Sims getting too fat or too muscular in City Living?

Noticed how much a problem it is in game, when I have my sim lingering a lot in certain spots that have food stall.

Or even when you're just in the apartment, but can still see below the sims walking around since they're usually watching street performs, busking for tips with a violine or guitar, playing basket ball or their favorite past time eating. A LOT.

I don't mind Sims hanging about the food stalls and eating, but they tend to order at least 2 to 3 times eating. Eat, converse for a bit, eat some more and then leave and then possibly come back again to eat again. One of my sims in my rotation I wasn't playing went from this.

She THICC.

Usually I end up switching households or either inviting said sim out to the gym for some work out, but same problem being there for about two sim hours or so. Some sims linger here for too long as they're usually beefing up a bit too hard too quickly.

Pierce from the Delgato family got SWOL in no time he was pretty skinny to average lookin before. (He looks pretty good tbqh).

Ironically he's one of the gym trainers there now ha ha. Though noticed other sims beefing up a lot as well.

Is this happening to anyone else? I feel like sims are getting to chubby or too muscular too fast. I don't mind it happening gradually, but usually by the next day or two it's more than obvious with them. Feel like this should be tweaked a bit.

    My sims don't even go out, and end up like that if I don't play them for a couple of sim days.
    I had a curvy girl who now looks more like a body builder, meanwhile her bf went from average to being build like a block, he's turned into a brick, totally rectangular. She must workout, and he sits watching her, eating snacks.
  • while we await Maxis-made tweaks to this, my mod recommendations to combat this would be two: Fitness Controls by roBurky & No Skilling for Inactive Sims by Neia. both on MTS for those intrigued.

    Yeeeep, had a lot of sims body weights and looks change drastically. Usually more of a problem in San Mynshuno with sims eating back and forth at stalls. They just STAY hungry. Kinda wish all the stalls had a option for drinks, since I don't think they have those calories like the food does. Most sims look like they need to be on the next show for the fattest losers. :|

    Thanks, I'll definitely check those out. Need a temporary fix for sure.
  • My two Sims eat at the same time and generally do working out almost at the same time. They're very active and I do watch what they eat. One stays thin as a rail and the other either ends up chunky or on his way to becoming a body builder. It's super strange....and annoying...usually if they get too unfixable either by my having them eat nothing but salad or jogging I send them to the cas cheat code thing and fix the bodies myself.
