I don't gain weight when I eat 4000 calories beef daily but 3000 calories of carb...

3000 calories of carb heavy diet makes me gain weight like crazy. This is, of course, controlling for water retention from carb heavy diet.

If it's all about calories in and calories out. How do you explain this phenomenon?

I was a weight loss consultant for over 7 years.

one constant fact that clients had was the inability to count. Its like weighing something on a postal scale is and reading a food label is the most difficult thing in the world.

Yeah doesn't apply to me. I used to track calories meticulously. I would weigh even a spoon of peanut butter I eat.

Answer to your riddle: You burned more Calories / exercised more when you ate the beef.

The carb heavy diet made you lazy and exert yourself less.

Last thought I guess is carb heavy diets will cause you to hold more water weight.

lol ok red. It's next to impossible to eat 4000 calories of red meat. Even a huge steak ends up being around 500-600 calories cooked.

You don't eat 4000 calories of beef daily. Basically what it comes down to is that, you're lying.

but how do you calculate net calories?

some foods take more energy than others in the conversion....the calorie scale we use for food is based on setting it on fire...biology is not the same.
