*BEFORE READING THIS* have a peek at the post of my food diary from yesterday. You'll see that I consumed nearly 3500 calories and almost 600g of carbohydrates (mostly simple carbs from sugary stuff).

It was hot outside yesterday, so I drank a lot of water (+/- 2 gallons) so I wouldn't retain or dehydrate.

I ate in a SURPLUS of 537 calories and still managed to drop weight!

Now, I'm not trying to lose weight here, but making the point that carbs do not make you fat!

If anything, that surplus should've caused a gain, but all the water over the past few days just hit me with a whoosh, so...

I'm not magical. No hocus pocus. In fact, yesterday was such an incredibly slow-paced day of just sitting in the cool of my living room watching TV and reading and then jumping on the computer to mess around. The most aerobic thing I did was water the garden for a few minutes and pick some weeds before taking a drive for an hour with no destination... just cruising around.

THAT'S IT! You can't get much more sedentary!

Totally unproductive and lazy, so my system was as slow as it'll ever be.

With all those carbs, FOR SURE I should've gained fat!? Nope. Just as keto trains a body to use fat as fuel, a high-carb diet makes highly-efficient use of carbohydrates 😉

No macro (in excess even) can make you gain weight unless there's a caloric surplus... and even then it's only "more likely" 👍🏼

You must love to drive if you do it for a living and still just to cruise around. (I know that wasn't the point to your post- but that's what I took from it.) LOL. Whatcha growin in the garden? Hopefully not potatoes... all the carbs. Yikes.

The water is the thing. If I get complacent and don't chug my water, I'm up at least a pound. Of course it might be from having to run to the bathroom all the time. Extra exercise. :)

Carbs don't make you fat, and certainly not from just 1 day of over eating them :)

Exactly. There will always be confusion when you have charlatans trying to make money by misleading people. :(

Your muscle increases your metabolic burn...just sitting around burns more...you go!

Isn't it only 3-4 calories per pound of muscle? I think that the biggest factor in the burn of someone who has mucle/strength is how much weight they move at the gym. That's where the real energy is needed.
