Start light (5lbs) and work your way up from there!. Body for Life by Bill Phillips and www!.bodyforlife!.com are two resources I suggest you check in to!.
Work your upper body one day, aerobics the next, lower body the next, aerobics the next, and repeat!.

Work out your chest, back, triceps, biceps and shoulders on Upper day!.
Your Quads, Hamstrings, calves and abs on Lower day!.
For eating tips I'll also recommend, Ultra-Metabolism by Dr!. Mark Hyman!. That way if you plan on having more kids, you won't do the major weight gain like this time around!.
Specific Exercises: Chest - Bench Press, Chest Fly!.
Back - Seated or upright row, lat pull down!.
Tricep - Extentions, dips!.
Bicep - Curls, hammer curls!.

I know you want an easy answer but there isn't one!. That's what I think is fun about getting in shape, every body is different!. It depends a lot of what your goals are!. If you just want to look better and lose some weight, I would recommend simply start running and talking to people at the gym!. Maybe someone was in the same boat as you a little while ago!. Other than that, spending a bunch of money on a personal trainer is an option!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
