"Corpulent" is a synonym for obese because both terms describe a state of having significant excess body fat. While "corpulent" is a formal, descriptive term meaning "full-bodied" or very overweight, "obese" is the medical term for that same condition, often defined by a body mass index (BMI) over 30 kg/m^2.
