How to lose calories before your wedding

Taking the lead from our previous article, how many calories to lose weight, we present below some new ideas on how to lose calories before your wedding and look great on that big day.

Every bride’s dilemma is to look perfect in their wedding day. For that to happen, you need to look stunning from head to toe; that includes your hair-do, make-up, and of course your dress. Finding the perfect dress is one thing, but fitting in it is another. If you are one of those brides who can’t seem to fit in the dress of your dreams or a bride who would like to look extra slender for her big day, this article is for you.
Tip #1 Include it on your “To do” list
Every bride to be has a “to do” list so she’ll not forget even the slightest detail for the wedding. That means, including “losing 10 pounds before the wedding” on that list will remind you of your goal. However, since the said statement is too broad, add specific sub-entries that include date, activity, and goal:
  • October 20-25,2010 – two hours/day on the treadmill to lose one pound
  • October 26-31,2010 – two hours/day on the stationary bike to lose one pound
  • November 1-5,2010 – one hour/day aerobic classes to lose one pound
Tip #2 Minimize pre-wedding dine-outs
You and your maid of honor or groom have the tendency to dine out as you look and meet-up with wedding suppliers. Common scenarios are lunch or dinner meeting with your wedding coordinator, food tasting with possible caterers and cake suppliers, talking over coffee as you discuss the details, or simply having snacks in a fast food restaurant as you and your fiancé discuss the budget.
These innocent meals do not help you lose weight. In fact, they can make you look bigger as you walk down the aisle. Minimizing these meal meetings to only those that are necessary like food tasting, will greatly help you in managing your weight. In addition to that, it can also help you allocate more funds for your wedding.
Tip #3 Invite your groom to do an activity with you
Most men do love and have sports, why not join your fiancé on that sport. This way, you get to burn some calories and spend more time with him before you two become officially Mr. and Mrs. And if in case he’s not into sports yet, it’s never to late to start. Invite your guy to start engaging in a sport activity that both interest you.
Tip #4 Enroll in dancing class
Dancing burns calories as much as working out in a gym. You have the option to enroll alone, bring along a girl friend, or invite your fiancé to enroll with you. Talking your groom to go on dancing lessons with you not only allow you both to look at your best on your wedding but also allows you to render a special dance which could make your wedding extra special.
Tip #5 Negate stress
Stress releases a chemical to the brain which is interpreted as hunger. That’s the reason why people who are stressed seem to have certain food cravings. If you want to lose weight before your wedding, try to avoid stressors. Also, avoiding stress will help you look fresh and glowing on your wedding day.
Best wishes!
