I have got used to speak Chinese for three years now.
and there is this Chinese expression that I can't find a match in English, its a character made of a body(rou), injure(yi), and a shell (bei). Pronouced as ni.
here is a dictionary entry for it.
adj. (Simp=腻, Pinyin=ni4) greasy, oily, tired, meticulous
v. (Simp=腻, Pinyin=ni4) be bored
but I don't feel this translation is correct for the feeling I want to express...
It's a feeling that when you eat too much of greasy food, you can't take it anymore, because you are NI.

... because you are surfeited.
A-H: n. Overindulgence in food or drink.
The result of such overindulgence; satiety or disgust.
cool...I just checked my random house...judging from the root of sur- = over- and -fait = to do,
can you also say, I am overdone?

Makes you sound like a steak that has been cooked too much.
crapulous - marked by overindulgence in food or drink; hence crapulousness, such a state
but this is probably too general a term :)

jheem was right, anton. Overdone is not an adjective that applies to humans--except maybe among cannibals, she said as a lame joke. Use it as a verb, regarding humans: we overdo things.
Surfeit can apply to anything that there has been too much of, not just food. To my knowledge, we don't have words (adjectives) that apply to a particular kind of food, greasy or otherwise--to describe how we feel after eating them, I mean. We can be overfull (I use 'stuffed' fairly often, having picked up its usage from a friend) of pie or fish, etc., or feel sick from eating too much greasy food; but I can't think of any words we use that would automatically let others know what kind of food we had eaten to make us feel that way.
sated--or satiated comes to mind
but in the venacular, "I'm stuffed!" --but it tend to apply to any over eating (like after thanksgiving dinner)
the sick feeling-- might well be 'upset stomach'-- does any one remember "That's one greasy meatball!" commercail? what words were used to describe what the actor was feeling and how to make him feel better..
--bloatted--is currently being use in one commercial.. the feeling ones body is distended and blown up with food and gas..
Then, when one is sated one might be said to be logy.
Less formally, one might say, "I'm coffeed (or whatever, verbing a noun in the process) out.
