Wedding Dress Diet

Beat the Bloat

Wedding dresses are cruel, cruel things. As beautiful as your big day frock is, white satin is designed to accentuate every lump and bump – we bet even Kate Moss would have a pot belly in a bridal gown! Limit the chances of guests whispering about “when it’s due” by cutting back on your salt intake as excess sodium can swell a belly to pregnancy proportions. This doesn’t just mean not sprinkling it on your chips; in fact we get 80% of our salt intake from processed foods like ready meals, crisps, cereals and takeaways, so opt for low sodium options where possible. Salt gives you a faux-baby bump because your body stores water to combat the dehydrating affect of too much sodium. So, be sure to drink plenty of water too as this will flush out toxins that have built up in your gut. And remember, no matter how many sit-ups you do: every bride’s best friend is a pair of Spanx.
