Helping women 40+ navigate menopause with confidence, clarity and support. Coaching for energy, mindset, lifestyle and wellbeing during midlife.
Feel like yourself again. My name is Sherri Crystel, founder of Nutribody. For the past two decades, health and fitness have been a passion of mine, which has had a positive impact on my life, as to the way I look and feel and continues to do so to this day. At High School, I loved sports and excelled on and off the track and was selected for the athletics team. I enjoyed the thrill and buzz that
came from competing. From leaving school I began a modelling career which allowed me to travel and see the world, eventually settling in Cyprus which became home for the next four years. I continued modelling though, at times I felt pressured about maintaining a low weight and I became obsessive about how I looked. It got to the point where I would force myself to vomit and as a result, my health started to suffer. I didn’t have the energy to exercise and became very depressed and wouldn’t go out. I eventually arrived back in the UK and fortunately got the help I needed before it became too serious. After many counselling sessions, I went on to make a full recovery. It's not surprising that in today’s world particularly for young people, who often develop an inferiority complex, as we are bombarded with 1000s of images of what is perceived as the perfect image! From my personal experience, I found taking care of myself through exercise and good nutrition helped me in developing a healthy self-image, as not only my body was toned and healthy, though equally, my mental health was in good shape too, exercising naturally releases endorphins and other neurotransmitters. Sherri Crystel | Shawn Ray from my bout of illness I was keener than ever to fully restore my health and was now back on track and joined a gym. I was introduced to weight training and soon developed a passion, the results were fantastic, to say the least. My passion was further fulled after a photoshoot with Shawn Ray, who at the time was a world-class bodybuilder. He encouraged me to go full steam ahead, and train like my life depended on it! Some years later after having my first child, I put on a lot of weight and had completely lost interest in exercising, as I was suffering from post-natal depression. Having a baby was the best thing ever, though, because of my illness, I had no interest whats so ever to exercise, as I had all on just to focus on being a Mother. I ate whatever I wanted, which looking back, was for comfort. The weight continued to pile on and I became increasingly unhappy and more depressed. Several months passed by, reluctantly, I started to take medication as I knew I needed help. Within a few weeks, I started to feel better. After much contemplation, I decided to become a member of my local gym, though I felt very uneasy as I wasn’t feeling my most confident, to say the least though, from some gentle encouragement from my family, I took the first step. I was given a training program to follow and as the weeks passed, I started to see results. I felt more positive, I looked and felt great, back to how I used to feel! I eventually came to a point where I started to plateau; felt bored with the gym and started to lose interest. I spoke to a personal trainer and asked for some help to take my training to the next level. I started working with him two to three times a week. – the results were amazing and I realised that having someone to push and challenge me beyond what I thought was possible was the key, though more importantly, someone to who I was accountable! It was at this point that I wanted a challenge and to push myself further than ever before. With much trepidation, I entered the Miss Figure UK competition. I was terrified at the thought, though, as Dc Norman Vincent Peale says;
“What the mind can conceive and believe it will achieve"! I trained like never before, it became my life, focused concentrated effort and a very strict eating regime. I looked and felt amazing and was shocked as to how far I had come. My trainer pushed me to the very brink, I’m so glad he did. I placed second in my first heat, qualifying me for the British final no less, where I placed fourth place respectively. What a feeling, –Teamwork, hard work but oh so worth it. I would contribute a large part to my success and mental preparation before competing in the many self-development courses I have attended over the years. The most recent with the infamous Tony Robbins – Tony has changed the lives of millions of people, considered the father of the life coaching industry
Tony Robbins reaches millions of people through his best selling books, audio products, public speaking engagements and live appearances. On one particular occasion, I was challenged to a firewalk -2000c no less- wow! Incredible and I still have both feet!.. and went back the following year to do it all again! It was at this seminar that I was inspired to become a personal trainer. Tony recommended that I study the best people in my chosen industry and aim high! That’s exactly what I did and in 2009 Nutribody was established. And the rest is history, as they say! From the outset, it has always been my intention to provide a private training studio as I felt and knew they were people who felt like I did when I first joined a public gym! I was embarrassed and felt everyone was looking at me and imagined everyone to be super-fit! NOT everyone was super-fit as I had imagined, though many individuals will avoid at all costs exercising in public, regardless. Hence, why I created Nutribody, not only for those who enjoy privacy but equally for those who appreciate an environment that is sole “their time” not having to wait for someone to finish on a piece of equipment or distracting TV's etc! But, more importantly, who can see results from their hard work. And as I explain to potential clients: A gym membership is a cost (particularly for the vast majority who don’t attend) versus an investment with a bespoke training program, with private one to one training sessions. Should you decide to become one of my clients, I welcome you with open arms and look forward to helping you achieve your true potential. Call and make that all-important first step, you’ll be glad you did, your life might just depend on it! Though it has to be said: Potential minus commitment equals nothing! I’m with you every step of the way because I care. Teamwork makes the dream work – Becoming healthy, fit and re-vitalised. Best of health,
Sherri Crystel

When I became a grandma, something changed.
For years, my health goals were centred around me.
Competing.
Pushing myself.
Achieving new milestones.
Seeing what my body was capable of.
But then Willow and Hudson came into my life, and suddenly my "why" became so much bigger.
Now, I don't stay healthy just because I want to lose weight.
I stay healthy because I want to be the grandma who gets down on the floor to play without worrying about getting back up.
The grandma who runs around the garden.
Who says "yes" to adventures.
Who has the energy to make memories instead of watching them from the sidelines.
Who can keep up with her grandchildren, not because she has to, but because she wants to.
And that's exactly why I'm so passionate about helping women through perimenopause and menopause.
Because health isn't about fitting into a certain dress size.
It's about waking up with energy.
Feeling confident in your own skin.
Having the strength to lift your grandchildren.
Walking into your next chapter knowing your body is supporting the life you want to live, not holding you back.
So many women come to me saying they just want to feel like themselves again.
To stop feeling exhausted.
To stop hiding behind baggy clothes.
To stop believing that getting older means accepting less.
I want every woman to know that menopause doesn't have to define the rest of your life.
You deserve to feel strong.
You deserve to feel confident.
And you deserve to create memories with the people you love without your health standing in the way.
Every time I spend time with Willow and Hudson, I'm reminded exactly why I do what I do.
Because helping women lose weight is wonderful.
But helping them gain the energy, confidence and freedom to fully enjoy the people they love?
That's what really matters.
I'd love to know... what's your biggest reason for wanting to feel healthier? Is it your children, your grandchildren, your confidence, your future, or simply feeling like yourself again?

When women first come to me, they often think they need a completely different body.
The reality?
Most of the time, they simply need a different approach.
I can't tell you how many women have said to me...
"I'm eating less than ever."
"I'm exercising more."
"I'm trying so hard, but nothing's working anymore."
And I completely understand why they feel that way.
For years, we've been given the same advice.
Eat less.
Move more.
Count the calories.
Do more cardio.
But menopause changes your body.
Your hormones change.
Your metabolism changes.
Your nutritional needs change.
Which means the habits that once worked may no longer be supporting you in the way they used to.
That's why I encourage women to stop asking,
"How can I eat less?"
And start asking,
"How can I support my body better?"
Small, consistent changes often have a far bigger impact than another restrictive diet ever will.
That's exactly why the TFY Method focuses on strategic fasting, Mediterranean-inspired nutrition, strength training and understanding your body, rather than chasing another quick fix.
Because my goal isn't just to help you lose weight.
It's to help you feel healthier, stronger, more energised and back in control of your body for the long term.
Which of these habits surprised you the most?
Or is there one menopause symptom you'd love me to explain in a future post? Let me know in the comments below. 🤍

I know that sending that first message can feel daunting.
For so many women, it's not because they don't want to change.
It's because they're worried they'll be judged.
Or pressured.
Or sold to.
Or they'll have to admit that the things they've tried before haven't worked.
If that's you, I want to reassure you...
That isn't how I coach.
When you send me a DM, the first thing I do is listen.
I want to understand **you**.
Your story.
Your menopause journey.
What's frustrating you.
What's stopping you from feeling like yourself.
And what you'd love your life to look like six months from now.
Only then do we talk about whether the TFY Method is the right fit.
Because I genuinely believe coaching is a partnership.
I'm not here to convince every woman to join my programme.
I'm here to help the women I know I can make a difference to.
Women like Jo, who thought menopause meant she'd never lose weight again and now says she's never felt stronger or more powerful.
Women like Camille, who recently told me she'd felt proud of herself in a photo for the first time in **10 years**.
Women like Helen, who completely transformed not just her body, but her confidence, energy and quality of life.
They all started in exactly the same way.
With one message.
Not because they had all the answers.
But because they were ready to ask the question.
If you've been following my page for a while and quietly wondering whether this could work for you...
Don't let fear stop you from finding out.
Send me a **DM with the word "READY"** or click the **link in my bio**.
Let's have a conversation.
No pressure.
No obligation.
Just an honest chat about whether the TFY Method can help you become the healthiest, strongest and most confident version of yourself. 🤍

Every year, I hear the same thing.
"I'll start after summer."
"I'll wait until the kids go back to school."
"Things are just too busy right now."
And whilst those reasons feel completely valid, here's what I've learned after coaching so many women through perimenopause and menopause...
Life never really slows down.
There will always be birthdays, holidays, weekends away, family commitments, work deadlines and reasons to put yourself at the bottom of the list.
But imagine if you'd started six weeks ago.
How different would you feel today?
Would you have more energy?
Be sleeping better?
Feel more confident getting dressed?
Be stronger than you are now?
Those changes don't happen overnight.
They're built one small decision at a time.
That's why I don't believe in waiting for the "perfect" Monday, month or season.
I believe in starting with the life you have today.
Because the women who achieve the most incredible transformations aren't the ones with the most free time.
They're the women who decide they're worth making time for.
Your future self isn't asking you to be perfect.
She's simply asking you to begin.
So instead of asking yourself,
"Should I wait until September?"
Ask yourself,
"Where could I be by September if I started today?"
Your body isn't asking for perfection.
It's asking for support.
And your future self will thank you for taking that first step sooner rather than later.

Not next month.
Not after the holidays.
Not when life finally calms down.
Now.
If you've been struggling with perimenopause or menopause and you're fed up with...
• Looking in the mirror and not recognising yourself.
• Feeling exhausted before the day has even begun.
• Gaining weight despite doing everything you used to do.
• Living on another diet that leaves you hungry and frustrated.
• Feeling like your confidence has disappeared.
Then I want to help you.
Through my 12-week TFY Method, I've helped women lose weight they thought they'd never shift, regain their energy, improve their confidence and finally understand what their body needs during menopause.
This isn't another quick fix.
It's a personalised coaching programme that combines strategic fasting, Mediterranean-inspired nutrition, strength training, hormone education, lifestyle coaching and ongoing support, because real transformation is about so much more than the number on the scales.
Imagine finishing the summer feeling...
✨ Stronger.
✨ Healthier.
✨ More energised.
✨ More confident.
✨ Back in control of your body.
I've opened just 3 spaces because I only work with a small number of women at a time, allowing me to give every client the support and accountability they deserve.
If you've been waiting for a sign, this is it.
Comment "READY" or send me a DM, and let's chat about whether the TFY Method is the right fit for you. 🤍
