    Start weight lifting whenever you want, just start easy, make sure your form is great, and it will be fine. I'm 321 and I have been powerlifting for about 1.5 years now, first with a trainer, then in my garage. It's fantastic.

    The answer is always LIFT NOW!!! (Barring injury or other medical advice to the contrary. ;) )

    Lift now. I believe it has helped me tremendously with weight loss. I love having muscle definition...never had that before. I started quite heavy. You don't have to be a power lifter. If you're gym has a trainer, ask some questions.

    Here's a list of proven lifting programs. You'll have better success following a proven program than trying to make up your own program. Stronglifts 5X5 is my favorite.
