Every bride wants to look and feel her best on her wedding day, but getting in shape doesn’t have to be confusing or complicated. These R.E.A.L S.I.M.P.L.E. ideas can help you increase your chances of a healthy and happy wedding day.

 

Relax

This is first for a reason. Though you may feel there are a million and one things to do, this is supposed to be a happy and fun occasion. The last thing you need is to arrive at your wedding day feeling stressed and frazzled. Regularly create moments in your schedule to do things simply for the pleasure and release of your mind. Have a pedicure. Schedule a massage. Brew yourself a cup of herbal tea and read a book. Take a walk in the park. The important thing is to take some time for you. Don’t forget to schedule together time for you and your beau as well.

 

Eat sensibly and regularly

People react to stress in many ways. Some binge eat, while others stop eating all together. Compounded by a hectic schedule, you may not come up for air until 9 p.m. (And you wondered why you’ve had that headache all day!) Dehydration, binge eating and starvation can wreak havoc on your metabolism, your state of mind and ultimately your health. Combat this by keeping a few bottles of water in your car and throw one in your bag on busy days. Also, when you’re on the go bring healthy snacks such as such as cut veggies with low fat dip/dressing (you can find these individually packaged at the grocery store), fruit, nuts/dried fruit or peanut butter on crackers.

 

Aim for achievable goals

If your dream-wedding day includes you being great shape, for instance, just because you’re engaged doesn’t mean that you can magically transform a lifetime of potentially bad habits. It’s going to take some work on your part, and requires creating new lifestyle habits in order to last beyond the day in question. Be firm with yourself, but also be patient. Consistency is the key, so make changes at a pace you’re comfortable with so you don’t feel overwhelmed and become discouraged.

 

Limit or avoid alcohol and caffeine

These substances add empty calories to your diet, and can also damage your body and affect your mood. Alcohol, for instance, may seem to relax you in the short term, but in the long run it can destroy the liver and kidneys, increase the risk of ulcers, irritate the pancreas and weaken muscles. It can also lead to metabolic syndrome, a cluster of cardiovascular disease risk factors that includes high blood pressure, elevated triglycerides, low levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), impaired fasting glucose and excess abdominal fat. Whew! Caffeine, found in foods such as coffee and chocolate, stimulates the central nervous system, releases free fatty acids from adipose (fatty) tissue and affects the kidneys, increasing urination, which can lead to dehydration. It also may increase the risk of coronary heart disease.

 

Start planning early

This includes wedding plans and fitness plans. Procrastination will only increase your stress level and possibly lead to illness. If you are trying to lose weight, for example, give yourself ample time to lose the fat. In a month, it’s healthy to expect a loss of about 8 pounds. Losing any more may actually increase your chances of regaining the weight you lost and more. Not only that, adopting a diet that you don’t enjoy may cause you to binge later. Starving yourself increases your risk of illness and may leave you looking sickly in your precious wedding photos.

 

Include a nap whenever possible

Now I know that you may say “yeah, right,” because you either feel you don’t have the time or that sleep is a waste of time, but naps can give you that quick energy boost you need to make it through long days. You’d be amazed how refreshed you feel after just ten minutes of downtime. Sleep is actually important to your good health and can actually help you better deal with any wedding complications by helping your mind fully rest. This can enable you to be more alert and focused when you’re awake. Skimping will only leave you with reduced energy, greater difficulty concentrating, a diminished mood, and at greater risk for accidents.

 

Moderation

Remember it’s YOUR wedding. Hopefully you and your fiancé set a date that gave you plenty of time to create the wedding that will bring you both joy and happy memories. Pace yourself in everything you do. List everything you’ll need to get done and set timelines and dates. When you eat, don’t eat too much. Schedule and space your errands so that you’re not spending entire days on the go.

 

Posture

Mom was right when she told you not to slouch. Poor posture can lead to a stiff neck, hunched or rigid shoulders, restricted breathing, and tightness in the hips, legs and ankles. This can cause awkward and inefficient movement leading to backaches, headaches, and other painful symptoms - just what you don’t need as a bride-to-be. Not only that, as a bride, good posture can add a feeling of confidence as you walk down the aisle; not to mention the fact that good posture can make you look more shapely and up to 10 pounds leaner! Yoga or pilates inspired exercises can be great for lengthening the spine and opening the rib cage.

 

Laugh

Remember, this is supposed to be a happy and fun occasion. Try not to let any bumps along the way steal your joy. Take things in stride. If you find a hurdle in your path either work with it or go around it to something else. There is no right way or wrong way to have a wedding. People have been marrying simply at the Justice of the Peace, outlandishly by skydiving out of a plane or lavishly with media coverage and dignitaries. The objective remains the same - join your life with the one you love and live happily (hopefully) ever after.

 

Exercise

While planning a wedding can tempt you to skip your workouts, don’t lose sight of the importance of regular exercise. Not only does it enhance your general health, it improves your weight loss success, decreases your stress levels, shapes and tones your muscles and improves your mood. Additionally, exercise can give you increased stamina for your wedding night. . .

 

Remember this is YOUR wedding! Have fun with it! Start early to help save time AND money in the long run. Consult with as many professionals as needed to help you create the wedding of your dreams and delegate tasks. This includes finding a fitness professional to guide your success and to help you shape your best bridal body. Afterall, the ultimate goal is not only to pass the “strapless dress test,” it’s also to add life to the many happily married years to come.

There are many reasons why someone will want to learn how to dance. One of the great things about learning to dance is you will get an invigorating exercise workout. If learning to dance does nothing else for you, it will get your heart pumping and may help you get into shape. If your goal is to get in shape then this mean a simple one week dance class will not do the trick. You should have at least 3 months or more dance lessons which take place 3 times a week or more for at least 1 hour or more per dance lesson.

It is important to take dancing serious and attempt to do every move with precision, oppose to a lazy dance move. You need to push yourself to get the most out of your dance workout. A good rule of thumb is if you haven’t worked up a good sweat then you can assume you haven’t danced long enough or you haven’t worked yourself hard enough. Before you start dancing be sure you stretch your muscles.

It really doesn’t matter which style of dance you choose to learn because any style will give you a good workout, regardless if it’s swing, ballet, ballroom, hip hop, contemporary, modern, etc. Dancing is such a popular workout that many exercise videos and exercise dance classes incorporate vigorous dance moves into their exercise regimen.

I sometimes wonder about the history of dance and the history of exercise, which actually came first or did they both initiate at the same time since they are so closely related. I would make the assumption that dance dates much farther back than exercise because exercise is actually a health related item and the history of health & medicine (in relation to living longer) is rather young. Dancing actually goes as far back to the ancient times when people will dance to entertain the royal family.

Learning how to dance makes your exercise workout fun and entertaining, plus you will learn a skill that can give you a lifetime of rewards. You will not have to sit out or keep the wall company at the next party, nightclub, wedding, or event. Additionally, your body will be toned and in shape while you seemingly move gracefully making you command stares from the crowd.

It is very possible for anyone to learn to dance. The resources are readily available as you have the option to join a local dance class, you can get independent assistance from a dance teacher, you can learn from the comfort of your own home using instructional dance videos, or you can get books which teach you how to dance. Whichever way you learn to dance you will also learn a lot about your body.

You will soon learn that learning to dance is not just a few slick and stylish moves. In fact the more you are in shape the better you will move and the less pain you will have. If you are not in shape you will soon find out when dancing. For the first weeks you will endure pain but you must continue to push yourself to get over the pain. The pain is simply a condition of your body and muscles getting acclimated to the stress dancing and exercise puts on your body.

Once you get past the first few days/weeks of pain your body will become well adjusted and it will be natural for you to move gracefully and feel vibrant. The health benefits achieved from dancing is overwhelming and should make anyone want to learn how to dance. So my advice to you is to get out there and start dancing.

Tiffanie W asked:


Ok so a friend in the real estate investment business told me that you can buy a home and get cash out of the deal. This person uses this cash to pay the mortgage for the first year.

I talked to another friend who said it is illegal to get more than 3 percent out of the deal in CA.

So who is right and who is wrong? To me it sounds like good a good investment strategy to buy homes where people have alot of equity in them and then rent it out or live in it while it appreciates, and to use that cash incentive to help with initial bills.

Anyone with knowledge and advice on this matter? I really want to get into real estate investing but, I want to do it right! HELP!
