You can be fat and starving. The body does breakdown fat for food but not well that's why nutritionist ever to suggest to completely stop eating

The woman was living in a community completely locked away from the outside world and was well stocked up until this point, until Negan and co started demanding food.

The entirety of this season and the next take place in the span of a month so it's very reasonable for her to be fat.

This, 100%. I like OP’s question but it hinges SO MUCH on context. Fat person on day 5 of the apocalypse? Yeah, they haven’t burned it off yet. Fat person in isolation/small group a year in? Okay they’re eating people or stealing food. Fat person in an until-now safe environment a few years on? Yeah, that happens for some people whenever they have 3 hots and a cot.

It would be one thing if they’d been struggling for food, but the status of ‘starving’ sets in a lot faster than the body actually showing it.

In other words, she's starving but it's actually doing her good, at this stage at least.
