Actually, strictly speaking it is. Or can be, at least. Modern societal standards dictate that thin is beautiful. If one were to intentionally maintain obesity as a way of subverting that concept, one would be a fat non-comformist.

Note that taking heroin could also be considered a non-comformist act. Non-conformist does not equate to good.
