Am I Fat?

I just want to know if I look fat to any of you out there? I have been increasing my food intake to medium rats once a week and want to make sure that I'm not loosing my girlish figure (even though I might be a boy). If I need to start the Jenny Craig diet thing, don't be afraid to say so...

Looks like a good healthy sausage to me!
When a snake is obese you will start to see skin between the scales

Like when you feed it and the rat is working it way down the neck of the snake.

Thanks for the help!

Well thats a bit of an extreme example but that's the basic idea.
I once heard it described that if you visualized a cornsnake, cross section, should look like a loaf of bread.
