The Sims 3 Question

[EQandcivfanatic]

Haven't had much luck with officiall outlets (since I hate EA nowadays), but I can't figure out how to make a fatty lose weight. She's gained about 5 Atheletic skill points from exercise but hasn't grown any less of a blimp. Also, everyne int he neighborhood keeps getting fatter. Any ideas here?

dont let her eat anything. delete the fridge. it works wonders on Ethiopians.

You could use the gym? I'm sure I noticed one about the town

and tycoonist's idea works too, or just eat salads.

oh wait, I just re-read your point. I'm guessing it's just down to what's being eaten. Try the basics, eat fruit and salads and only when the hungry bar gets down to the very bottom.

I thought the metabolism trait woudl help, but it doesn't seem to do much.

 

[tycoonist]

another plus to not letting her eat anything is that she will die. then you won't have to play the game anymore!

It might just be a glitch in your current game, have you tried making a new game and seeing if it still happens?

What kind of exercise? weight lifting builds muscle, running loses weight. Muscle - weedi and fat - skinny, It's the same was when making a sim they have 2 sliders that work independent of each other.

Mcdonald's opened up in town and is sprinkling crack on the Big Macs.
