My advice that you didn't ask for is not to look for excuses to eat pizza. Never ended well for me.

Excellent insight, speculation and advice. Thanks Teaser and Rob!

When I do over-carb (like way over carb) I don't really feel any boost of energy or any super noticeable effects except the pleasure of the indulgence. I also seem to get right back to fat burning quickly and without any cravings or keto flu stuff - just get fatter in a hurry and perhaps do some damage to my body.
