Eating more calories than your body needs results in fat. A calorie is energy and when the body has to much energy or calories than they are stored as fat.

Carbs are the easiest thing for your body to use to create fat stores.Carbs are almost pure energy for the body and the energy from carbs is normally immediatly stored if not used.
Rarley will you gain fat from protein sources since protein is used to repair damaged tissue. Only if an excessive amount of protein is eatin will that happen.
Fats themselves are not bad and dont always go towards the fat stores in the body. The body needs all kinds of fats to perform all finds of bodily functions.

Another way is when the body gets to few calories and lowers the metabolism to accommidate this. If this persists than the starvation response is activated and the body will store all the food it can as fat in order to prepare itself for lower and lower amounts of calories.
