In the US, not that I know of. But I suspect morbidly obese might be grounds for denial on general health principles.
Really heavy folks are unlikely to be able to hold a medical as they age though...too many other health problems are likely to come up. Better get on a program while you're young if possible...it gets harder after 30, and a lot harder after 40.

At my last FAA medical, my doc said that NEW WEIGHT STANDARDS are coming and that exceeding those standards will be ground for AUTOMATIC DENIAL of your medical certificate.
Don't know for sure but suspect it's a fallout for the "Over 65" debate. Thanks again old guys ...
