"Está tan gordo" or "Es tan gordo"
An example I've read says, "Está tan gordo" but this doesn't seem correct to me.

They pretty much say the same thing. But you would say Está tan gordo for instance if you knew the person before and he or she got a lot more fat than you knew he or she to be. You would say Es tan gordo more as a matter of fact.
Hope it helps

"Está tan gordo.... que no puede caminar"
"Es tan gordo como él"
"Está gordo como un barril"
"Es gordo como Pepito"
"Es tan gordo que nunca fue delgado"
I think that "está" gives a sense of surprise, when "es" means that he has always been fat, so, with no surprise.

Esta tan gordo is correct. Is like saying is "that so fat"
