Weight Loss Package
Wedding weight loss?
I’m getting married in October, and a wedding store in my area starting a bride-to-be weight loss challenge. Whichever girl loses the most weight in a 12 week period wins a $3k wedding gown, a photo package and flowers so I MUST win! In two weeks, I’ve lost a total of 13 pounds, eating 5 small healthy meals a day, eliminating “bad” carbs (just getting carbs from whole grains, yogurts, etc) and working out 5 days a week, all with cardio (either eliptical or treadmill), 3 days a week I do weight training.. However I need to know what to do to keep to keep the momentum going, because I HAVE TO WIN! I’m neck in neck with another girl, and I need this so badly! The first week I lost 8 pounds, last week I lost 5, I am afraid it will decrease each week. Please don’t tell me it’s not healthy to lose this much, if you’re eating right and enough it’s more than healthy, we are worknig with nutritionists in this group.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!! 
It sounds like you have about 9 weeks left so right now I would focus a lot on free weights with your arms and any kind of resistance moves (pushups, pull-ups, lunges, squats) If you are on the treadmill, start off at 2.5 incline at about 3 mph. Every couple of minutes, increase your incline until you get to 15% and stay there as long as you can. You want to do everything you can to increase your muscle mass until the last couple of weeks. When you have three weeks left, start doing more cardio (running is the best) and yoga. Stop lifting about 2 weeks before your weigh in and do only cardio, but as much as you can get in.
As far as diet goes, right now you want to eat a lot of fruits and veggies and good lean protein like egg whites, chicken breasts and salmon is good. When you have 3 weeks left, start cutting back on the salt and bad carbs like potatoes, bread, pasta, and definitely sugar! Contrary to what a lot of people think, eating salads is not the best right before your weigh in. They bloat you and are really hard on your digestive system so don’t eat those before you weight (probably about a week before). Keep drinking the water like crazy and drink some green tea everyday (without sugar – try splenda). I promise you, you will see results. That is what I did before my wedding and it worked. The only regret I have is that I didn’t stop lifting weights 2 weeks before the wedding. My arms looked too big for my taste. Good luck! You can do this!
