The best, most user-friendly book on stretching I know is Pavel's "Relax
Into Stretch", see
http://www.kbnj.com/ris.htm. Given your complaints,
his joint health book, see
http://www.kbnj.com/sj.htm, is also probably
a good read for you. The two make a great pairing because there are
some similar movements in both (some but by no means all or even most)
and by learning the different ways to approach a similar movement, you
will learn a lot about how to use your body.

See your doctor to make sure everything is OK.
20 kg is a lot of weight to lose - congratulations on that. Jogging can
be hard on the legs and back but it is easier when you're lighter, which
may explain why some of the discomfort has gone away, but there is such
a thing as good form and technique when running, and not practicing it
can lead to injuries that will mean you'll have to stop running
permanently. You might consider asking, after you've seen your doctor,
on news:rec.running about some of these things, in particular about
learning about good running technique.
Last but not least, there are many ways to drop unwanted bodyfat besides
running, so give some of them consideration as well.
