Ah yes, when I think of Starfleet, I think of Iwo Jima.
Yeah, there's no open statement but I think they let her get more obese just to make a point, even though Starfleet requires (or used to) people to be in shape for the job.
The literal point of the Starfleet pajamas is to show off how in shape everyone in the future is. I think Jonathan Frakes even said in an interview in the late 80s/early 90s how those uniforms serve as motivation to stay in shape because you can see everything. And iirc it was a mandate from Roddenberry himself.
