I think that it tends to vary depending on the individual. For instance, I define fat as having a visible muffin top... A muffin top is when the fat hangs over the jeans like a mushroom... or muffin! I do not consider a little fat on the stomach as fat... everyone has a bit of belly unless you are super fit or anorexic.

You all misunderstood me. I understand that even skinny people can have muffin tops, but what I mean by muffin tops, i mean EXTREMELY OBVIOUS. Like you have grab a handful of the fat protruding from your sides

Muffin top isn't the best way to define fat... even if you're tiny and you wear pants that are too tight in the wait, your excess skin will hang over the top.
For me, fat is defined by the person. If I see the person, and at first glance they look fat, but then I talk to them and they are really happy and confident, I don't think about it as much, and forget they're overweight at all. But if I see someone who's fat, and is quiet and not confident, I will see them as even bigger, and blame it on their body image. But that's just me.

a muffin top is when people don't wear the right sized jeans. even nice figured girls can create a muffin top with jeans two sizes too small.

I think it's fat when it's unhealthy looking or just unhealthy for the person. Overweight is more extreme than that.
Muffin tops aren't just fat people, girls have fat on their hips and if their hipsters are too small they'll have one also.

Some people do not realize that there is a big difference between being fat and having fat on you.

You answered your own question. It varies.
