You'll have to wait until I implement bulimia.
...and wouldnt anorexia be easier to implement? bulimia involved making them eat until stuffed, then enabling an optional vomit command when stuffed, then weightloss from a successful vomit rather than just noeat = thin solution?
I'd like to request the vomit + incontinence combo purge.
P.S. Sometimes easiest isn't best. ;)

Darn, so the only way to get a stick thin sim is through CAS? This is disappointing.
I agree. I wonder if this behavior is present in the vanilla game or introduced by AwesomeMod.

With exercise, a sim will lose fatness, but won't acquire thinness, because people who work out in real life don't turn into emaciated sticks, they merely lose fat. You'll have to wait until I implement bulimia.
This is something with which I must respectfully disagree. The difference between an "emaciated stick" and a regular person is simply the quantity of possessed body fat (and muscle, but that's handled separately in The Sims). If cardio exercise causes a decrease in body fat, it should cause a shift towards Thinness=1 regardless of where the sim is along the thinness/fatness spectrum.

Yeah, well, the single variable "Thinness" in TS3 handles a number of things, not all of which are purely fat-based. Otherwise, taking a sim to absolute MINIMUM thinness AND muscle would make them look entirely like a famine victim with protruding ribs and whatnot.

I must respectfully disagree with your respectful disagreement. A cardio workout by it's very nature encourages the growth of lean muscle, and as such someone who participates a lot in cardio exercise will eventually reach a plateau where weight loss stops. At this point, they may continue to burn fat, but it will be quickly replaced, with heavier, more dense muscle mass. I work in a leisure centre (gym/pool) and as such, know these things.
With regard to the OPs query - Perhaps the original restraints, even in CAS? We've all grown used to the slider hacks, I think. As a solution, the BodySculptor can be improved in a tuning XML very easily, have a look for the Mod Maker at MTS if you have no prior modding experience.

Look, I go with what AMUSES ME MORE, okay? Watching a sim just NOT EAT? Boring. Watching the Yarfing Pedobait brought back to TS3? FUNNY. Capiche?
xD Je comprende, monsieur. You implementing bulimia would actually make my day for various reasons including the above stated. Though You should also make it decrease thier livespans significantly though for uh, realism purposes :0 And if someone catches them, they should have a disgusted moodlet...or something :0
And dunno, the editor worked for me, but then again, I didnt make the edited sim work out any after I did the editing? I also have the bodysliders from ModtheSims installed (forgot the creator, but I use those + Pescados face sliders) if that makes any difference? Dunno might just be voodoo thing...
