Do you believe the human body is picky about where its fat came from? Fat from carbs and fat from fat is still fat.
You do not need to starve yourself for your body to use energy stored in fat cells. You need your body to use up its immediate stores of glycogen, after which it will use fat or protein. With a caloric target set for a lower goal weight, the carbs you eat will be used up quicker, so your body will then go for the fat (and possibly protein). You therefore can eat carbs, burn fat, and lose weight.
It should not be understated that the best way to speed this process is with light cardio and resistance training, as it speeds up glycogen use and builds muscle, which increases rate of energy use. At no time do you need to remove carbs for this to work.
