Fat is metabolised to turn ADP into ATP which is used by the body in all sorts of thing and the byproduct of it is CO2 and water. Fat is a "store of energy" for this reason... but being strict; yes, this process produces energy, CO2 and water which is then expelled.
Interestingly, people also don't really know much about how plants "eat". Plants don't "eat" the sun energy; they use this energy to produce sugar that is then processed by the mitochondria just like we do. So efficient and beautiful!
