I'm on a liquid diet and have a question about calories.  When I make fresh beef broth, am I getting the same number of calories from the beef as I would if I ate the beef?

No.

According to FitDay, an ounce of beef steak, cooked, has 71.4 calories, 38.4 of them from fat, and 7.7 grams of protein. An ounce of beef broth has 2.0 calories and 0.32 grams of protein.
