12 is the smallest number there.

Now, post-metabolization, there might be a different retention of weight, but is that what the question was asking?

Sorry, I mean 100 > 108.

A gram of fat, canonically, has 9 calories. A gram of either protein or digestible carbohydrate has 4. So 12 grams of fat = 108 while 25 grams of protein = 100. As I said, I did the math in my head, got the write numbers, and thought that 108 was the lowest of them.

I am perhaps being too oblique.

If you ingest 12 g of fat, you are 12 g heavier (before metabolization, excretion, and retention). If you ingest 25 g of protein, you are 25 g heavier. 25 > 12. So ingesting 12 g of fat makes you less heavy at the time of ingestion.
