International No Diet Day was first celebrated in the UK in 1992. However, countries across the globe, including the US, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Brazil, India and others, have also begun celebrating the day to help raise awareness about weight discrimination, fat phobia and size bias.
There has been a movement in recent years to shed the shame typically associated with being less than Hollywood perfect. The photoshopped images found in fashion and beauty magazines have been marked as a direct cause of a rising instance of eating disorders among the youth. Too long has health been associated with unrealistic body types and unhealthy, dangerous fad diets. No Diet Day has been pushed forward with the intention of promoting healthy life styles at all body types. This holiday has been found to be most promoted in those countries that have feminist movements going strong.
