[QUOTE="cugila, post: 107806, member: 15325"] Most definitely, that's why it is termed the 'Pizza Effect'.....never take anything for granted. Foods that have a high fat content (i.e., over 25 g), such as pizza, peanuts, and ice cream, can cause a delayed blood glucose spike. The fat in these foods slows the absorption of carbohydrates, which can result in normal levels two to three hours after eating and elevated blood glucose up to eight hours after. Just to give you an idea of what you might have eaten at Pizza Express, one 100g portion of The American contains 87.3g carbs :shock: and also 32.4g Fat. :shock: . You really need to do your homework when eating this stuff. It could also be the reason why your weight loss has stalled with that sort of carb consumption. You are not the first to be caught out by this, and you definitely won't be the last ! :wink: [/QUOTE]
