Stomach virus?: Either you were coincidentally coming down with a stomach virus( gastroenteritis) or there was something bad in the pizza. Either way, treatment is the same, bowel rest for 12 hours, means drinking only clear fluids. See how things progress after that but surely keep hydrated .

Vomiting: This sounds like food poising to a toxin that was already on the food. Did anyone else get ill when they ate the pizza. It also could have nothing to do with the food and just be a coincidence and be a virus.

Done with pizza: Could be related to the food you just ate - did anybody else get sick? It could just be coincidence and this is really the early onset of a stomach bug (viral). Give your gut some rest - keep hydrated with clear fluids for a day then you can start eating again. Choose foods that are easy to digest initially (saltines, dry toast, apple sauce, etc).
