We all have dreams -- like participating in a beauty pageant, or downing a huge slice of pizza. Well, one Long Island woman has achieved both.

Sarah Gould, who recently competed in the Miss New York Beauty Pageant, shared a video of her attempting to eat the slice:

I really want abs but I want pizza more. #throwbackthursday #throwback #tbt to a few months ago when I ate a slice bigger than my head. I am in need of a repeat/do-over/]not fall under peer pressure to stop. What do I look like, a quitter? @pizzabarnyonkers I will see you soon. I challenge you to make a #superslice even bigger and maybe it will actually be a challenge. #womanvsfood #pizza #lieats #nyc #longisland #foodie #justeatit #foodporn #fatgirlproblems #foodaddict #noregrets

"I really want abs but I want pizza more," she joked. Gould bought the slice at Pizza Barn in Yonkers, New York. The pizzeria is known for its massive and creative slices:

Gould's video soon went viral, getting thousands of views. While she didn't finish the slice, she's confident she could've: "I ate half because I knew I would be happy to have leftovers and I was," she told Express. "However, I could have definitely finished it because I wasn't even full."

The 25-year-old didn't expect her video to get the reception it has. "I never expected it to blow up like this -- it's just been crazy," she said.
