International No Diet Day 6th May

Did you know that:

4 million people are on a diet at any given time in the and 25% restrict what they eat in an effort to watch their weight...yet 98% of us will regain the weight we lose (and put on even more)?

British women spend an average of 6 months a year counting the calories?

In the course of her lifetime, the average woman will spend 31 years on a diet?

Isn't it time to stop?

Because if you ask me, that's a lot of wasted time, energy and money! And thankfully, there is a day where anyone who is dieting can give themselves a break and just say "I'm not going to diet." May 6th 2007 - International No Diet Day, launched in 1992 and the brain wave of Diet Breakers activist Mary Evans Young.

The Beyond Chocolate crew are going to be celebrating this very wonderful day on 6th May with a Beyond Chocolate Tea Party. so if you're around London, it might be worth getting a ticket and popping in!
