    One for the ladies, and a day for husbands to squirm, perhaps. Whilst waking your spouse on Women’s Healthy Weight Day to proclaim your whole-hearted approval of her size may garner some testing looks, it is unequivocally an occasion for female empowerment. Though now an international affair, unsurprisingly it originated in the United States, where whooping it up whilst tipping the scales can be done with a unique Stateside joie de vivre.

    For the rest of the world it has become a more modest day of reflection and a chance to highlight the lady behind the shallow stereotypes they often suffer. In short, it’s a day for the ladies get together and celebrate one another in any way they choose. Brunch, barbecue, cheese and wine? At the risk of stating the obvious, it might also be renamed International Diet Amnesty Day. Or for the gents, International Walking On Eggshells Day.

    Be careful out there.

    Only just seen this! Pah to healthy weight! (Unless it’s really unhealthy) According to bmi the lowest of my healthy weight range is 6 stone 13. I’m currently more than a few stone heavier than that, and although I’m a bit tubby, (there, I’ve said it myself so I don’t mind if everyone agrees :) ), I’d have to stop eating for quite a long time to lose that much weight. I blame my hormones - and love of real ale and numerous cups of milky tea, and dislike of exercise, apart from at work.

    According to one of my friends, I'm 'solid'; and I once got called Amazonian - although I think I'm a little short for that, ...but I'll take it anyway :D
