2. But if you ate it, you don't have it.
That's what the expression means. "You can't have your cake and eat it too" means that you can't both eat the cake and have (keep) the cake.

:D

7. Except for once your body rids itself of it.
Then it will be gone forever and hopefully replaced by some equally yummy calories.
