When does a snake loose its fatness

Hi my snake was fed on sunday i think or saturday and he still has not a big buldge but still a little buldge where the rat obviouly is how long should it be till that goes away, or is that just the snake being a snake. also if it is a lil fat like that, should i feed him this sunday?

Yeh heat gets their digestive enzymes going and helps to break down the food.
