    Check out this Stronglifts 5x5 for women group:

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/show/4618-stronglifts-5x5-for-women

    Not everyone can start with the bar so they adjust to what they can do with dumbbells. 5x5 is a good program to help build strength with just a few moves. A lot of the members of the above group have started to add other work into the mix which may help you out when you are stuck at home without a ride to the gym. There are also a ton of links to form videos and other info.

    Also, most people can actually lift more than they think they can. You may be surprised at what you can do.
