Speaking as a woman who used to be much larger than Becky is now, and is now much smaller - nope, not really. At least, not as a blanket statement. Most people of reasonable intelligence can tell someone being sincere from someone being a passive aggressive twatwaffle. The kinds of comments Caroline and Ashleigh are prone to making fall in that 2nd category.
Deana or Sara, who have a professional interest in maintaining their body weight are going to notice if they gain a pound or two, and shouldn't be forbidden from verbalizing that realization just because there's a fat chick in the room. I saw countless friends over the years who'd been skinny all their lives suddenly have to deal with gaining weight because they'd had a baby or gone off the college to live on french fries and beer, and when they complained about getting fat, I didn't internalize it and take it as some passive aggressive attack on me. I felt sorry for them and gave them advice, because seriously, you want diet advice, talk to a fat chick, not someone with the metabolism of a shark.
The fact that hearing Deana or Sara say they feel fat or that they're getting fat (very likely, they've both gained weight, since they're in a sedentary environment with a lot of bad food and alcohol) is enough to set Becky off, means she absolutely is not comfortable -she's oversensitive about it. Just like her VT where she says people make comments and she doesn't care - obviously she does care, or she wouldn't be putting people up for eviction because they dared mention their own weight gain in her presence.
