Wedding Planning Tips

Random exercise I’m going to try. I’m getting married in 6 months. My fiancé and I want to refrain from sex and masturbation so we can loose our minds on our wedding night. Sounds crazy, I know. But I’m just wondering of it’s physically possible to go without an orgasm for that long? I just made it through my first erection without relieving myself. I feel accomplished. However, I’m hoping that six months of this doesn’t cause some kind of dysfunction. Any ideas? Anybody tried this? I’m open to all kinds of suggestions…

I have a wedding to go to in 3 months so my mom and me are giving up junk food. We need some ideas for tasty dinner meals that are easy to whip up. any suggestions?

BQ: 1-3 of the WORST movies you’ve seen in the past year?
(Mine: Twilight and The Last Airbender, definitely)

I will give you a little background so you can get a better idea of my situation.
About a year and a half ago, I was: 6′0, 208lbs, maybe 25-28% body fat. I started on the Beach Body P90X workout plan. I stuck it hard and kept up the diet and the work outs to a T. I ended up at a final weight on day 90 at 188, and lost 15″ off around my body. I think it was roughly down to around 18% body fat. I was happy with the results.
Then we moved, got a dog, planned and had our wedding. It has been a little over a year since I finished P90X and I was back up to 213 pounds. I still have a lot of my muscle mass from P90X so it isn’t a complete relapse, but I definitely put some of the fat back on. I called it the “honeymoon diet.” My legs and arms were still toned, but I packed on a lot of “gut.”
Now, on to my question. To have a little change of scenery, my wife and I started the P90 program (the program that P90X was based on) to see how it is. It is the same type of stuff but shorter workouts. (P90X is 58-90 minutes, P90 is 30-40) We have been using the diet from P90X because it is better designed since they had the P90 diet as a start.
Anyways, since we started, I have been losing about a pound every 2 days. We are almost done with week 2, and I am down to 205.4 from 213.6. I mean that is over 8 pounds in less than 2 weeks. It has been a steady weight loss.
Is it just because I had such a crappy diet and little exercise, to a regimented exercise plan and balanced meals? (I used to eat after midnight, lots of carbs, sugars, etc.) I still have a lot of muscle mass, so is it easier for me to burn off the fat faster now that I already have the muscle from when I was 185?
I am not exactly starving myself either. I eat when I am hungry, and I stop eating when I am full. The only time I “starve” is before bed, but that is what you are supposed to do since you don’t want calories just sitting in your body un-metabolized.
I eat a clif bar (kind of a protein bar) and a protein shake for breakfast. I think it is around 600 calories combined. Lunch is ham and turkey sandwiches. Its wheat bread, lean ham and turkey, lite mayo, pepper jack cheese, and pickles. I usually make 2 sandwiches, but usually stop somewhere in the middle of the second one due to being full. Dinner is a ham and turkey salad. I shred up a plate full of hearts of romaine. Add some lite ranch, some lean ham and turkey, some shredded cheese, and some cucumbers. Depending on the size of the salad I usually have a grapefruit, orange, or apple after wards.
I think the combined calorie intake for the day is maybe 2000-2200. (When I as on P90X, the guide had me at 3000 calories a day! Granted those work outs had me burning 900-1000 per workout, so it was fine.)
So I am definitely eating enough, I am eating right, I am working out, and I am definitely dropping weight FAST. Is there anything I am missing that could be contributing to the rapid weight loss? Generally losing weight this fast is a bad sign. While people may think losing weight is good, you have to do it correctly if you want to be healthy!
Any suggestions?

Too often, stress about invitations, cakes, bridesmaids, makeup and more overshadow the actual romance of a bride’s big day.

That’s not without reason, because planning a wedding is an involved process. In fact, The National Women’s Health Information Center’s Web site cites getting married as one of the most stressful events in a person’s life.

Barbara North, M.D., medical director for Instead, Inc., a company devoted to developing better alternatives for women’s health, says too much wedding-related stress can actually hinder plans for the big day.

“Women will sometimes worry so much about details like favors and bridesmaid gifts that they literally worry themselves sick,” says Dr. North. “While it may seem necessary at the time, too much wedding stress can take its toll on both the bride and her relationship.”

To avoid the wedding-day blues, Dr. North offers tips to keep brides happy and relaxed.

Don’t forget to eat. It’s not crucial to your marriage that you fit the coveted size-6 designer dress on your wedding day, but it is important for your body to be in good condition.

Some women may exercise and start dieting before their weddings, which is fine, if you’re staying healthy. If you eat right, drink plenty of water and get enough calcium, you can ensure you’ll be in better shape both physically and mentally for the big day.

Also, don’t forget to eat a light meal the morning of your wedding. You’ll need fuel to make it through the ceremony, pictures and up to the cocktail hour.

Sense your cycle. Stress can actually impact a woman’s monthly cycle, affecting everything from the timing of her flow to hormones and pain. While some women plan ahead and use the pill to “schedule” their periods around their weddings, you can’t always ensure how your body will react.

Plan instead by having the right tools. North recommends that her clients use the Instead Softcup, which addresses menstrual issues to avoid ruining bridal whites and the wedding night.

Stop thinking. Taking a day before the event to do anything but think about the wedding can streamline planning and help you get back your focus.

Worrying 24/7 can cause physical problems including muscle tension, insomnia, headaches, digestive issues, skin irritation, anger, sadness, or even decreased libido.

No matter how fabulous your big day, there’s nothing worse than avoiding intimacy on your wedding night because you’ve worried too much.

Rather than tying the knot with a knot in your stomach, Dr. North says you can de-stress by focusing on what really counts – your health and the health of your relationship. For more healthy wedding-planning tips, ask Dr. North online at www.softcup.com
