Having short comings of your own does not invalidate the short comings of others.

Ever met a chick that wasn't? Just listen to them - even the ultra-thin ones. "I'm fat". Not.
Trust me - if she's put on weight, she knows it. Not your concern.
Indeed, but you have to be subtle about it. You're not dealing with a child here, so keep that in mind.
"'Go on and fetch muh brother a beer 'fore ah come over there 'n cut some bacon off your back."
"You look just like Danny Devito in that blouse."
"Nah, you don't need to bring a coat. You people are always sweating."
"Guess who I saw today? My old friend Duane from high school. You know Duane, big 'ol beefy dude, grew up on a farm. Looks a lot like you with short hair."
Make beeping noises when she backs up.
I think you should tell her! Make sure to use the term "fattie". It's very motivational. 
Please do, and make sure you have a camera rolling so someone can youtube the aftermath.
Funny that you should ask...
Saturday morning my 3 year old son and I were playing with his army men and having a good ole time (well - he was anyway) when out of the clear blue sky he asked me, "Is mommy fat". With out going into a lot of detail that might get me into trouble I asked him, "Do you think she's fat?". He replied in the affirmative in a manner that implied he wasn't really sure. So I told him what I thought.
Then just to be sure he'd never get in trouble I asked him, "If mommy asked you if you thought she was fat or what she was wearing made her look fat what would you say?". You had to be there. You could see the wheels turning in his little head and then finally, hesitantly he said, "...uhhhhh. NO!". "Good Answer, SON. Don't ever forget that. It'll stand you in good stead the rest of your life".
Now if a 3 year old gets it one wonders how any man who's spent more than a little time with any human American female could even ask if he should tell his SIL that she's porkin' up.

And get her one of those signs that says: "Caution: Wide Load" to wear.
