Lifting weights will not help you lose weight, they would actually make you heavier because you will be putting on muscle mass. If you want to lose weight (hopefully body fat, not muscle), then you shoudl do cardiovascular exercises such as jogging, biking, swimming, etc.

Find out what is the most weight you can lift for 1 rep calculate 70% - 80% of that weight and you should be able to use that amount of weight. If you can lift 20 - 25 reps at a time then you have found a good weight. Be sure to re-evaluate yourself every 2-3 weeks
