The weight system is completely busted for me...

[Golgotha666]

I've spent the past 2 real life hours eating everything under the sun and I am STILL underweight. 

 

Anyone else experience this issue?

It's not an issue it actually works. The sheer amount of food you need to eat is insane. You will have to keep eating food in large quantities. If you go into 'player' you will begin to notice that the negative modifiers are slowly going down as you eat more food.

Good God. That's a bit disheartening, but thanks for that tip/advice, my friend!

Another tip is to eat a lot of Candy and a lot of Chocolate Bars.

It was like this in singleplayer too. You have to eat a ludicrous amount in order to become overweight. The issue in online is, of course, everything is more expensive, so being overweight is going to be costy.

As long as the difference isn't visibly noticeable I don't really care about being underweight. I was max underweight, ate a bunch and thought I looked skinnier, but I actually gained weight, so I'm not sure the difference is visible (of course it could have just been bugged out for me).

Eat use fast travel rinse repeat

My main page says underweight and yet each individual stat shows overweight bonuses and icon.

You have to eat seasoned food that gives fortify cores. eg. big game meat + wild mint.

 

I Keep the golden heath core up, and eat other non season foods for the other two cores.

No... it's an issue.  Some people may sorta drain fast, but some of us are experiencing a bug where we are unable to keep any weight on for any amount of time.  They didn't design a system that makes you eat over 60 cans of food and 40 large game/venison to go from hemoragingly underweight to average for a total of 10 minutes before being back to the core draining level.
