If she didn't want to be called fat, she should eat less.

Being fat is not always due to someone being over indulgent with food...it could be caused by medication or an inability to exercise due to an injury etc.
I would refer to someone as the 'larger lady' if there was no other way to distinguish her to the other.
It's called being 'tactful' and respectful.
