Big milestone today:
* Officially I'm not Obese Type 1 anymore, I'm now on the Overweight range with a 29.9 BMI

I have to say it is getting a tiny bit easier every day. However, I have temptation all the time. It is really hard to get below 800-900 calories a day. I'm doing a VLCD for 12 weeks only and then will switch to a low cal - high protein diet maybe 1200-1300 calories until I reach 25 BMI (still 13.5 Kg to go)

I have a massive challenge early next month. I have been invited to a 5 days holidays, for me and my brother Bday all inclusive going to very nice (Michelin type) restaurants, drinks included. I'm super excited but I fear the consequences. Also, TBH, I don't want to stress out with food there, my brother and I live in different countries and we haven't celebrated birthdays together since quite a few years ago.

I need to plan a strategy, without feeling deprived and I really want to enjoy those days. Any experience with this type of situations? recommendations?

Tahnk you all, you all are my inspiration

I went on a 10 day vacation and gained 8 pounds. My biggest mistake was messing with my sleeping schedule and staying up 5-6 hours past my bedtime. This is where I consumed half my calories. Since I have been back I have already lost 2 pounds so it is not the end of the world (it never is). So, do your best, enjoy your vacation. Feel grateful for the time with family!

is it just me or intake of 800 calories a day seems a bit low?

@kkwiatkowski - No, your body will burn fat to get the energy it needs. and you will lose weight.

Just choose where to "spend" your calories - some foods or special drinks you really won't get a chance to have again anytime soon, so enjoy them. I usually pass on the bread, rolls, carb sides and desserts unless they're really something special.
