Egg whites are not a significant sourse of fat. They are a source of protein. The fat (including cholesterol) in the egg is in the yolk. Egg whites are one of the best sources of protein in that the body can digest them and use them very easily. Of course if you eat too much of anything, your body will store the excess as fat, but you would have to eat a lot of egg whites for that.

Everything is fattening if you eat too much of it.
