Born today on the 17th, January :

They are interested in food and drink. They like to cook for others and entertain, because January 17 is a people pleaser. They adore partying, can stay up all night and will travel miles for a good time. This individual is exceptionally slender in youth and can eat anything. But by their early thirties the lavish lifestyle is beginning to show. The waist is no longer 23 inches (28 for men) and there are little rolls of plumpness where there was once taught flesh. This eventually rotund person will have a life-long battle with weight and is always scanning the shelves in Boots for another slimming drink or biscuit. The women suffer more than the men because that's the way of the world. Hear them say they only have to look at slice of chocolate cake and the inches pile on. Their credo is 'a moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips', but apart from this sometimes too intense preoccupation, and days of lettuce leaves and water, January 17 usually reverts to delumptious ways and wolfs a packet of chocolate biscuits. Mother January 17 is vulnerable to the guzzling-left-overs syndrome. Instead of binning the sausages and chips left by her children, she gollops the lot so as not to let the food go to waste (but to waist). Nevertheless, they are good companions both at work and in private, although some have too great a tendency to control their environment and fear change more than they need. In such cases anxiety results when change does occur and 17 should remember that most things come right in the end, especially if they relax a little. This individual is likely to have several other talents, which should not be left to lie dormant. Many have fine singing voices. Others are exceptional sportsmen and women, both of which talents bring harmony and balance to young and old. And often provide an excellent and jolly source of social life.

Body

There's a variety of activities such as body brushing, mud packs, massage and manicuring your nails, keeping thoughts away from food and hands occupied, which might otherwise be rooting in the fridge for a fattening snack. Manicuring nails makes both sexes feel good, especially afterwards, because dirty ragged nails and hands are an absolute turn off to some. File nails with an emery board to a smooth round shape. Stick hands in bowl of warm soapy water for three minutes. Pat dry with towel. Push back cuticles with orange stick. Massage in rich cuticle cream, leave on for a few minutes, then wipe off excess cream. Buff nails to a soft sheen.
