Gonna link @losthog here, he started lifting in his 40s and is benching high 200s, squatting low 400s and deadlifting low 500s with nowhere to go but up. This is just the beginning man, and your family will be thankful for the extra years you gave yourself by losing all that weight.

Solid work you are putting in to make gains (losses) like that!

Odd, did you get it looked at ? Could be bruising or a finger strain.
Hopefully you still managed to do some training and just work around it.
531- simple strength is a good place to start.
@Frank_C can assist with CT programs which would be good also
It all depends on what your goals are with lifting. Do you want to be as strong as you can be, lift for health and body composition, want to be athletic and explosive, or be a deadly man…
Programming can take many shapes depending on your goals…
