So I have conditioned myself NOT to order pizza.

The big thing I find that helps with fries and pizza is to just make it at home once in a while, home made baked fries, thin crust pizzas with lots of veggies and lite cheese. Generally that will kill the cravings for a while. If I'm out with friends I dont' worry about it mostly since I don't see my friends that often. Hot sauce, pepper and salsa are also much healthier options as condiments verses mayo, ranch and salt. Another good substitue for salt is Lemon Juice. If you watch the guys at opa, it's jsut seasoning with lemon juice, just choose the greek seasoningm, generally it's herbs and spices with little salt.
Homemade alternatives have been a big key to curbing my cravigns for specific things anyways.
