    Hey Sydney, welcome to TE! I agree with what Sundial is saying, there are some great lighter weight bikes you could look into; but another possibility is to ride that bike more and build up your strength.
    If you rode some hills on weekends, you would be surprised how much stronger you'd feel come monday facing that little hill.
    I'm doing that very thing today. I went on a very hilly ride yesterday and am looking forward to my home commute hill SHRINKING a little bit.

    ps yes, lighter weight tires would help; and they don't cost a lot.
