Profiles & Personalities
Written by Sky Taylor, Diet Bites
The time you were born may have many things in common with other individuals, or not - but it's fun to explore.
Personally speaking, although I don't believe the stars control my destiny, I do find that I have several things in common with people who were born during the 'Leo' timeframe.
We have included dieting tips to assist, and hot spots to be aware of while reaching your healthiest state.

THE AQUARIUS DIETER
January 21 - February 18
Planet - Uranus
Element - Air
Body Areas - Ankles, lower legs
Colors - Neon, electric colors
THE AQUARIUS DIET PERSONALITY
Aquarius individuals tend to be seekers of freedom. They admire honesty. Aquarius Dieters also enjoy being spontaneous and like to surprise others.
They also like to establish a circle of casual friends. Deep-rooted relationships are rare in Aquarius individuals and should be held in the highest regard when they do transpire.
AQUARIUS DIET WEAKNESSES
The honesty/spontaneous traits found in the Aquarius Dieter can become combustible.
On one hand, they may spontaneously grab an unhealthy goody as on the other hand they are struggling to be honest with themselves in knowing that if they continue to fill up with fattening foods which do nothing to provide their bodies with necessary nutrients, (rather empty calories) they are betraying their 'true' self.
Spontaneous eating may also add unwanted weight, so the Aquarius Dieter must work to keep such episodes under control.
AQUARIUS' DIET STRENGTHS
Because the Aquarius Dieter doesn't have a propensity to establish deep roots, they may find that it's easier to give up old eating habits than other Astrological Signs.
TIPS FOR THE AQUARIUS DIETER
Set out a Diet Game Plan and stick to your guns. Don't allow your spontaneous behavior to rule to your diet. Remain focused on what you intend to accomplish on your diet.
Be sure to incorporate some of your favorite foods into your diet to avoid binging - a naturally spontaneous event in all Signs of the Stars.

They do not give up easily and tend to be extremely dedicated to any task they undertake, including dieting. They usually will not give up until the goals set forth have been achieved. TAURUS' DIET WEAKNESSES The Taurus dieter has a firm mind-set and cannot be easily swayed. It may be difficult for them to alter eating habits or change the way that they feel about certain areas of dieting. The Taurus Diet Personality also tends to be jealous in nature, so if they have a partner who is 'the dieter' they may taint their relationship by the inability to bottle such jealousy. Side-by-side resides possessiveness with jealousy and they may fear that if a partner loses weight, they will drift out of the relationship. TAURUS' DIET STRENGTHS Taurus individuals find strength in seeking out the truth. They rarely fall prey to scams, such as bogus diets, bogus dieting gadgets and ridiculous diet plans that limit certain foods. TIPS FOR THE TAURUS DIETER The Taurus Diet Personality likes the art of collection and herein lies a potential hobby to keep their thoughts occupied while dieting. Therefore, this mode is highly encouraged, particularly while dieting to help relieve stress. Explore other modes of relaxation as well because the Taurus Dieter tends to hold stress inside.

GEMINI'S DIET STRENGTHS Gemini individuals find strength in friends and while dieting, a friend is a friend is a friend, indeed! In addition, since the Gemini personality tends to be a social butterfly, support groups work well in helping them achieve their weight loss goals. TIPS FOR THE GEMINI DIETER Polish your knowledge regarding diet and nutrition.
