Re: IWB holster for fat guys?
I don't know if many people are fans but I love my Desantis Tuck This II IWB holster. I carry my G27 in it and love it.
OP, they do have it available for the G20.

Re: IWB holster for fat guys?
I unfortunately have no idea what brand it is, something generic I ordered online, but I have an IWB holster that fits small semi-auto pistols. (Bersa, PPK, Makarov) I carry my Makarov in it frequently.
What makes it work is that it sits very low with the top of the clip right at the top of the holster. Only the very end of the grip sticks out and I can carry it comfortably. Others like the blackhawk just tend to have clips that sit really low on the holster making the gun sit high and not particularly secure. I got lucky when I stumbled on the generic online. It's definitely a basic kind of piece--even questionable in quality, but it works perfectly for me.
I don't know how comfortable I'd be carrying a Glock in it though. It's a soft holster and I just don't trust Glock triggers without a serious trigger guard built into the holster.
I'm also a fan of ankle carry. I know it's not everyone's favorite method but sometimes the wardrobe isn't friendly to other methods. A gun on my ankle is better than no gun at all.

Atomic Dog Holsters should be able to make a custom solution.
My other recommendation for IWB is a CompTac CTAC.Jeff Cooper was a huge supporter of gun games, when he was winning them at least...
