How to lose weight before marriage without covering your face

If you are one of those people who think that they will lose 10 to 15 kg in a very short period of time, it might happen but your face will never look fresh. Independent Urdu has spoken to a bridal dress diet expert in this regard.

The wedding season in Pakistan usually starts from September and before that one of the main problems faced by the couple is maintaining a proper weight.

Over the past few days, there have been many posts in groups on social media platforms where women who are about to get married have asked for ways to lose weight.

Some of the women had little time left for their wedding, but most of the women said that their wedding was in the next two to one month and they needed to lose weight immediately.

Some also said that they wanted to look good on the wedding and others said that they were under pressure from their families, in-laws or fiancés to lose weight before the wedding.

Independent Urdu contacted one of the users who, on condition of anonymity, said that he got married at the end of December and had lost seven kilos in a month through intermittent dieting.

When we asked if she was overweight, she said that she wasn't overweight but she wanted to look very slim for the wedding.

Another reason was that her in-laws had advised her to lose weight before the wedding so that even if she gained weight by eating feasts after the wedding, she would not suddenly start looking fat.

Speaking to Independent Urdu, Clinical Psychologist Hasan Sajid said that 'It is human nature, he wants to look good and it is also a fact that many people are not happy in any situation. They want everything better. Now, marriage is a relationship in which you want to make everything look good, so for one thing, you have a lot of pressure on yourself, you are careful about yourself so that you don't like your future husband or wife. If I come, then what will happen?'

'Body weight tops it. Another pressure that is perhaps even greater is from in-laws or relatives, who repeatedly tell girls or boys that they are getting married and should balance their weight. This pressure sometimes forces them to starve and psychologically they lose their confidence. They go to any extent to mold themselves to the will of the people.'

Hasan said that parents, whether it's a boy or a girl, should stress about their training and lifestyle instead of being careful about their weight, so they can be better and healthier in strengthening their new relationship. Will be.

Zainab Gondal is a dietitian. Talking to Independent Urdu, Zainab said that these days she is extremely busy because September to December are considered to be the months of marriages.

Zainab said, 'It's a dream of ours to slim down on weddings and look perfect in our favorite dresses. Girls want to look like a barbie doll and boys also have their idols, they also want to look like Prince Charming.'

According to Zainab, if you want to lose weight, at least four to six months before the wedding, balance your diet and start exercising.

What is a bridal dress diet?

A term used nowadays by those who want to lose weight is called the bridal dress diet. We asked Zainab which diet is this?

She said, 'Bridal dress diet is when we have a dress in mind for ourselves and we think we have to fit in it. For example, someone has a weight of 80 kg, but the dress he thought is for a weight of 55 kg. When you have to come from 80 kg to 55 kg, it is a big difference and if you come, your face will also be shriveled and damaged, but if you take a time zone, in a year or six months, it will change. If you lose weight, believe me, you will look very beautiful even in your 55 kg dress.'

Zainab says that whether you are a girl or a boy, if you want to look good, look good, it is important for you to follow a healthy plan.

A diet consisting of bread, rice, salad, protein, meat, pulses, carry each food group. Gradually you can lose 10 to 15 kg in six months. But if you are one of those people who think they will lose 10 to 15 kilos in a month, it may come off but your face will never look good or fresh, says Zainab.

Zainab suggests starting to drink more water the day you plan to lose weight. Drink at least 10 to 15 glasses of water whether it's summer or winter. You can also use fresh juice, but if you want to lose weight, you will only consume one glass of fresh juice a day. Along with this, take your bread and rice in a balance and eat it as a must. Apart from this you can eat gram chaat and bean chaat too.

If we talk about a month, a normal person can lose three to four kilos during this period. Similarly, if we follow a plan in six months, we lose about 24 kg.

Dress designer Rabia Hammad told Independent Urdu that women who get wedding dresses designed by her often place orders at least four months before the wedding because it takes so much time to prepare a dress.

'So when brides come to us, they ask us to leave some margin on the inside when sewing the ensemble. They believe that after some time after marriage, if they wish to wear their wedding dress again, then they will be able to play according to their weight. Even if they manage to lose more weight before marriage, the fit is easily improved.'
