    Genie Will NOT Stay Skinny

    in The Sims 3 General Discussion
    He works out and gets skinny, but magically gains the weight back in less then 24 hours. He isn't stuffing himself and I haven't used any cheats. All my CC is from the Sims 3 store. And he is the only Sim that magically gains weight! Anybody have any answers?

      Have you tried sending him/her to the hospital for the expensive plastic surgery? I did mine and so far she seems to be maintaining her svelte figure.

      I know when I played a sim that I had created who was overweight, she had a hard time keeping the weight off through her whole life. If she did not exercise once every week or so she would start to look fluffy again.

      Lifetime Rewards Fast Metabolism works well for that

      My genie does this too hahaha. I don't think it's a Showtime error, though, because I had this problem back in Generations I think. I made a plump sim like Alhana and every now and then the sim would rest back to her pleasantly plump self. It was very odd.

      Now I generally tend to only free the slimmer genies if I plan on keeping them around for awhile. I know I know, I'm horrible! Genetic discrimination. >.< Shame on me!

      I bought the expensive plastic surgery for my genies and so far the only time one of them gained weight back was after she had a baby. I can totally empathize. She had to work out until fatigued for several days for it to come off but it did and so far it hasn't come back. I try to have them eat healthy just in case.

      I've had this happen even after expensive plastic surgery, although the muscle tone I had added remained. I just make her run a few hours on the treadmill every day.

      When I see my genie turn into a "fatty", what my niece likes to call her, it's treadmill time again. Happens with most plump sims and not just the genies. They seem to get fat again.

      This and Fast Metabolism should do the trick.

      When I get enough for Lifetime Rewards I will. And its not like I am bias against fat and skinny. Just my genie came with the top of military field wish and you need to be athletic to move up and notice one morning he woke up and was 3x's his size just over night.
