 from this study:

More than 36% of those in the sample said that they had been on a diet at some time in the past two years. The overall tendency to diet was significantly higher among those under 60 years of age. The tendency to diet also tends to rise with income, though it is also reasonably high among the lowest income group. Among those with incomes of more than $45,000 per year but not more than $65,000, 40% had been on a diet in the past two years, and this Percentage rises to more than 55% for those with incomes of more than $100,000. Those on the political far left were more likely to have dieted in the past year than those on the right.
