Surprisingly, there's not as much practical, reasonable and accurate information regarding bridal beauty and fitness out there. Yes, "Buff Brides" is out there, but that's about it. Therefore, this is my personal roadmap to diva-hood, my carefully crafted 90 day transformation that I call my Diva Bride Bootcamp. The plan is comprehensive, including hair and skincare, mood management and of course, diet and exercise.

 

The official launch date is Saturday, February 26 and you can track the progress here: Metamorphosis.

 

Hair Care - coming soon

 

Skin Care - Allure's Bridal Beauty magazine recommends scheduling an emergency dermatologist appointment for the week of the wedding, so that if you get a blemish the good doctor can inject cortisone into it. Honestly. I tend to believe that you are what you eat and for my path to flawless skin, click here.  

 

Diet - As mentioned in the Backpack, I am a firm beliver in the Leanness Lifestyle, a non-nonsense, no-gimmick, just the facts, ma'am approach to fitness: to lose weight you have to eat less calories than you burn. LL advocates a balanced 40-40-20 ratio of high quality carbs, protein and fats, coupled with intense cardio and weight training. For more details about my diet, please see my Metamorphosis blog.

 

Exercise -  Nothing is going to melt off stubborn fat rolls like high intensity cardio and weight training. To see my weekly workouts, see Drills.
