I am 5'5.75'' age 39
Start: 202.6 lbs (BMI 33.0)
Aim: To be maintaing a healthy lifestyle and weight (BMI 21-22) by my 40th birthday in May.
Plan: Use SnS to get the worst of my excess weight off, then slowly swap to calorie controlled healthy eating whilst simulaneously increasing exercise.
Records: I WI daily and record every Saturday. I take my measurements every time I hit a whole BMI number (and record new bra sizes as and when it becomes obvious I need to downsize). I am going to split my weight loss into phases ranging from 1 week to 12 weeks.
Phase 1 (Cutting down calories using old exante packs and wise choices):
13 days: -6.0 lbs (BMI 32.0) 196.6 lbs Total Loss = 6.0 lbs
Phase 2 (SnS 100% - 4 packs a day + milk allowance + 200g veg):
Week 1: - 4.4 lbs (BMI 31.3) 192.2 lbs Total Loss = 4.4 lbs (10.6 lbs)
Week 2: - 3.8 lbs (BMI 30.6) 188.4 lbs Total Loss = 8.2 lbs (14.2 lbs)
Week 3: - 3.4 lbs (BMI 30.1) 185.0 lbs Total Loss = 11.6 lbs (17.6 lbs)
Week 4: - 3.8 lbs (BMI 29.5) 181.2 lbs Total Loss = 15.4 lbs (21.4 lbs)
Week 5: - 2.6 lbs (BMI 29.1) 178.6 lbs Total Loss = 18.0 lbs (24.0 lbs)
Week 6: - 3.6 lbs (BMI 28.5) 175.0 lbs Total Loss = 21.6 lbs (27.6 lbs)
Week 7: - 4.0 lbs (BMI 27.8) 171.0 lbs Total Loss = 25.6 lbs (31.6 lbs)
Week 8: - 3.2 lbs (BMI 27.3) 167.8 lbs Total Loss = 28.8 lbs (34.8 lbs)
Week 9: - 1.0 lbs (BMI 27.1) 166.7 lbs Total Loss = 29.8 lbs (35.8 lbs)

UGH! I have a decision to make today.
I basically stalled this week (I expected to lose less as I am mid-cycle and that always affects me, but not this much so far on SnS) with the following daily weights:
SAT: 167.8
SUN:167.2
MON:167.0
TUE: 167.4
WED: 167.2
THU: 167.2
FRI: 167.6
SAT: 166.8
Managed to get a 1 lb loss this week.
I know that this is pretty normal for 10+ weeks into a diet (the same thing happens no matter what diet I am doing - definitely had this happen twice with WW before things got moving again) but I am wondering whether it is a sign to take food break now (which is actually more convenient than waiting another three weeks + it spaces it out better with Christmas) or even do a refeed and swap onto a LCD + exercise for a while.
I think the main thing though is that I need to make an absolute decision very soon and stick with it, at least until next Saturday. I might start a thread asking for advice...

Just to end this thread...
I have moved my WI and Stats to the silver members diary section (http://www.minimins.com/silver-memb...thday-campaign-11-weeks-down-28-weeks-go.html ) as I start refeed and move on to a LCD for the next phase in my journey!
