Full need meters
If your Sim is very depressed or has another low attribute, enable the 
move_objects_on code and pause game play. Click on the Sim in buy/sell mode 
and click the bottom of the screen to delete him/her. Once deleted go to the live 
mode and double clock the person's head icon to go to where that Sim is located. 
Everything should be close to full. Note: Wave the game immediately before 
performing this cheat, or you will lose any career changes or points you have 
earned.

Unlike Sim babies, you cannot delete the parents and children. Allow the computer 
run for three Sim days and the kitten/puppy will grow up.
