Fat stored in the body is just a form of stored energy. This means that if you do not eat, your body uses the energy stored in the form of fat. When you do not eat anything, it is fasting. With this, you can keep yourself healthy and also balance the increasing weight.

Due to keeping fast, whenever the body needs energy, the fat present in the body gets used in the energy requirement. In this way, the excess fat present in the body gets eliminated or the excess fat is not stored in the body. When you do this regularly, it does not make a lot of fat in the body. This is the reason why obesity can be reduced due to intermittent fasting.
