Well can they? I don't remember them ever doing that before but a couple times I've played a Sim, I've noticed their body looks different after a couple days or so. That is happening with my current Sim and I'm having her excerize and everything, but nothing seems to work? Doing something wrong or does it just take time?

treadmill and jogging for weightloss and the workout machine for buildung muscles. also i heard that if your sim eats gourmet meals then they don gain that much weight because they have less calorira but i dont know if this is true

Yeah the weight thing used to bug me as my sims used to gain weight like crazy. But I appreciate the weight system now, as it’s prob one of the better thought out and executed features in the game lolDifferent meals have different calories just like irl, cakes and grand meals are the worst for weight gain in my experience, but things like grilled cheese are bad too. Another bad thing to do is eat past being full, this will pile on the pounds. I tend to try and keep my sims on a healthier diet to minimise an expanding waistline, unless the sim is proper into fitness. Yoga is the ultimate way of losing weight, with visible differences after every session. Running is the next best, either treadmill or jogging is fine, but you have to “push the limits” to get into fat burner mode, so takes longer lol Swimming does nothing, or very little.. If you are struggling you can also pick the athletic aspiration when creating a sim, as this gives you the high metabolism trait ;) Hope that helps

The title of this thread shook me a little. I mean, thinking of all the trouble simmers have with especially female Sims gaining weight just looking at a serving of garden salad.@wylmite1986 Sims could also gain and lose weight in Sims 3. In Sims 4, though, it's gone a little overboard and you really have to watch what your Sims eat and DRINK. Bar drinks contain tons of calories and will make your Sim gain weight rapidly. So, watch it if you have a bar in your Sim's home and they have the mixology skill. If they also are a Foodie, then put the bar behind a locked door or get rid of it altogether.

My sims gain weight like there is no tomorrow!! I have to starve them to stay slim!

If only directing myself to lose weight was as easy as in the Sims. ??Sims will never know what comfort eating is!

Yes they can. Another way they can gain weight that I haven't seen mentioned here yet is through pregnancy.

Hmm, you sure it's not just the normal gain at play? I've had females who did not gain weight during pregnancy. And with no traits to prevent it.

In the legacy im playing now, my female sims are all overweight. They inherit the same big waist... I had one of them exercise a lot and eat salads and she lost some weight but then i made a cake for a birthday party, she ate two pieces and she recovered some of those lost kg...

Yep positive its because of pregnancy. Especially if they have a lot of them. They tend to gain weight after each one after about one or two.
