Why don’t you lift weights?

I’m not entering any beauty contests. (Link to SDMB thread.) I kid. I haven’t lifted weights in years because I didn’t exercise years. Since 2020, I’ve started walking, I started jogging last week, and so far I’ve lost about 60 pounds. I’ve been thinking about breaking out my weights and using them again. I’m interested in getting down to about 200 pounds, and I think lifting weights will help.
