There was quite an interesting channeling on lightworker.org about how being overweight could be the result of trying to "expand" your energy body and expanding your physical body instead.
Neptune is limitless and has no boundaries. I gather if you live it physically in the material world, could well mean gaining weight.
I am sure someone with Neptune close to the ascendant has a deep (spiritual) longing. But I think Neptune is hard to live in the spiritual sense. No idea why, but I think Neptune is very much misunderstood and hard to grasp, since it is so nebulous.
I knew two people with Neptune in first house (Scorpio, though) who under the guise of spirituality were manipulative. Then I know someone with Neptune in Sagitarius, close to the asc. who indeed has weight problems.
Neptune isn't a planet I know too much about. Dreams and fantasies. Neptune causes us to see what is not actually there. Coincidentally, Neptune holds the power to pull back its own 'dream curtain' to reveal what is actually there.
I've had Neptune transiting my fourth house for awhile. I can see my own approach to my house. Its not decorated or ever complete. Why? Neptune allows me to see my house as what it would be if I completely the projects I have dreamed up in my head. A small flower bed, for instance, probably looks like a weeded mess to visitors. Me, I only see the rose bushes and mulch that I'm going to install next summer, and I'm not going to do it now because I need to level and till the bed, but why do that until the plants are ready to go in..... So, every time I look in that direction, I see what I dream it to be. Sometimes, I'll get an aspect to Neptune that says "hey, go ahead and make that dream manifest today, dummy".

So, maybe, MAYbe, Neptune in the first house gives the ability to view the physical features for what one dreams them to be instead of what they are? So, you look in the mirror, and you think "these arms are going to look so defined when I get done with them." Then, a year later, you look and think "this isn't what I thought it would be..."
My Neptune is in second house. It can be that I choose not to look at the reality of my personal resources (pocket book), and instead turn to a fantasized version of them.
