Hi Billiegail,
Been there done that. You can do it. Weight training changed my life. I cant tell you how much better I feel. Its been over two years since I made the committment to do something about my poor health. I did it slow and for me...but ultimately it benefitted all involved. :) Sometimes, I messed up...but I did better the next day and then it became a life style. Im not finished but Im close ;) Good luck and everyone here seems to be so helpful and encouraging. See ya in the forums.
