For some, following the Zodiac is a way of life. Whether a sun sign or a water sign, you can chock up a lot about who you are, and how are others are, based on when you were born and the alignment of the sun, moon, and stars on that date. People peg their personality, likes, dislikes, mannerisms, and more on their astrological sign. To some it's quality entertainment, to others, it's a cornerstone of their identity.
So if your astrological sign applies to all of that, why not link your diet habits to your astrological sign? Here's an overview of how each sign tends to diet. Does yours align, or did it miss the mark?
Aquarians are tempted by trendy fad diets. For sustainable results, they should look at a flexible diet.
Pisces are a bit uncertain with their dieting. A positive support network is critical to their success.
Aries are easily distracted if they quickly realize results. An unrestrictive diet will offer these impulsive individuals the best results.
Taureans rather dislike exercise and may have slower metabolisms. But thanks to their patient and methodical dispositions, they tend to be successful dieters.
Geminis can be impatient and need a support buddy (like a Taurus) to keep them going when they get discouraged. However, they do embrace change, which speaks well for weight loss.
Cancers have a love of food that can often lead to emotional eating. To avoid this pitfall, Cancers should select a diet with a variety of food choices.
Leos are tempted by quick fix fad diets. A support network coupled with a Leo's enthusiasm will deliver success.
Virgos are sensible beings and usually prefer practical diets that are easily translated in to every day life. Yet their penchant for expecting too much, too soon and can lead to discouragement.
Libras have slower metabolisms that match their laid back personalities. Once their motivated, they'll take off! They shouldn't be tempted by easy-out words like "effortless" and "rapid."
Scorpios enjoy success when following a diet and fitness program. Their main issue is dissatisfaction. Scorpios should beware of over-exercising and cutting too many calories.
Sagittarians have one major fault: they take on more than they should. While they're motivated, than can quickly become impatient. They should make small goals and follow a diet with simple recipes and fun workouts.
Capricorns are champion dieters who face one hurdle - their tendency to avoid advice. When they open up to support, they'll find more success.
