This actually isn't fully true, we don't digest all kinds calories equally. Generally speaking, yes, the most important factor in body weight is the total amount of calories consumed. Whether they are proteins, fats, complex carbs, or simple carbs, and when you consume them during the day, effects how much of that energy actually gets stored in the body.

- Spivak 6y agoThe question isn’t whether the effect exists. It would be incredibly surprising to discover that our bodies absorb literally every single food exactly the same. The question is whether the effect is large enough to actually matter. And maybe it does, maybe there is a magic diet that allows you to eat well above your TDEE without gaining weight but nobody has found it yet.
