hi iyonna,

try getting those muscles gently stretched, perhaps a little yoga, or just put on your fav cd and dance a bit. one of my friends, who is 80, puts on the music and dances for 20 minutes after lunch. needless to say, she never has had a weight problem and enjoyed her exercise.

my daughter found a walking friend and they mall walk. works for her.

soreness comes also from not drinking enough water. take care of yourself, use a heating pad, stretches, and if you can, get a massage.
