Obese woman needing to eat right (5)
I believe the answer is:
lardy
'obese' is the definition.
(lardy can informally mean fat)
'woman needing to eat right' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'right' could be 'ar' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'ar' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for lardy that I've seen is " Like some cakes".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
