    That is all going to depend on you. It takes up to 72 hours to fully digest the food you eat, so your body doesn't know if you ate 1200 calories one day and 3200 the next... it just knows at some point it got 4400 calories that it has to process.

    You gain/lose fat over time, so it's all just a matter of averages.
