Take control of the situation and do not stress. Begin a program that is sensible for you. Start simple by cutting back on as many carbohydrates as you can especially rice, breads, and pasta. Do not starve yourself or give up your favorites completely– Just eat in moderation. Begin an exercise regimen that works for your lifestyle. Whether it is jogging, swimming, cycling, group fitness, or simply walking, just get started.

Drink water, drink water, drink water. Not only is this necessary for your body when working out, but it is incredible for your skin. If you can, then get a few facials leading up to your wedding day to ensure the prefect glow. Finally, and most importantly take care of yourself by taking some time out for a mental health day or two. You will be surprised by the extent to which the way you feel on the inside affects how you look on the outside.
