Look for low calorie hints on the menu like "fit," "thin" or "lite." These are all on certain areas of the menu that offer lower calorie options, such as their Fit-n-Delicious Pizzas which range from 150 to 170 calories per slice.

Order your pizza with the Thin N' Crispy crust to consume between 20 to 50 calories less per slice compared to the other crusts offered.

Request half the cheese on your pizza to cut down the calories without losing a lot of the flavor. Avoid the meat-heavy pizzas as they are loaded with calories and fat. Hitting the top of the list is the Large Pan Crust Meat Lovers Pizza at 530 calories/31 g. fat per slice.

Try substituting items to create something just for you. For example, get the Thin n-Crispy crust with no sauce, light cheese and lots of veggies for a low-calorie solution.

Tips & Warnings
Always order the thinnest crust possible and load up on veggies instead of meats for topping.
Order and eat a salad first to fill up faster before you start on the pizza.
Never order extras of high calorie items such as cheese, sausage, bacon, bread or sauces.
Avoid using their dips and use a low-cal favorite you already have at home.
Avoid the personal pan pizzas; it may sound like a better idea because they are pre-portion controlled, but they range from 560 calories for the Veggie Lovers to 890 calories for the Meat Lovers.
Avoid the sides--they are full of calories and fat and there is really no way around it. Two hot wings (120 cal.) and dipping sauce (220 cal.) and a breadstick (150 cal.) adds up to 3 1/2 slices of the Fit n' Delicious Pizza.
