I do watch what I eat. I watch it go from my hand to my mouth.

From WW message boards re: cheese on pizza:

Most of the points come from the crust and other toppings, so it doesn’t affect points much but…. One slice of large one-topping hand-tossed crust pizza from one of the chain pizza places (Papa Johns, Pizza Hut, etc.) averages 0.6 ounces of cheese.
0.6 ounces of part-skim milk mozzarella cheese is 45/2.8/0 while whole milk mozzarella cheese is 49/3.8/0 (per calorieking.com).

That calculates to approximately one point off per slice.

For a thin crust pizza from a chain, it is usually .25-.40 ounces of cheese on TWO slices of a large pizza (20/1.5/0—32/2.5/0).

When we get pizza from a ‘pizzeria’ and not a chain, there tends to be a bit more cheese. For a one-topping slice from a medium or large pizza, it is usually more like ¾ of an ounce per slice--60/4.6/0.
