If calories are the same, does eating fruit have same results as McDonald's bu
On my current diet quite a lot of my caloric intake is coming from fruit, 500 calories. I'm only curious, if I were to eat the same amount of calories but the food is something like a cheeseburger from McDonald's, would both choices be essentially the same or would they be different in terms of calories consumed and effects on weight loss?
Meaning, if someone were trying to lose weight, would it matter where the calories came from? Would weight loss be more efficient from eating fruit here instead of a burger? Or is it irrelevant? Of course there's the long-term effects of poor eating choices; that cheeseburger is way way worse than those fruit. But is healthy food about the same as unhealthy food the short term source of that calories?
