Remember I was supposed to find out why our Sims are fat?
or Why they get fat to fast, well I did. first, they maxed out the weight sliders.
Our Sims are fat for more than one reason. plus all sizes get thrown in a mixer in CAS. So I think they do add them by percentages, like more of one or another as far as size. but I also feel that they have increased the number of fat sims in CAS greatly. So they also send them down to us as townies in that same number.
Now I get fewer elders because I use to always delete them so the game learned from me that I did not want them and I would check often.
So one thing I think would help is to delete your oversized townies.
Now if we notice a townies job is to basically eat. go to our restaurants and go to the city and eat eat eat and walk to one end to the other. you can see this in San Myshuno more than any other city, they are also there to socialize with us and other townies. and to buy from our shops.
For the first time, I see lots of kid townies eating and eating.

But here is the kicker, Our sims the ones we play, are also townies. It's like their second job that they do not talk about.
So you put them to bed and you log out. but nope they do not stay in bed, they go about the town being townies and eating and eating they go to bakeries, by food for their inventory and eat it. they go to the city and eat from stalls, we see them at restaurants eating, but we are not playing them.
Now not all our sims have eating jobs, some are the workers as well. This may be why some do not gain as much or as fast as the eaters, the game do not care who does what as long as there are sims about town.
Another kicker is that townies can change their identity and change back to themselves when you log in, Reason why they sometimes are not at home. where you left them. or just have been about the town having fun eating and eating making friend and enemies and fighting, flirting and drinking, go to parties whatever. also when they get home we think they are hungry because they are in red, this I think is a return home malfunction. also tired. and can not go to work but should be fully rested and teens as well.
If you stay in San Myshuno long enough you will see them and the workers change shifts and new ones come . also some townies will leave and be refreshed into other townies. I saw a young adult change to a teen, with the same body and big belly.
So they gave us the fitness pack and diet cake, and raise the percentage of extremely overweight sims, thinking we would love to reduce them whereby giving us more to do. We would be so busy trying to keep the extra weight off we would not have time to get bored.
Well if our Sims have eating Jobs as townies that should be empty calories and not count at all to their weight but it does. normally and they get bigger and bigger,
Why did they do this and not remove the calories from our sims total, well maybe it would cost man hours and well they would have to pay programmers. so, maybe its why they gave us the fitness pack, only some do not have that pack or kitchen stuff for the diet ice cream. oh well lol.
