. It’ll be half the price at most.
    • The dishes probably aren’t being cleaned properly. If you’re lucky your local store has 1, maybe 2 closers who actually give a shit and try to do it right. I imagine that’s pretty standard in food service though.
    • If you order delivery 2 minutes before close, you’re braver than I. I had a hard policy of don’t fuck with peoples food but not everyone does, and you sure as fuck aren’t getting it on time.
