Many jobs require some intermediate to heavy lifting. At Safeway there will be new stock coming in all the time; some light and some heavy. Assure the interviewer that you are physically capable of assisting with the receiving of stock. If you do have limitations, this is the time to disclose them. You do not need to get overly personal with health issues, but you do need to be upfront and honest. Focus on what you CAN do versus what you cannot.

"I can bend and lift; however, 50 pounds may be more than I can handle at this time. With that said, I can certainly lift boxes up to 25 pounds."

I can bend and lift; however, 50 lbs is more than I can handle. I can handle about up to 15 lbs of weight. I have a physical disability, but I am perfectly capable of handling other tasks; for example, 12-hour shifts where I could not take a break was very common for me.
