That depends on whether you mean stored body fat, or fat consumed through diet.

Fat consumption can actually be quite good for you and be a good part of a balanced diet. The key is to eating fats that are rich in fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) and Omega-3 fatty acids. The vitamins are essential to the daily functions of your body, and Omega-3 fatty acids have been proven to improve memory and brain function, and are also believed to promote joint health by helping your body repair soft tissue.

Stored body fat is a major problem, especially when it is stored around your midsection. It impairs the proper functioning of your organs, to say nothing of the typical dietary habits that accompany having excessive amounts of stored body fat.
