Are you looking for interesting and unusual ideas as to what to do for a stag night? How about an action packed gift experience of the outdoor kind? Whether there are a just a few stags or a whole herd, there are plenty of activities to suit all sorts, kinds and levels of thrill seekers. So here are a few ideas to get your blood pumping!

Survival Courses

Like to think you are the new Ray Mears or Bear Grylls? Watched a survival show on TV and thought ‘I could do that’? Well, now’s your chance to prove it. Instead of a pint and a curry on your stag night, why not try an outdoor survival course, complete with map reading, making camp and setting traps for food. This will challenge you and your mates and has got to be easier than actually getting married.

Paintballing

The old saying that ‘boys will be boys’ is as true for adults as it is for kids. And boys like nothing more than to ‘play war’. This makes paintballing the ideal choice for a stag party. There are a number of purpose built ‘battle-fields’ across the UK, you can suit up in combat gear for an adrenaline fuelled action packed day. It will be like all your birthdays have come at once. Armed only with paint guns and lots of ammo you can hunt down the enemies HQ or fight amongst yourselves. The choice is, as always, yours.

Losing Weight and Looking Wonderful On The Wedding Day

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

You dream of your wedding day your whole life. Looking perfect is a must, and for many, that means weight loss is a major concern.

Along with getting the dress, booking a caterer, and arranging flowers, quick weight loss is at the top of many brides’ minds. Here are some weight loss strategies so you can make sure all eyes are on you – and that you like it! – on your special day.

1. Nutrition is paramount.

Many brides feel like they need to lose some weight before they can fit into the dress of their dreams, but do yourself a big favor: don’t resort to depriving your body of food and nutrition.

You can get into the shape you want by following a safe and healthy weight loss plan for nutrition. The key is to start early so you have plenty of time. Quick weight loss isn’t always healthy or safe.

* To lose weight, cut calories. Simply cutting 200-250 calories (a few cookies, a slice of cake, a soda) can help you achieve your goals.

* Don’t skip meals. This puts your body in starvation mode, when it stores fat instead of burning it.

But before you go off spending half your wedding budget on diet pills, supplements and the latest fad diets, heres a few tips to help you lose pounds before the big day.

* Only eat when you’re hungry. Your eating habit is set and sometime the temptation to eat may occur because you’re bored, you are not really hungry to eat. It would happen that your body is mistaking thirst for hunger. So drink more water throughout each day to prevent this from happening.

* Consume fewer carbohydrates and salty foods. Try limiting yourself to 100 grams of carbohydrates a day. Decrease this amount if you are not seeing results. Half of your lunch should consist of fruit, and half of your dinner should be vegetables. Healthy foods lead to weight loss.
