You can build muscle and lose fat at the same time on a program like Body For Life. It’s a great starting place. Good luck!

I’d start by gaining some muscle first and then look at losing body fat. This will ensure you will maintain your muscle mass better when losing body fat as well as helping to burn more calories. HTH : )
