Its much to do with The BMI (Body Mass index) and how much of the body is Fat/Muscle/Water.

thick and stocky is when they are healthy and built, not necessarily fat..they have a good body, just meat on their bones. fat and obese is unhealthy and basically huge.

Fat/Obese people are big because of fat. Thick/Stocky people are big because of muscle.

Thick and stocky are euphemisms, just like saying a fat person is "husky" or "big-boned". Wouldn't you rather be called stocky than fat?
