Hi! I started , almost a year ago, with New Rules of Lifting for Women-a book with a 6 month program-I love it! You can check it out from the library and see if you like it before you buy it. Also Strong Lifts is great-google it-few lifts, straight forward, no complications . Then there is Starting Strenght-a book with a program for beginners-I did this one too for a while. I liked it!
Here is a link with Starting Strength http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/Starting_Strength_Wiki
Here is Strong Lifts http://stronglifts.com/
And on MFP is a group with ladies doing New Rules of Lifting, check it out!
Good luck to you!You can do it!0 -
I'm also new...and would like to benefit from the knowledge of others in the group. I don't have many "friends" for support yet so I'm searching through the groups for information. Welcome, and good luck!

I prefer Strong Lifts over New Rules but both are good programs.
This is a great summary of Strong Lifts:
