| Getting
in Shape |
|
The big day is in a few months and you want to get in shape.
The thought of squeezing into a pair of spandex shorts is
enough to drive anyone's motivation down! However, you have to
remember that this your big day. So, girls, it's time to get
motivated! Below you'll find a list of helpful tips to get you
started on a workout program. |
-
Do
not put pressure on yourself to lose the weight. Planning a
wedding is already stressful enough - you don't need the
added pressure!
-
If
you don't workout and are not sure where to begin, start
with a walk. Walking is simple, inexpensive and you can do
it anywhere! Set goals - walk for 20 minutes one day and add
five minutes to your walk the next time. Or time yourself -
see how far you can walk in 30 minutes and see if you can
walk further the next time. Reaching your goals will keep
you motivated. Not only does walking get you in shape, but
it also reduces stress.
-
Join a gym. Not only can you workout with all the equipment,
you'll find lots of great classes, such as: step aerobics,
spinning, yoga, kickboxing, and sculpt classes. Working out
will help you lose the fat and gain muscle (remember -
muscle burns fat!).
-
If
you can't get motivated, hire a personal trainer. He/she
will be sure to push you harder than you would push
yourself!
-
Feel like exercising is a chore? Then take up a sport! Why
not join a softball team? Or how about volleyball or
basketball? Lots of local schools have evening classes that
include these sports. Perhaps your place at work has a team
you can join.
-
Talking with friends will also keep you motivated. There are
also many chat rooms on the internet that will keep you
motivated. Hearing their stories will inspire you.
-
As
you start to lose weight, focus on the positive. Don't focus
on how much more you have to lose. Give yourself the credit
you deserve for all the hard work you've done.
|
After exercising for a few weeks, you'll start to notice a
change in both your body and your spirit. Feeling better about
yourself will relieve any stress. In turn, making your wedding
planning a bit easier!

What is the role of the groom's mother in planning the
bridal shower? My future mother-in-law is causing a
commotion over the fact that her daughter-in-law, who is a
bridesmaid, was contacted by the maid of honor regarding
the shower before she was contacted. The maid of honor, my
sister, had every intention of contacting her with the
specifics, but did not want to impose on her by asking for
help, as she thought the planning of the shower was up to
the bridesmaids. |
|
|
|
Usually the maid of honor hosts it with help from the
other bridesmaids, female friends and family members. It
can be a sticky situation. Just explain to your
mother-in-law that your sister didn't want to impose on
her because she knew that the parents of the groom usually
host the rehearsal dinner and she didn't think it fair to
impose on her so much. |
