Weight Management

I had to transfer over to the new Blogging, now I believe that it's working for me. I need to loose quite a few pounds also... I need to exercise because over the winter I've been sick and no exercise means I've gained weight. I'm thinking I'd like to start simply weight training. No building muscle to bulk up... just using the weight training to help burn fat, also cardio. I need motivation right now and accountability, so it would be nice if we could get together once a month to encourage each other and motivate one another.
