We gain fat by taking in more calories than our body can get rid of. The same goes for losing weight. We lose weight by consuming fewer calories than our body burns. One pound of body fat is equal to 3500 calories. This is the basis behind any weight loss program. As you know food contains calories. The reason eating too much food leads to weight gain is because you are consuming more calories than your body is able to burn.
