There are a couple of the female frames that I stay well away from because they seem to gain weight very quickly. I noticed that the last option on the list didn't gain weight/change size as fast. So now I choose that one as a base and stretch it out or add more shape and curves.
It frustrates me more with the curvier Sims. I want them to be plus size but at the size I create them. I don't want them to keep changing, especially after I finish that household. I have a few that I've left as plus size, who look great as they are and have fashion choices that compliment them. I see them later and they look totally different. Some go to the very maximum size and some look totally ripped, which doesn't match their personality or their clothing selection. I keep going back and editing them again.
Then there's exercising. Anyone knows that sit ups and press ups and bike riding IRL make a big difference to muscle gain and weight loss. But they have no effect on my Sims. In fact bike riding causes mine to gain weight inexplicably.
@SqueamishNerdIn that case mine must have a bug, if it's working like that for your game. I have actually wondered for a while if it was by design or not. It was definitely weight that my Sim gained on her bike, and a lot of it. Even her face showed it and in CAS I could see it as I took a little of it off with the sliders because of the amount of weight, it changed her appearance too much.
I'm going to keep an eye on this one and see if it might be a bug. I thought it was tied to the bikes but I wasn't sure, it may be the body type. It's one for me to add to my bug watchlist.
Edit: I've just checked in CAS and it's the 5th and 6th on the female frames that I've stopped using because they go to maximum size quickly. The Sim who gained weight on the bike had one of those body types.🙄
