No. obese people have a lot more fat on them than people that are working out. So if you're working out and you're fit then you are going to lose more and look a lot skinnier than the obese person... and the obese person needs to work a lot harder then the person who's fit because they have a lot more to burn off.

Alternative answer:

By the fact that an obese person weighs more, and has a larger body to support, it is a logical assumption to make that an obese person 'needs' more calories to maintain the same weight.

However, the amount of muscle mass a person has will also dictate how much energy is used, and this may vary substantially between obese people.

Sort of, but if you're just talking weight, no. The less you weigh, the slower you are to burn a good amount of calories.
