blubbery
Soft and jiggly
Blubbery describes something resembling blubber—the thick layer of fat on whales and seals.
It usually refers to flesh that is soft, flabby, or jiggly: his blubbery midsection, blubbery lips.
The word carries unflattering connotations when applied to people, suggesting excess and lack of firmness.
