I understand and appreciate your sentiment, but in his case his obesity is a direct result of his gluttony and laziness. It is literally associated with his greed.

It's medically correct to call him obese, it's not bullying to use that term.

Like I say, my default position for big people is to treat them with kindess and respect, but in a case like his when it's clear who the person is beased on the behaviours then I am happy to talk about his weight for sure.
