Funny, our stats line up almost exactly, 5'4 and I kicked off right around 194. Month one on the starter amount I lost close to 6 pounds, mostly fluid coming off early. The appetite drop hit me quick though, forgot lunch entirely on day two, which basically never happens for me. Once I stepped up a level the pounds came off slower and steadier, maybe one or two here and there instead of that early burst. Best advice I can give, ride out the whole first month before going up, that's what everyone around here suggests so your system has time to adjust. Stay on top of hydration and keep tabs on your bathroom habits, that part caught me off guard right at the start.
