Following a diet is tough. It's enough to make you want to throw in the towel. Today is one day that you can (and should) — hooray!

Celebrate International No Diet Day — an annual celebration of body acceptance and diversity — by declaring a one-day leave of absence from weight obsession. Quit worrying about the enchiladas and margaritas you had yesterday. Enjoy yourself. Love yourself. And above all, keep away from that miserable diet.

    this is a great idea, but i prefer to save my "no diet" days for special occasions like my birthday. maybe i'll celebrate it when i go to my grandma's for mother's day this sunday-she makes amazing desserts.

    Great idea, but there is no reason to drop the dieting today...maybe in a few months...

    Good idea for a day. I'm still sticking to my weight watchers way of eating. It's not exactly a diet and I can still have chocolate.

    Its so nice to have someone else tell you "hey chill out of a day, you are beautiful!" Even when trying to better yourself it is so important to just take a break! It helps so much to keep everything in perspective!

    I don't "diet", I just eat healthy most of the time and I allow myself a treat now and then. So I don't think I'm going to go hog-wild today or anything, but I will allow myself a treat or something today.

    I think people miss the point of no diet day. It isn't a cheat day or permission to eat more for a day, to go without guilt for one day. No diet day is used to promote body acceptance and listening to your body and fufilling your body's needs. The day is suppose to bring awareness to eating disorders and body image problems--both of which are associated with dieting.
