Hi everyone,
Thought I might write down my experience with kinda-sorta of doing the program. Mistakes were made but I have made some gainz, so perhaps this is of interest to somebody.
Male, Age 32, Height 189 cm, starting at weight over 130kg.

Before this I was doing some lifting mainly bro-split one or two times a week for 7 or 8 years, I was benching every week, doing machines, but mostly skipping the leg day or doing quarter squats, leg presses, Romanian deadlifts for some reason, usually in 10-12 rep range. In the bench however we used to work up to heavy singles and I had some results there, with one rep max around 140kg at bodyweight about 120kg. Than I stopped lifting and sat on a couch for about a year and got real fat and weak. I've seen SS pop up on internet here and there, so I read up on it a little bit, watched some youtube stuff and started training December 2015. So here are the numbers:

Dec 2015 - I didn't have a spotter and I was pretty sure my bench would still be stronger than other lifts so I decided to only do press.
squat 3x5, press 3x5, deadlift 1x5
60kg, 40kg, 80kg
65kg, 42.5kg, 87.5kg
70kg, 46kg, 95kg
75kg, 47.5kg failed last set, 102.5kg
80kg, 47.5kg, 110kg
85kg, 50kg, 117.5kg
90kg, 52.5kg, 125kg
95kg, 55kg, 132.5kg
100kg failed last set, 57.5kg failed last set, 140kg

Went and bought a belt then.

100kg, 57.5kg, 147.5kg
102.5kg, 60kg failed, 150 failed

13 Jan 2016 - At this point I started doing bench again

squat 3x5, press 3x5, deadlift 1x5, bench 3x5
102.5kg, 60kg, 140kg - deloaded deadlift to 140kg because I felt my form was getting bad, bench 92.5kg (did both bench and press this day)
105kg, 62.5kg, 145kg, -
107.5kg, skip, skip, 95kg

Also at this point I started doing deadlift only once a week

110kg, skip, skip, 97.5kg
112.5kg, 65kg, 150kg, skip
115kg, skip, skip, 100kg
117.5kg, skip, skip, 102.5kg
120kg, 67.5kg, 152.5kg, skip
122.5kg, skip, 155kg, 102.5kg
125kg, 67.5kg failed, skip, skip
127.5kg, skip, , skip, 105kg

At this point I was trying to clean up my diet a bit, and went on caloric deficit. Of course all the strength went away as well.

122.5kg, 65kg, 157.5kg felt back was rounding, skip
deloaded squat a little, still felt super heavy

120kg, skip, skip, 110kg
120kg, skip, skip, 112.5kg

I skipped some workouts here, also had other stuff to do, changed gyms

120kg, 65kg failed, 157.5, skip
120kg, skip, skip, 112.5kg failed
120kg, 62.5kg failed, skip, skip

Now at his point I had lost some weight and was about 120kg

110kg, 60kg, 160kg, 110kg - I deloaded squat again

112.5kg, 62.5kg, skip, skip

15 March 2016, new gym is pretty good, 3 squat racks, also has small plates.

115kg, 65kg, 112.5kg, 162.5kg
117.5kg, skip, skip, 113.5kg (started to use smaller increments, because had small plates available)
120kg, 66kg failed, 165kg form felt bad
120kg, skip, 115kg, skip
120kg, 66kg, skip, skip,
120kg, skip, 116kg, 165kg felt better

Now I was stuck here on 120kg squat for a while, probably because still wasn't eating enough
Also here I tried to finally insert power cleans into my workouts

squat 3x5, press 3x5, deadlift 1x5, bench 3x5, clean 5x3
122.5kg, 67.5kg, skip, 165kg, 40kg
125kg, skip, 117.5kg failed, skip, 50kg
125kg, 67.5kg, skip, 165kg, skip
127.5kg, skip, 117.5kg, skip, 40kg - couldn't really get PC technique down
130kg, 68.5kg, skip, skip, 40gk
130kg, skip, 118.5kg, 167.5ks, skip,
132.5kg, 70kg, skip, 40kg - PC still not good
135kg, skip, 120kg, skip, 40kg
135kg, 71kg, skip, 170kg, skip
137,5kg, skip 121 kg, skip, 60kg
140kg, 72.5kg failed last rep, skip, skip
140kg, skip, 122.5kg, 172.5kg back felt rounding, 50kg

Here I thought maybe I should try to microload my squats (I think I didn't eat enough)

141kg, 72.5kg, skip, 50kg
142.5kg, 75kg failed, skip, skip, skip
143.5kg, skip, 125kg, 177,5kg form felt bad, skip
143.5kg, 73.5kg, skip, skip
145kg, skip, 126kg failed, skip skip

I started skipping power cleans here, they never felt really right and also I didn't have time. I work out in the morning and half or hour of more sleep is always so tempting.

146kg, 73.5kg, skip, 180kg
147.5kg, 75kg fail, skip, skip
148.5kg, skip, 125kg, 180kg
148.5kg failed, 73.5kg failed, skip, skip
148.5kg failed, skip, 126kg failed, 180kg

Not eating enough again. This was really a bad idea, lost like 2kg in 1 month which didn't make any difference and lost strength.

145kg, 72.5kg fail, skip, skip
skip, skip, skip, 180kg - just did a deadlift here

At this point I finally figured dieting not really good idea right now, but also if I'm micrloading squats anyway, maybe it would be smarter to just move to intermediate program and add 5lbs once a week.

I upped volume day more again

week 6
140kg , 67.5kg, skip, skip
125.5kg 2x5, 100kg 3x5, skip, skip
157.5kg 2x3, 75kg , 192.5kg 1x5 failed on 3rd rep, did two more singles

I decided to change deadlifts to 1x3

135kg 5x5, 62.5kg 5x5, skip, skip
110kg 2x5, skip, 102.5kg 3x5, skip

So this is me now, weight around 122kg, I'm thinking running out this program for couple more months hopefully, then run it again, and at start of the next year go on a cut.
