Don't you guys feel like pizza is the most comforting food? Especially right now, while the days are getting shorter and colder?!?! And even though we know pizza may not be our healthiest choice, it's comforting -- and sometimes, that's all that matters when you're cold. But the good news is that ordering from our fave -- Pizza Hut -- doesn't need to wreck your diet. The national chain's variety of crusts and toppings mean that you don't need to send your diet out the door with the delivery dude. Try some of these options next time pizza night is calling your name.

* Medium Hand-Tossed Style Chicken Supreme Pizza: If you can't forgo the original crust from our friends at the Hut, try a slice of this flavorful pizza topped with cheese, chicken, mushrooms, mixed peppers, red onions and a blend of herbs and spices for less than 200 calories. Wanna amp up your dish? Order the Naked Traditional wings, but have only two -- and your meal will clock in at around 400 calories.

* Medium Thin N Crispy Veggie Lovers Pizza: Enjoy two slices of this veggie-packed pizza with fresh tomatoes, red onions, green peppers, mushrooms and black olives, and you'll still stay under the 400 calorie mark. Plus, you'll be choosing one of the menu items that's lowest in saturated fat and sodium at Pizza Hut. For less than 50 calories, add a side of marinara sauce for extra flavor, two more grams of fiber and a healthy dose of vitamin C.

* Medium Pan Cheese Pizza: To satisfy your pan pizza crust craving, don't opt for a personal pan pizza which has nearly 600 calories or more, depending on what toppings you choose. Instead, go with one slice of a medium cheese pan pizza for 240 calories. Dig out some raw veggies and hummus from your fridge to round out the meal.

Now all you have to do is call your friends, start a good movie and enjoy the pizza!
