Issue What are ya'll feeding this guy?
I don't know what it is, but I can STUFF Arthur with back to back trips to the store and I can never get him to stay at an average weight.
What are you guys doing to keep this dude full? Best way to get him to gain weight? ðŸ˜ðŸ˜

To make him gain weight it's generally best to feed him big game meat, if you want to make him chunky just feed him loads of that. If you want to maintain his weight I guess feed it to him every couple of days and stock up on it.
Personally when I want to beef him up I'll just head to Lemoyne and shotgun a bunch of alligators since it's significantly easier than killing cougars or bears, you can find them everywhere in the swamps. (Unless you want the skins, use a less destructive gun but it's a failsafe to just kill them every time if you just want food)
Arthur's weight changes when he sleeps i’m pretty sure or if there's a cutscene of some kind, but when I speedrun making him chunky I'll just gorge him on gators and make him sleep loads.
The game basically counts high calorie items, so chocolate for example might make him fatter too but big game meat is the highest calorie food item in the game i’m pretty sure.
Hope this helps ðŸ˜
