Be prepared for your body having to go through some adaptations to get used to the new activity. However, if something really starts to hurt, take it as a sign that something is wrong (often the way the bike is setup for your physique), and don't wait to get it sorted out. When reading any bicycle related forum, don't let post count of the contributor be a determination of the veracity of the statements made. AND, above all, learn that blueberry pie has somewhat of a cult standing here.
