Hi there! I'm on day 2 of SS, so I feel your pain. If you go into this with a good focused attitude you will do it no problem! It's totally achievable.
I have just under 6 stone to loose, so have a much longer way to go than you!! I have set a 3 month target of 3 stone which I would be very happy with and will just go on from there.
Would love to hear your progress so keep posting and I will do the same.
