People buying a new car do not think twice about insurance. That is because they are now accustomed to the fact that as well as being legally required to have it, they accept that it is sensible and prudent in any case. On a larger scale, those buying a house also accept that household insurance is a requirement, although not necessarily a legal one at the moment. So it is a surprise that with a traditional wedding today still costing an average of £15,000, albeit down from the 2010 high of £20,000, many couples are still not taking out any form of wedding insurance to protect what is almost certainly their third largest financial expenditure of their lifetime.
These facts come from recently released statistics from insurers and other wedding orientated bodies. There are also a few interesting anomalies, like the fact that it is more likely to be men rather than women who take out wedding insurance. There must therefore be an underlying reason why people planning to get married are not protecting their investment. Apart from lack of media interest, there is a general perception that wedding insurance is not really necessary. People getting married are often so wrapped up in their organising that they forget that they are spending thousands of pounds without having any kind of protection if things go wrong. And things can and do go wrong. When they do, it can be a costly exercise.
The current financial climate has meant that hitherto safe businesses are now going to the wall at a frightening pace. That means that the venue that you paid your £4,000 deposit to can easily go bust and you will not get a penny of it back! Similarly, those companies that offer the ancillary services, like florists, caterers and so on are all subject to the same financial risks. So doesn’t it make sense to pay a relatively cheap insurance premium and be able to forget about it?
Before taking out any wedding insurance, there are a few things you should consider first. If you use your credit card to pay for anything, like the deposit on your venue for example, you may find that you already have some protection in the form of the Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act. In simple terms, this covers you for anything termed a breach of contract, like the venue being double booked, and you may be able to get your money back that way.
Finally, check whether your household insurance already covers you for certain aspects of a wedding, usually a month before and after the event, but check with your insurer.
Although a credit card or home insurance may offer a certain degree of protection, neither is a real substitute for a full wedding insurance policy. With the average wedding costing a small fortune, for the sake of a premium starting from around just £20.00, be sensible and protect your ‘investment’ with wedding insurance.
If you are like most men — you want to SEXUALLY SATISFY your woman and you’d probably like to give your woman MUCH BETTER SEX.
The good news is that after you read these 7 SEX TIPS, you’ll be able to give your woman more sexual satisfaction and much better sex tonight…
Sex Tip #1. Stimulate Her Mind Outside The Bedroom
Most men don’t realize this, but for a woman — the sex starts OUTSIDE THE BEDROOM.
The reason I say this is because a woman wants her man to stimulate her mind and make her attracted to him a long time before he takes her to bed.
Consider a time when you take your woman out on a date, for dinner. The better your conversation over dinner — the more she is going to want you to ravage her later on.
Get it?
Sex Tip #2. Make The First Move
Women are sexually submissive and do not want to ‘make the first move’.
So, you (as the man) must INSTIGATE THE SEX.
You must take control and lead your woman in the bedroom.
Sex Tip #3. Don’t Skip The Foreplay
Every woman loves foreplay and most men don’t do it (or they just rush it).
The idea of foreplay is to spend some time turning your woman on, making her wet, TEASING her and building up her sexual anticipation.
Sex Tip #4. Try Something New
Doing the same things every time you have sex is a BAD IDEA because it makes things boring.
The solution is to try something NEW.
A new position, location or technique — whatever.
Just use your creativity and don’t do the same things all the time.
Sex Tip #5. Be A Little Rough
Contrary to what many guys think — women do like the sex to be a little rough.
Your woman wants to feel like she’s in bed with A REAL MAN. So restrain her a little, slap her ass and grab her hair.
She’ll love it.
Sex Tip #6. Talk Dirty
To totally sexually satisfy your woman, you simply must TALK DIRTY.
There is no alternative.
Remember this point…
For women, sex is very mental. Therefore, you must engage her mind in the bedroom by talking dirty.
Sex Tip #7. Give Her Vaginal Orgasms
Most guys can give their women clitoral orgasms, but very few make the more powerful VAGINAL ORGASMS a reality for their women.
If you want to totally blow your woman’s mind and give her MUCH BETTER SEX — give her the gift of vaginal orgasms.

The many seemingly contradictory suggestions for how to eat before and after exercise make it tough to know what diet style is best to maximize loss of body fat. To further complicate things, there are two main exercise types, cardiovascular and resistance training, and each has its own unique focus and desired outcome. Opinions vary among experts even within one training type and desired outcome. Let’s look at how to eat before and after each type of exercise specifically to maximize the loss of fat.
The best way to lose fat from light cardiovascular training is to eat a healthy diet daily, not eat before training, and not eat at all for an hour or more after training. The exercise uses glycogen stores in your muscles which your body then must replace. For maximum fat loss you are training your body to take that replacement fuel out of your stored fat. Eating or drinking carbohydrates particularly interferes with that process as the body then restores glycogen from the fuel you’ve just eaten instead. Try wait an hour or more post-exercise before you start your regular meal. Staying hydrated with water, or a low-carb electrolyte replenishment drink if needed, is always a good idea during and after exercise.
Heavy cardio exercise of an hour and a half or more, like marathon running and bicycle racing, changes your eating requirements a bit. Many trainers recommend days of carb loading before a big race, but that is specifically to increase your speed and energy during the race, not to lose fat. The Mayo Clinic, for example, warns that this type of carb loading may cause weight gain, but mostly as water gain. Still, above a healthy daily diet with very good protein amounts, there is no specific need for special pre-workout eating to maximize fat loss. Post-workout it may be wise to use high quality protein, such as whey or egg, with low carbs in the 15 to 30 minute window immediately after exercising to smooth out muscle rebuilding, yet still make the body replenish glycogen stores from stored fat.
When you add a fat loss as a priority to long hard cardio workouts the picture changes. Better than carb loading before the workout is simply eating a good diet with plenty of protein, and no extra pre-workout carb or protein loading. It is possible that you won’t have as much energy during your training, and your time may slow down a bit, but you will be requiring the body to convert those fat stores, and to become very efficient at it. Post-exercise the same highly digestible protein with very low carbs is still a great idea, especially within the ‘refueling window’ which is open for close to 30 minutes after your training.
The best choice for carb-loading during heavy racing is to achieve a middle ground. Train for races without adding extra carbs to your diet. This conditions your body to use those fat stores instead of depending on easy carb intake. But for actual races, use some carb supplementation so you aren’t too fatigued to continue. And make sure to drink plenty of liquids, get your electrolytes and have a good daily protein intake.
When you are doing resistance training, you will be focusing even more on getting good amounts of protein in your regular daily diet, about.8 to 1.2 grams per pound of ideal body weight. You won’t need special pre-exercise food, but you may want to get in your good, digestible protein in the 30 minutes post-exercise. The post-exercise protein is good to help decrease the muscular discomfort and increase ease of muscular tissue recovery, but is not mandatory.
With a fat loss target, it is best to hold off for quite a while after your workout, an hour or more, before eating any carbs. Going right into your next regular meal after an hour or two will be fine. This again trains the body to replace muscular glycogen stores out your deposited fat cells. To lose fat, skip pre-training and post-training carbs as much as you can. Still consider taking in some good digestible protein in the 30 minute refueling window.
Here is what we know about eating pre- and post-exercise:
- Eat a good diet daily with plenty of protein
- For Fat Loss, avoid carbohydrates before and after exercising, which trains the body to use your fat stores for energy
- Carbohydrates pre-, post- and during a workout may be needed to prevent energy drop only during competitive, 90 plus minute events
- Some easily digestible protein in the ‘refueling window’ for the first 30 minutes after exercise will help with deep tissue muscular recovery if the muscles have been seriously stressed
So eat judiciously in conjunction with your exercise to really speed your fat loss, and enjoy your new slim ready-for-anything body.
