In search of me

Hi all,
I've just joined the site & would welcome some advice. Feeling vey motivated to start LL now but planned to put it off until I get back from my FREE (I won it!) skiing holiday from 11-18 Mch...While the food looks yummy (& is free) I know that it wont do me any good to eat it!
The other reason for delaying, and the reason I need advice, is that I am worried about the physical nature of skiing on 500 cals a day. I have a 2 hour lesson booked in the mornings and plan to ski (or try - I'm a novice!!) in the afternoon. While I think I could manage to say no to the food I am worried that I'd pass out with all that skiing on only 500 cals a day. Has anyone else managed a lot of excercise at the start or was it too much - I read somewhere that people have passed out etc & this is my main concern? Ima gine the embarassement of passing out in one of the coolest resorts in the world!!
This leaves me in two minds really...do I start now or wait until I get back? Suggestions would be appreciated!
