How about this - do you have an internal door into a room which "Hoover" can be excluded from, and it doesn't cause any issues? If so, you could install an electromagnetic door that Dainty could wear the "key" magnet for, so she could go in and out. If you don't have a separate room, maybe build a wooden box with a perspex window, and put the electromagnetic door in that. Example door in the link below:

It's like any other pet door but with an electronic/magnetic latch. The latch is magnetically operated like a key. A magnet gets close enough to the latch and it unlocks the pet door allowing the approved animals through. Here's an example of one.
It sounds like you just have one food bowl currently, is that correct? You may be able to remedy some of the problem by dividing their food amongst multiple bowls or food-dispensing toys (even better than bowls, especially for weight-loss!) in different areas of the house.
Otherwise, you may be able to get away with feeding Skinny inside a large rubbermaid-type container with either an opening cut just big enough for Skinny to enter but not big enough for Fatty to sneak in, or with a magnet activated cat door like this (just only put the magnet collar on Skinny).
Well there are a few products out there. I do suggest reading reviews on amazon to decide which is best for your cat (some make noise, others are more flimsy, only include one 'key' etc)
