* BigEater: "I'll have a double pizza burger, chili fries, and a vanilla milkshake". Rosemary is an interesting case. She’s shown to be quite gluttonous throughout the film, as seen on one occasion when Hal isn’t looking, she quickly guzzles down the huge shake they were sharing out of desperation. She not only clearly enjoys stuffing her face with everything she can hold, but she just seems to ''need'' more food to fill up properly thanks to her size at this point. That said, while she is a huge glutton, she isn’t ''greedy''. She still gives away free food to those in need and works extensively with children in need as well.
Added DiffLines:
* FatAndProud: Initially she’s just fat and accepting of it in a deadpan way, figuring she’s never going to be skinny so why bother even trying to eat healthy or work out (and her appetite has grown to such huge proportions anyway). Her relationship with Hal, where she believes he sees her as beautiful both because of and in spite of her obesity, sees her grow more confident in her appearance, wearing bikinis and crop tops that show off her body more.
* FatComicRelief: Though she is the main romantic lead, the film gets a lot of fat jokes out of her, with the primary source of comedy being the irony that Hal cannot tell why the world around her reacts the way it does, such as why her lingerie is so massive, and why everybody tries to clear out of her way when she is about to do a cannonball at the pool. The movie goes cartoonishly over the top with this, however, since while 300 lbs is certainly large, the way the world reacts to her presence suggests she’s over twice that given the damage she inflicts on things in her wake.

In reality, she is rude, condescending, unfriendly to even sick children, and a money-grubbing flake. This causes her to appear as an ugly crone to the "brainwashed" Hal.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Jill initially rejects Hal's overtures, stating that she finds him shallow. However, after Hal starts dating unattractive girls and later starts dating the obese Rosemary, Jill is shocked and takes an interest in Hal, stating that she has concluded that he must be pathologically unshallow... However, this is still a mean and superficial comment about Rosemary.

Jill is an exotic, sensual woman, a little more rude and cold. Downplayed, though, because Jill is shown later in the movie to be a nice and pleasant person who simply objected to Hal's lechery and overt come-ons, and she makes a move on Hal after seeing what she believed was CharacterDevelopment on his part in dating such a big girl (at this point, Hal is still hypnotized into seeing Rosemary as being thin). That said, the fact that Jill starts flirting with Hal while he's still dating Rosemary is a little... problematic. Anyway, Hal lets her down gently.
