A girl I'm training had the same apprehension--she thought even bodyweight would be too much, but after just over a month, she's blown past that and the stretch bands I gave her to use--in fact, she did her first Olympic bar deadlift yesterday--so she's adjusting her budget to join a gym in the next week or two. You'll want heavier stuff before you know it.
