Many things: We all need body fat. It serves many good functions. But excess body implies more that you need for normal body functions, and can have many negative health effects. The excess fat can be stored in your fat cells or can be released form fat cells and burned for energy, if you are exercising and eating healthy foods in healthy portions. The fat cells themselves don't, however, disappear.
