It’s never easy to lose weight, but when you are planning a wedding it can seem even harder. Here’s a guide to help you reach your wedding weight loss goal.
Let the celebrations and fun begin if you are engaged and have set a date for your wedding! Let’s face it, planning a wedding is a big job. Making a guestlist, choosing the right venue, booking caterers and a thousand other tasks are on your list.
With a little planning, you too can achieve your goal of losing a few extra pounds before the big day.
Weight loss and the right mindset are key to achieving the body you want for your wedding.
Here’s what you shouldn’t do to lose weight before your wedding.
Don’t have unrealistic expectations
Don’t put yourself under unnecessary stress by trying to transform your body in a day.
Experts suggest setting a weekly weight loss goal of between 1-2 pounds.
This may not seem like much, but it can amount to 8 pounds per month. It’s not bad at all.
It’s achievable for the majority of us. You’ll be motivated to follow your weight loss program if you have a realistic target.
TIP You may lose up to 2 pounds at first if you start exercising and eating better. It is usually water weight, and the result from making healthier choices. However, it is normal that it slows down. Consider getting the help of a nutritionist, or fitness coach if you are unable to break through a plateau.
