International NO DIET Day

06 May

Journalist Rocky the Squirrel here – Keeping his paws on the nuts of the world 

May 6th is International No Diet Day – yes this is a day that I think me and the pig can definitely enjoy!

This day encourages everyone to appreciate the bodies they have and that we all come in different shapes and sizes.  There is no ‘right’ shape or size to be happy.

If you are watching what you eat, take today as a holiday and excuse for being a no diet day.  Enjoy my friends!

Did you know that International No Diet Day was created by Mary Evans Young in 1992?  She was the director of “Diet Breakers”.  She personally experienced anorexia and worked to help people appreciate themselves for what they are and to appreciate the body they have.

    My wife just started us on a diet yesterday. Perhaps we should have waited until Monday.

    I am never on a diet. I might watch what I eat now and then (evade the soda for some scented tea without sugar or eat), because like everybody I think diabetes isn’t sexy. But on a diet? Quoth the raven: Nevermore.

    What diet? (lol) 🙂

    Paranormal O/T – on the repeat episodes of GA last night, the demon mask inside the Reseda homes the guys were investigating, my ex-BIL had one in his place. My mom told my sis to make sure the mask doesn’t move with you to your house. While the mask is a piece is part of Japanese culture in warding off bad spirits, it is absolutely bad news too. The other episode about the home in Seattle, I thought if there was an evil spirit, it may have resided in the man’s wife for the investigation. I’m surprised Zak didn’t expand on this possibility.

      YES – YES – and YES! I saw these too. I told mom last night that we are all so ready for the new seasons to start. There’s only so many repeats you can watch on Demand. Snorts with piggy laughter. XOXO – Bacon

        You mean you do not want to know each line of dialogue and narration by heart? You’ll impress you friends with saying, “this is what Zak says here and Aaron says this in reply. (lol)

        oh snorts with piggy laughter. You know that is funny because there are some shows that mom/dad have watched so many times that they do repeat the lines before they are said. It’s hilarious! XOXO – Bacon

      Yes indeed!! And it was that kind of weekend. Mom/dad said they ate their way through the weekend. No wonder they are eating light today. XOXO – Bacon
