So what the hell are the benefits of being in The Zone anyway?

I think I will adopt my own benefit system and change them accordingly with SimEnhancer because I do see the difference, especially in winter when energy and hygiene drops incredibly fast.
USDA Grade A BS. Energy decay in winter is the same as it is in every other season except Summer, for adults, -255 to -205 per day (depending on Activeness). Summer decay rate is -220 to -180 for adults. Hygiene is -300 to -100 (depending on Neatness) regardless of season. Oddly, these values mean that slobby sims are the ones that bathe a lot and neat sims are the ones that don't. Very counter-intuitive.
Strange. I see a massive energy/hygiene decay when they are outside in bad weather/snow.

Not so strange - the two statements are not mutually exclusive. All things being equal (e.g. your sim is inside reading a book) energy/hygiene decay will be roughly the same in winter as in any other season. If you dump your sim outside in the snow, you add a new consideration and all things are not equal.

Good thing I have noeatcrap; otherwise my sims would all be porking out over salad!
My sims are still getting fat with noeatcrap, even the non-lazy ones. Although I suppose it depends where you draw the lazy line. The two I've had pork out were at 5 active.
Emma:
I have lots of fat townies. :( I purposely make some of my playable sims fat but IMO it is far too easy to get them fit. Exceptions to this of course, are my Grilled Cheese porkers.
Zazazu:
One fatty I have is a secondary grilled cheese (though he acts like a primary). Fine for him to get fat off of them. He was supposed to own Say Cheese!, which I built after rolling for the mayor to make a restaurant with him in mind, but then I rolled for him to fulfill his LTW, Be a Cult Leader. This works, too. Perhaps one of his cultists will run the restaurant.
The other one is a romance sim, the one who runs a full-service massage parlor and has twins with her sister's husband (who lives upstairs with the sister and their child + one on the way), not that any of the involved know the true parentage of the twins. Thank you, SimPE and Risky Woohoo.
None of my townies are fat yet. Of course, I haven't played any restaurants but once or twice.
