Wedding Diets
Last minute wedding diets are not a good idea. Many brides stress
themselves out by planning a crash diet just before the big day. Don't do it!
There are any number of "fad diets" out there - soup diets, cookie diets,
grapefruit diets, 1 day diets, 14 day diets and who hasn't heard of the
"Hollywood diet"? Any one of these diets may produce quick results
for a short period of time but...the results do not last.
Starving your body of needed nutrients will only stress you out and cause
irritability and fatigue.
If you are planning a wedding diet - please do it sensibly! You want to be happy and healthy on your special day!
Best Diet Type -- Losing Weight for Your Wedding Day
- by Michael A. Smith, MD
Diet types for a wedding: safe and effective weight loss in
preparation for your wedding.
The best plan to follow is designed to produce 1-2 pounds of
weight loss per week. At this rate, weight loss is safe,
healthy, and lasting. Plan accordingly and designate the proper
number of weeks for dieting following the 1-2 pounds per week
rule.
For instance, if you want to lose 10 pounds before the big
day, you'll need at least 5 weeks of dieting to guarantee
healthy weight loss (10 pound goal/2 pounds per week = 5 weeks
of dieting).
Diet Types for Your Wedding
Forget about all the different diets available and stick
with the only type proven to produce safe, healthy, and lasting
weight loss. A gradual, moderate restriction of calories with
exercise is the best diet type to follow and the only one proven
to work.
Interestingly, all diet types work by restricting calories.
For example, the Negative Calorie Diet works because the
recommended food to eat is significantly lower in calories than
your baseline diet.
It's that simple. Supporters of the diet claim that negative
calorie foods burn more calories during digestion and this leads
to weight loss. In truth, the negative calorie foods are low in
calories and you end up eating fewer calories than before and
that's why you lose weight.
The best diet type to follow in preparation for your wedding
is a simple low calorie diet.
Restricting Calories
Restrict calories slowly and only moderately from your
baseline caloric intake. Keeping within the range of 200-600
calories reduced, you'll experience safe, healthy, and lasting
weight loss.
The following table shows you how many calories to start
restricting and the maximum amount to restrict based upon your
baseline caloric intake. This is your guideline to healthy
weight loss.
Baseline Intake/Start Restriction/Maximum Restriction
| Baseline Intake | Starting Restriction | Ending Restriction | 2000 2300 2600 2900 >3000 | 200 250 300 350 400 | 400 450 500 550 600 |
What to Eat
Eat a balanced diet. Each day eat 35-45% lean protein,
25-35% complex carbohydrates, and 15-25% fat. Healthy fats, like
Omega-3 from fish, can substitute for a lean protein source.
Each meal eat 1 source of lean protein, 1 serving of complex
carbohydrate, and 2-3 servings of vegetables and fruit. Limit
simple carbohydrates (sugars) and unhealthy fats, like saturated
fats and trans-fatty-acids.
Wedding Exercises
Your wedding diet type and weight loss plan is not complete without
exercise. The most critical aspect of exercise is to tone muscle.
The good news? There's a simple and effective way to tone
muscle and lose weight. Not only that, with toned muscle, you'll
look tight and buff, surprising all of your guests.
