Getting into fitness. Help/Advice?

I originally posted this on r/fitness but nobody responded and I haven’t been on this sub in awhile but still hoping for some help...

To start off with some background information in a 16 year female 5’6 and 140-144 lbs depending on the day. I suffered from disordered eating patterns in the past due to calorie counting but recently I’ve started my journey of intuitive eating which is slowly still getting there my biggest issue is over eating but it’s a journey so I’m still working on it. before when I suffered from disordered eating patterns I worked out a lot and I did enjoy it but there was always an underlying reason for me doing it which was to lose weight and get to a certain number on the scale but now I want to get into fitness and really work on weightlifting so I can be stronger but I also want to stay healthy weight and I know that getting into weightlifting might make me gain weight especially because I wanna gain muscle but I also think it might be best for me to do what a lot of people call a “cut”but I’m not particularly sure I just know that counting calories might not be the best idea for me and I also have no idea where to start my fitness journey and I just wanna start going to the gym and just working out kind of to build up my stamina I’m already an athlete I do cheerleading which I do about three times a week but I’m really looking to put in the effort and lead more healthier lifestyle any of us would help as far as dirt and exercises.

-Thanks
