Fat is your body's way of storing energy for longer periods of time. If you were unable to eat anything for a long time, your body would be able to use the energy stored in fat to stay alive. Without fat, a person could only survive a couple days without food. Your body can also use body fat to suppliment your energy supplies if you are burning more calories than you consume.
