And? That doesn't contradict anything I said. Yes, insulin will cause you to store carbs as fat in the event of an excess of blood sugar (although, it does a LOT more than just that... Insulin is an incredible hormone and we still don't know everything about it. It's a storage hormone and an action hormone. It's also incredibly important in muscle building).
But read what I said again. Yes, insulin will spike. It will store the energy as fat. But, when the calories remain low for the rest of the day, insulin remains low and the fat that got stored will be burned off to cover energy needs.
There are many studies with 24 hour calorimeters that show this to be true.
