How long does it take for the body to turn an excess of carbs or calories into fat?

Also, how long for fat to be used when there is a deficit of calories or carbs or whatever?

Regards,

Mike

Customer helplines that use recorded menus that promise to put me through to the right person but never do - and being ill. Oh, and did I mention customer helplines :)

I heard about a guy who was on course once when the lecturer said that there is no such things as a stupid question.

A guy at the back of the room put up his hand and asked "Are these my trousers?"

The room fell about.


What was behind my question is that there does seem to be a delay between having a bad eating day and the weight appearing at my morning weigh. Sometimes.

Is this common? Uncommon?

Thanks,

Mike
