Even if you didn't eat more you still breathe out carbon dioxide.

yes but the carbon you breathe out comes from the food you eat

The carbon that we eat would've been released one way or the other, and is part of the carbon cycle.

The carbon we release by burning fossil fuels has been stored for a long long time and will not quickly be absorbed after release and will thus suddenly create a massive excess of carbon in the air.
