Dd2 will be four weeks tomorrow and was born via elcs. My stomach, thighs, hips and arse are just massive despite already losing nearly two stone (I gained 3 Shock). I'm walking but i want to do sit-ups, light jogging etc. Do I really have to wait for my GP check?

You can do some light exercise, but sit ups are terrible in general and particularly after having a baby! If there is any diastasis recti, they can make them worse. Take things very gently, listen to your body and see how it goes.

I was impressed with readysteadymums.com/ and used their website and went to the local group for a bit.
