Of course, you have to keep in mind the form those calories are coming in. Fats, though energy dense, are pretty much slow release. Fructose, on the other hand, is just nasty stuff that leads to a build-up of visceral fat. Both of them contribute to your calorie count, but they both affect your body in very different ways.

Dietary fat contributes to visceral fat as well, and at a greater degree than fructose. There's always some energy lost during DNL.
