Staff from Charles Sturt University (CSU) and the Central West Women’s Health Centre invite members of the public to join them for a riverside picnic to celebrate International No Diet Day at 12.30pm on Wednesday 6 May at the Peace Park in Bathurst. Event spokesperson, Ms Brona Nic Giolla Easpaig from the CSU School of Social Sciences and Liberal Studies, said International No Diet Day has grown for the past decade and is now celebrated in Europe, the United States, the Middle East and Australia. “The day was originally created to protest against the pressures on young women caused by the media’s vision of the ‘ideal body’, and it links closely with protests against the ‘size zero’ phenomenon,” Ms Nic Giolla Easpaig said. “This celebration is open to all and includes a talk by health psychologist Dr Stephanie Quinton on the issue of eating disorders and body image.”
