People born today adore feasts and fun. In the summer, just the word ‘picnic’ cheers them up. Like Ratty, there's only one thing they like better than rowing their boat to a place where the wind drifts through the willowy tendrilled river bank and that's planning their picnic basket. October 26 always takes too much. There will be a pork pie with an egg running through it. Several packs of Scotch eggs. Cold chicken legs. Sausages. A cold bacon and egg quiche. One chocolate cake, one fruit cake and some strawberry tarts. Cream optional. Fairy cakes with yellow and pink icing. Doughnuts squidging with jam. Plain and milk chocolate for nibbling at. Nectarines, peaches, bananas. Packets of crisps. And Penguin biscuits.
No amount of rowing will burn off all these calories and sometimes October 26 gets so fat the boat just sinks under him. Which means, we're afraid, a lifetime of dieting. At which this person is, frankly, not good. The first thing to do is get the weight parameters right. Ignore tables which show people of 5ft 9ins should weigh SlA stone. Get the goal weight into proportion. Ms Snacky Eater should remember that the majority of women in this country are size 16 plus which may not be a comfort when you look at some of them.
Both sexes should avoid those plump people white lies. Tm big-boned.' ’I hardly eat anything.' ‘These trousers shrunk at the cleaners.' ‘I'm normally a size 12 (the girls)/32ins waist (the boys) but this shop makes them very small.'
New research shows that to be slightly overweight is not really a health problem and you can have just as much fun plump as you can skinny. If weight is going to be a lifelong battle for October 26, let the battle be confined to one psycheological area only, leaving the rest of your time free for other more interesting things.
In an intimate relationship, you are an exceedingly sensual and passionate lover. However, you have a private, somewhat paranoid aspect to your character that makes it difficult for you to reveal your deepest feelings. When you do agree to commit to someone, you are generous and affectionate.

Moreover, you demand continued reassurance from your significant other.

You need to be the one calling the shots, both in the bedroom and out. Eventually you must realize that you can’t microman-age your feelings and emotions. With a partner who is content to go with the flow, you are an ardent, considerate, and extremely skillful lover.
Try a regular detox two or three times a year, setting aside a weekend when there aren't regular demands on your time and energy. Day 1, eat only fresh fruity vegetables and salads and drink only water and fresh juice. Day 2, water and juice only. Day 3, go back on solid fruit and veg, but nothing else. Day 4, introduce some brown rice and thereafter gradually put yourself back on to your normal diet. At first it may be hard, but persevere and you 11 reap the benefit of increased energy, improved immunity to illness and a very happy digestive system.
Success oriented and hardworking, during the day you channel most of your passionate intensity into achieving your goals. At night, you shed your professional reserve and revel in the deeply sensual side of your nature. In private, a lusty bedroom romp with your lover restores your vital energies and makes you feel happy and alive.

Tough and tenacious, you can be a loyal ally or a formidable opponent. You are not afraid to stand up for your beliefs and let the chips fall where they may. Although you may not know it, your relentless drive toward achievement is motivated less by a desire for status and monetary reward than by your need for respect and admiration.
