Weight Loss for Everyone: How to deal with aches and pains from excercisng when overweight?

How to deal with aches and pains from excercisng when overweight?

My left knee and leg overall has been sore and achey. I only walked for 30 min today and yesterday on the treadmill but I'm sedentary and overweight. Is there a way to mitigate pain? Should I get a leg brace? Are there specific stretches I can do?

I think part of the issue is my leg posture. Essentially given my weight I stand and walk crooked causing stress on joints that maybe wouldn't typically be there. I do have very flat feet which I'm sure doesn't help.

I don't want aches and pains to be an excuse to not continue exercising even if for a day. I'd like to walk 30 min each day on a treadmill if I can.

Should I opt for an elliptical instead?
