Gravity is the force that givers us weight. So yes bigger people are heavier due to gravity. Similarly we are more attracted to bigger people too! (by gravity only)
The acceleration from gravity is the same for all people. Fat people are heavier because they’re more massive – they have more protons, neutrons and electrons in them, so they feel a greater force from gravity than someone who is lighter. But the acceleration from gravity is the same – Galileo proved this when he dropped a big and a small cannonball from the Leaning Tower of Pisa and they landed at the same time (although some people think this experiment might not have happened, it still works and has been done by other people). Astronauts have done the same experiment with a feather and a hammer on the moon.
