Stop my Kids from getting Fat? Ok, so every single kid in my sims family is tubby. I have looked for ways to keep them in shape, but all of the excersise equipment is for adults. Is there a toy/game for the kids to play that gives them excersise?
I think if they play tag, or cops and robbers instead of watching tv and playing on the computer they won't get fat as often. They don't actually get body points for playing though so a fat kid won't become fit just by playing. Ruth
Also, don't feed them if they're not really hungry, and if they are hungry try cereal and salad instead of pancakes and spaghetti. If you download Pescados noeatcrap hack they'll stop eating when they're full, even if their plates still have food on them, but only if they're active rather than lazy sims. That should help as well.
Well I have heard, can't remember from where, that the "calories" from the whole meal are attributed to them once they begin to eat. So even if they stop half way through the meal the games reacts as though they ate the whole thing. So would the hack prevent that? I admit the info that I heard could be wrong now because we are a couple of expansions down the road from where I heard it. Ruth
As far as I know, that was never true. There aren't really "calories", it's a matter of "overfilling" the hunger bar. If you watch, you'll see that the hunger bar fills gradually as they eat, not all at once. When it hits the top, the fitness level starts very gradually declining. So regardless of what they're eating, if they stop when the hunger bar is full, the fitness will never decline.
