well, im no lightweight (yet...) and have gone from a desk job
to a job on my feet for three nights, 12 hours each....I could barely crawl out of bed on day three and Naproxin is my best friend now..its been 3 1/2 weeks and i am still sore--knees, legs, etc. Anyone have any tips or ideas on how i can alleviate the soreness while i lose weight???

Ooh that's tough! Invest in a very supportive pair of shoes and get yourself some gel insole cushions. That, with the pain killer is the best solution I can think of.

When you get home from work, definitely put your feet up for at least 15 minutes, above your heart. Even if you have to lay down on the floor and put your legs up onto the couch.
And before you go to bed give each foot a good rub down, too.
Congrats on the new job!

I am on my feet 40 hours a week and I wear the Clarks "nurses" shoes. They have a great arch support. I also wear a tennis shoe with a good arch support insert. I paid $50 for the inserts, but it is worth it because I don't have aching feet, legs and hips.
