Help for a Newbie

I just started my workout today and must admit I didn't realize how weak I am. My question is I am looking to shed some extra pounds and just get cut. Any suggestions on how someone who is new to the weigh training game can achieve this goal. I am willing to work hard I just don't want to concentrate my efforts in the wrong place. Thank you in advance to everyone. I am really enjoying this site.

The cabrs are also an issue, and a very important one. IT IS NOT BY STOP CONSUMMING CABRS THAT YOU WILL LOSE WEIGHT, IT IS BY CHOOSING THE RIGHT ONES. i suggest you to read this forum as much as you can, you can learn a lot of thing in here. also try the FTbuddy to look for some specific themes you want to learn about. cheers, kakaroto
