If you eat a little bit of candy will you gain weight?

Answer 1

If you are that worried about gaining weight, for every candy bar you eat do like 40 sit ups or jog a mile or ride a bike. I don't think you'll gain weight from eating a little bit, but I don't know how fast your metabolism is. It's ok to treat yourself every now and then : )

Answer 2

The typical chocolate has about 150 calories per ounce, so a pound of it contains 150 x 16 = 2400 calories.

A pound (including a pound of fat) equals 454 grams. Each gram of fat holds 9 calories. So it takes 454 x 9 = 4,086 calories to gain a pound of fat. A pound of chocolate would give you 2400 / 4086 = about 0.6 of that. So a pound of chocolate corresponds to roughly 0.6 lb of fat on your body. You wouldn't gain the whole pound because part of the chocolate isn't digestible and your body isn't 100% efficient.

Of course you're not guaranteed to gain the weight -- it depends on your level of activity and what else you eat. If you cut 2400 calories of other foods out of your diet (which for most people is a WHOLE DAY worth of food), or if you burn off 2400 calories through exercise (ride a bike really fast for about 2-3 hours), you won't gain any weight at all.

Answer 3

It depends on the person. People's bodies react differently to different foods. One person might not gain any weight from eating fast food while another might gain a few pounds if they eat too much.

Answer 4

it depends on the calories,calories from fat,sugar etc. and you don't really gain weight because of one candy bar maybe if they're more than one....... alright?-alright :)
