When a person uses pictures of themselves for dating profiles which are extremely dated or where they look way less fat than they currently are. Similar to a catfish but it’s pictures of the person albeit very very very dated or inaccurate.
Damn Brittany was 50+lbs heavier than those 2 year old pictures she had on her Bumble profile. She’s a total Fatfish.

Similar to catfish. When a person who works at a place that wears a uniform goes into the back of the establishment and you expect them to come right back out. Instead a fat person in the same uniform emerges.
I expected Steph to come right back out from the kitchen shaking that sexy ass. Instead…I got Fatfished by Large Marge who lumbered out in the same uniform and made me question my attraction to women at all.

A fatfish is a name applied to a person or animal, that is not necessarily overweight, who is being greedy, selfish, snobbish, or a hater.
Ben was certainly being a fatfish on his birthday; he wouldn't share his birthday cake, and spent the afternoon talking smack about his brother.

Unlike catfished, where people are not as attractive as their pictures show their face to be ….fatfished is where they are at least 40 pounds more than their pictures inferred.
I met her for sushi. I didn’t know she was the heavyset woman sitting at the bar; so I waited and waited until she texted me that she was there. This woman was 300 pounds more than the woman I thought I was going on a date with —-now that I look back; I should’ve asked for body pictures on match.com. Now all my friends tell jokes about the time I was fatfished and spent $400 on sushi to feed the orca.
