Have loads of will finally to get rid of excess weight got during pregnancy, hope to keep up my motivation not to put more weight on and loosing few stones. Unfortunately past years have been with loads of stress overeating as my little girl has complex special needs. Haven't had time to myself and if l have rather l eat something and catch up on any sleep.
My aim would be to do at least three proper trainings a week and cut of sweets and change rather snacking to normal meals troughout the day. Looking for some tips how to start it all... Hope you guys in this groups can keep up the spirit and we flow to the summer with extra confidence and new life chapter. Xx

WELL DONE YOU! This (ie today and not putting it off) is the absolute best time to start making those changes! It sounds like you have been doing a great job at looking after your little girl but dont forget to look after you too! To keep up that great motivation that you have got - try make the whole process fun, pleasurable and rewarding - otherwise the danger is that we tend to get overwhelmed and give up or beat ourselves up.
Remember that you are doing an amazing thing that will benefit not just yourself but your little girl too (a happier, more energetic mum)!
I'm sure you know already but for what it's worth I would recommend that you plan and prepare your meals, stick to whole foods/real food (avoid 'diet' foods), make sure you plan in lots of non food treats and relaxation for yourself, sleep(!) and move (exercise) in the way you find most fun.
