I'm just curious, is his wife fat? Did she get fat after having the kid? She might be trying to bring him down to her level because she is upset about her own weight gain, and although she doesn't want to do anything to improve herself, could be hellbent on bringing your brother down to her level so he can't run off with some skinny shitlady mistress. It's a shitty way to conduct a marriage, but it happens.
The best thing would probably be to do as others have suggested and speak to your brother alone. I almost never say this, but use his kid as the pawn. Remind your brother that he needs to be there for your niece/nephew, that if he wants to be around to watch his child and then his grandchildren grow up, he needs to stay fit and healthy. If you say the rest of your family are obeasts, maybe remind him of what it was like growing up with obese parent(s) who didn't want to play with you, couldn't keep up with you, always said no to you, etc. Show him the scientific proof that fat = bad. Don't shitlord directly to start, let the evidence do the talking.
If all else fails, then shitlord the fuck outta him.
