The correct term, I believe, is "Calorically challenged."

You've got to be kidding! I am SO not politically correct!

"Circumfrentially challenged" is preferred.

my aspiring ex insists on using "unhealthy". i checked the web site of the american society for the overweight and it says that it's wrong to use the word fat. i told my physician that i am trying to reduce the # of calorically-challenged cells around my belly, and he insisted on using the politically incorrect term "obese"

Not the word but probably in the way it's used. Like "Hey, look at that fat tub of lard!" Meaning a fat person. Not the pig fat.

yes,it can cause hurt to some people.

Maybe to some people. Definitely not all. I think it depends on the usage. Most people wouldn't find "fat" being used as a generic insult, to be politically correct.
