It is very kind of you to worry about your friend like this. But let me give you advice from someone who was really fat all through school.
Don't say anything to her. Odds are, she knows. Unless she is in serious denial (which is possible, but very rare), she is very aware of the fact that she is fat, and she is probably bothered by it, too. She probably hears it from other girls talking behind her back, and from random strangers making comments. I always did. The last thing she wants is to hear it from her friend.
Let her bring it up. She might, and she might never. If she does, be supportive and ready to help her (it sounds like you already are). Volunteer to maybe make up a secret signal for when she starts to eat too much so that you can remind her to stop eating without every else at the table noticing.
If you are really into helped her, here is one thing that you might be able to do without hurting her feelings. Tell her you're concerned about your OWN appearance, and that you really need a exercise partner. Ask her if she'd like to start walking (in the park, around the neighborhood) several times a week with you. This may open up communication about body image so that you can talk directly about how much she eats.
Let me know if I can be of anymore help!
