DO we absorb fats and grease through our skin?

I am 8 months post op and a question was brought to my attention, and im not sure if it is true or not, so thought id post and see what comments I get. Ive lost about 102lbs so far, but I work in a resturant cooking. I was told recently that we absorb the fat and grease around us through our skin, and I got worried. With me working around it alot, Im afraid it will slow my weight lose and maybe make me even gain some back. Now im not sure this is true, and thought Id post to see what I could find out. Thanks In advance....
