You won't damage your bones unless you have an underlying condition. Just start slow and steady. If you go all gung ho, you will be so sore that you may not lift again. Buy equipment piecemeal to make sure you are still interested after a while. Start with dumbbells maybe.

Mandarin is awesome. I miss being in Toronto. I would say eat something satisfying before you go. Like a Greek yogurt and protein bar or handful of nuts. It'll be easier to pass on the creme brulee then.

Try table pushbacks and fork put downs. Seriously, if you have 50 lbs to lose, start there. And don't blame your "2nd son" for this.
