Default loss of power slightly when first start & go

hi, i noticed since about 2 months or less ago my car starts fine as always did but when i first take off it shudders and all power goes then fine, if i warm car up this dont happen at all, its no biggie but makes you look a prick when pulling away and looks as if your stopping again, any views on cause, just had MOT,not long had new plugs too....

Diagnostic check would be your best bet.
If this doesnt flag up anything then you will have to try the good old replace every sensor game.
