What is the relationship of calorie consumption and calories burned?
The relationship of calorie consumption and calories burned is the following (kind of in depth): The calories you eat are obviously the calories you consume, right? Right.

If you consume 1,000 calories, but your body burns (oh say, 2,000 calories for sake of arguement) then you will easily not be affected weight-wise by the food. However, if you consume (eat) 5,000 calories, then you're going to put on a few pounds. 3,500 calories = a pound.
