What is more fattening 400 calories of rice or 400 calories of eggs?

[patrenna]

eggs are 62% fat while rice is 2% fat

[DougyF7]

Should be equally as fattening or skinnying.

Easy af

Eggs

If you eat just 400 calories of only white rice there is literally 0 chance of that getting converted to fat (besides the 2grams of fat)

Meanwhile 400 calls of eggs you have like 30-40g of fat that can be converted to fat

At the end of the day/week/year your body is just going to lump it all in to the total fuel intake numbers.

Voodoo math only works in the short term.

no difference, change my mind

This. If your talking about gaining weight.

It's the other things at play bloodwork-wise that change.

I think Dr. Layne Norton PhD talked about it one time. They all have similar building blocks chemically, so at the end of the day youre a giant biological engine that breaks them all down. You eat more calories than you burn, you will gain wait.

However, as a said, if you each 2000 calories of big macs a day, sure you will slowly lose weight, but it comes with a whole host of other "issues" that eating 100% processed food will cause.

It would be 100g of carbs, or 44 grams of fat

Ye I’m just looking at the two meals alone

Also I think I found a glitch in CICO. What happens if after you eat all your meals for the day you wake up during the night and eat a bunch of dextrose(not regular sugar) to fill your muscles up with glycogen then back to sleep and wait 6 hours to eat breakfast?

Theoretically you would be going over your calorie limit but there would be absolutely no way to gain fat from pure dextrose carbs alone 6 hours before your first meal

Dextrose alone with nothing else added can’t turn into fat it’s impossible, you’d have to be overfilled on muscle glycogen which is hard if not impossible to do

you wouldn't gain fat from a one day surplus anyway, it's going to take time (a week?) for your body to adjust to the new energy balance. that's why you can have a 2000 calorie surplus today, a 2000 calorie deficit tomorrow, and it's like nothing ever happened
