Hi....some of the trackers on this site are helping me remain motivated. Seeing an exercise graph going up and my weight going down helps. I think there is a woman's gym in queensferry if near to you. I imagine its difficult with a young child. Maybe the thought of you being a great role model for a healthy diet to your little one will help. I hope you find support. Treat yourself to something when you lose weight... spending ages in a bubble bath...a new moisturiser..make up etc. Go easy on yourself, you are a busy mum and you and your little one can learn about healthy foods together :)

Try yoga.  It's one of the best forms of exercise there is to strengthen and tone muscles. There are tons of videos you can watch online to find the best type of yoga for you.  There's everything from chair yoga to serious weight loss yoga.

hi, have u got access to a bike or exercise bike? this is a great way to get fit and doesn't put a lot of pressure on the joints. u cud start with a 15min session a couple of times a week and build up from there. Otherwise I would suggest swimming. this is brilliant as the water supports ur weight and joints. you could start with widths and then try lengths of the pool. you could try aquaerobics too which is great fun and helps tone and lose weight while in the water. just tell the teacher your health concerns and they will keep u right. hope this helps. good luck!
