    Ah, not good to start comparing weight lifting in that way. We have different...stats :) I'm between 130-140 pounds and row 110x5.

    This is true. I was feeling sorry for myself

    My post was cut off too soon.

    OP: I commend you for not being afraid of lifting. Make sure you follow a good, progressive lifting program. Lift safe so you don't injure yourself and reap the benefits.

    ^ check out this thread. It has so many examples of women that had some amazing transformations by lifting heavy (hint: they didn't get super bulky).

    I vote StrongLifts 5x5. Don't rely on what your fiancé has given you, go on and do your own research. There's ton of info out there. People have posted some great links above me. Enjoy!
    I like your enthusiasm! :)
