If you Binge - do it all in one day - Truth?

A person at the office stated that you are better off to eat thousands of calories binge eating in a single day as your body can only digest so much. The excess will just get excreted, including the calories.

The opposite is to eat the same over many days and gain weight.

First I had ever heard this - thoughts?

    Your body will take every calorie from that food, use what it needs for the time being, and then will store away the rest.
