I saw that on Discovery Health, Celery does take more energy for the body to convert the carbs over than it provides so it is considered like a negative food. One celery stock is 1 carb or 4 calories.

Technically, yes. However, the difference is so small that you'd have to eat something like 15 pounds of celery to burn more than 50 calories.
