Noun: "The state of having overeaten." I can see at least one Google Books result, one of those silly book of rare words, that misuses the adjective to refer to being stuffed after a meal (it's actually a botanical term), so the creating IP may have picked that up, and also mistakenly called it a noun...

I can cite an adjective meaning having overeaten, as well as one meaning being completely full, but as for a noun, I could only find one use:
