No. When I say she looks downright sick, I mean it... she looks like she is unhealthy. If C was obese and looked unhealthy, I most definitely would have said that as well... I am not a fan of unhealthy, obese figures, either. But C appears to be quite robust and healthy, and nowhere near "sick," at least in the physical sense that A looks. So is that really a double standard? I'm sure someone will inform me soon enough.
