Good As New Body

Health & Fitness Coach. I help OVERWHELMED perimenopausal and menopausal women take control of their health and fitness to feel ALIVE and THRIVING again!

20 years ago I genuinely believed being healthy was another word for being a size 6! Since being a late 40's, peri-menopausal, full time working single mum, being healthy is about one thing - FEELING ALIVE and THRIVING in mind, body AND soul! As a qualified Personal Trainer, Wellness and Nutrition Coach, I became a Menopause Practitioner to truly understand the root causes of peri-menopause and me

nopause symptoms to not only help my clients over 40 (some younger) manage their symptoms naturally but to also help manage my own. Eating nutritious food, being physically strong, finding myself and overcoming loss and trauma of my past, it is only now that I truly know what it means, and how it feels, to be healthy! Thanks to my life’s journey, I consider myself to be a 'Holistic PT' where we work on your whole self - I am your strength trainer, your wellness and nutrition coach, your confidante and your cheerleader to help you feel ALIVE and THRIVE....again! Wellness and Nutrition Coaching, Personal Training and Retreats are my passions to help you on your health and wellbeing journey. If you’re ready to make YOUR health a priority but feeling overwhelmed with where to start, struggling to get motivated or too busy to think about fitting health and fitness into your busy schedule, let’s jump on a call today and tackle all the above together. I'm SUPER excited to help you on your journey...let’s go! Caroline x

As a mum, working a job, running a house, looking after family, working another job dealing with kids, dealing with life, this week you MUST take some time out to BREATHE! 🙌

So many friends, clients and myself were burnt out last week, I blame it on the Pink Moon 🤷‍♀️? But we just all kept going, the result….broken!

So this is an “order” 🤣 from your PT - this week you MUST:

🧘🏼‍♀️ take some time to rest every day
🙌 do some meditation
🏋️‍♀️ if you miss a training session because you’re absolutely shattered it doesn’t matter!
👊 say no if it’s not absolutely imperative or ask someone else to do it instead

This week is about getting your mojo back!

😴 get to bed before 10pm
🫐 eat clean - think proteins, fruits and veggies, healthy fats and whole grains
💃 move your body - think walks, dancing round the house, keep fit fun
💕 be kind to yourself - speak words of kindness to you, “I can do this”, “I love the person that I am” “I deserve some time to breathe” “I am bloody awesome”

Just remember, life is crazy, hectic and demanding. You are only one person and it’s ok to not be running around being super Mum/wife/daughter all the time….to be a true super Mum/wife/daughter is to make sure you are rested too, as without rest how can you happily and healthily be all those things!

My promise to myself this week - to keep me well rested and back on track to feeling less burn out - is to be in bed by 10pm every…single….night….what’s your’s?

If you think you need a little help comment what your promise is to yourself with the added word ‘TRACKER’ below and I’ll send you a little personalised daily tracker to make sure you stay on track to achieving no burn out this week!

You’ve got this! 💪🙌💕

🍏✨ Can You Eat Fruits? The Answer is YES! ✨🍓

This is a question I surprisingly get asked quite often, and honestly, what has the world come to when clients hesitate to eat FRUITS?! 😲

Yes, fruits contain sugars, but they’re NATURAL sugars!

When you work with me, for the first 6 weeks we focus on healthy eating—and let me tell you, ALL fruits are allowed!

We NEED fruits and veggies for the vitamins and minerals our bodies need to function optimally (especially if you’re perimenopausal as they help to balance hormones) and ultimately to prevent disease (another win at our age!) 🌱💪

So why would anyone tell you to avoid fruits? That’s just bonkers! 🙈

There are ways to manage the sugar content and insulin spikes when enjoying fruits.

Eating whole fruits (instead of juicing) is a great way to do this! Whole fruits come packed with fiber, which helps reduce those blood sugar spikes! ⚖️

In my world, we remove the fear of eating healthy foods like fruits—from those “slimming” gurus who make you second-guess your choices. Remember, if it’s natural, your body knows what to do with it, and it’s highly likely offering some, if not ALOT, of health benefits.

Want to feel amazing? Give your body the fuel it craves, and yes, fruits are definitely part of that nourishing mix! 🍍💖

Let’s embrace all the delicious goodness nature has to offer!

Share this post with anyone who needs some help with changing their mindset from years of listening to these so called ‘slimming’ gurus! 🥝🥑🍇🫐🍋🍊🍓🍑🍌

🎉🌸 Cheers to Being IN Menopause! 🌸🎉

Yes, you heard it right! After what felt like an eternity of mixed symptoms, it is official, I am now IN aka POST menopause!

Not having a period for 12 months means I’m now post-menopausal. My last period was February 27, 2024—not that I’m counting! 😂 How amazing does it feel to say goodbye to periods?! Wooop wooooop!! 💃🎉🤩💪

For the past year, I’ve been skeptical, thinking I’d be that person with a surprise period at 11 months and 28 days—but here we are, over a year in, and... no sign of one! 🎉

This is a time to celebrate the next stage of my life!

While some symptoms may linger (I had a cheeky hot flash a few days ago!), I’m excited about what’s in store and ready to thrive in menopause, not just survive!

When my periods stopped, it was intense!

😳 Ten hot flashes a day! 🔥
🥲 Sleep? Forget it! Very annoying!
🤷‍♀️ My nails just stopped growing—seriously! 🙈
🙈 The rage? SO out of character! My daughter gave me plenty of weird stares! 🤣
😩 The hunger? OMG, I was ALWAYS hungry! It led to a sneaky extra pound each month, leaving me a whole stone heavier than I was a year ago.

Weight gain is real, especially as our hormones go haywire. Did you know our hunger hormones, Ghrelin and Leptin, are also affected during perimenopause?

But guess what? The tides have turned!

I’m hardly dealing with hot flashes now, and the rage is rare. My hunger feels more in control (that parasite cleanse I’ve been wanting to do starts this week!). Plus, my nails started growing the day after my 12-month mark—I’m not joking! 🙌

Is this the new era? Am I out the other side and symptom-free (well, almost)? Only time will tell!

I know my nutrition, fitness, and wellness techniques have been my guiding light this past year. I just need to keep them up—I don’t want those symptoms returning!

Want to thrive, not just survive, during our menopausal phases? Follow me for tips, support, and camaraderie along the way! 💖✨

Here’s to embracing this new chapter together! 💪🥰❤️

Who doesn’t LOVE chocolate? 🍫

Yes, I’m a proud chocoholic! If I could live on chocolate every day, I absolutely would! 😂🤣

But here’s the thing—I’ve convinced myself that just one bar a day is fine. And then I wonder why the weight isn’t budging, especially during perimenopause! Seriously, I only have to glance at a chocolate bar to gain a pound. That random extra stone last year? Yep, you guessed it! 🙈

I’m not saying you should ditch chocolate altogether. But let’s be real: even just one bar (or a bag of mini Wispa’s or Buttons—which I can easily demolish in 5 minutes!) can sabotage your weight loss efforts.

Why? Because most standard milk chocolate is:
- Highly processed
- Packed with unhealthy fats and sugars
- Sometimes containing heavy metals—yikes!

Your body doesn’t know what to do with that junk, so it stores it as fat and causes inflammation. How annoying is that?!

Over the years, I’ve made some swaps that still satisfy my chocolate cravings and yes you guessed it, as soon as I stopped eating a chocolate bar every day the weight started to come off (funny that! 🤔😳🥸). Here are some of my faves:

- I enjoy organic dark 70% chocolate—savouring it over a few days, not minutes!
- I love vegan chocolate from health shops—so many delicious options (shout out to Hu!)
- I make homemade protein balls—50 small ones at a time to last the week!
- And I can’t resist organic dates with roasted almond butter—they’re heavenly!

Of course, I still indulge in my faves like Mini Eggs, Wispas, and Buttons, but now they’re a rare treat!

Are you a chocoholic too? Have you swapped your chocolate fix for something healthier? I’d love more ideas! 🙏💖

“Health & Fitness coaches are expensive!”

Have you considered that working with a Health and Fitness Coach could actually SAVE you money? 🤷‍♀️🤔

Think about it.

When you work with a coach, you gain valuable support, expert guidance, and personalized strategies to not only tackle those pesky perimenopausal symptoms but to guide you and keep you accountable to eat and just be healthier!

That means, with the right tools and knowledge, you will cut down on unnecessary spending—like those quick fixes, fad diets, or impulse purchases for unhealthy snacks that are quite honestly making you miserable!

I personally never understand it when potential clients say they can’t afford a coach.

By making the changes you need to make to feel better, costs are cut significantly, and even with a coach added in, you’ll likely spend a lot less than you’re spending now!

And with the incredible benefits of feeling amazing at last - healthier, energised, fitter and stronger 🙌 - the confidence and vitality you gain from a tailored fitness and nutrition plan I believe far outweigh the costs.

Why wouldn’t you invest in yourself?

For around the cost of a dinner out, you can get a health and fitness coach who will help you thrive during this challenging time. Surely that’s a no brainer at any cost! 🤷‍♀️

Feeling good isn’t just a luxury; it’s a necessity!

It’s time to take control of your health and well-being—because you deserve to feel energized and empowered! 🤩

Let’s make this happen together! 💖

HURRY!! Applications to join my ‘Feel Alive & Thrive in 6 Weeks’ programme close on Thursday 13th March OR when all 10 spots have gone!

With only 5 spots left - DM me ‘READY’ or book a call via the link in my bio today!

You’ve got this! And I’ve got you! 💪🤩💕

🌟 Meet Sam: A Transformational Journey with Good As New Body! 🌟

YESSSSSS Sam! 💪🤩🥰

Living in Brighton with her two teenage children and husband, Sam found herself at a crossroads.

At 46, she was perimenopausal, tired, overweight, unhappy, and feeling demotivated.

Though always active, she struggled with her drinking habits and finding the willpower to change her eating. Sound familiar?

Then, one December train journey, she saw a post on my LinkedIn about a client at Good As New Body. That post sparked something inside her, giving her the push she needed to reach out.

Since January, her life has transformed! 🙌

Sam shares, “I feel happier, healthier, and so motivated to prioritize my health and wellbeing.”

“With Caroline’s down-to-earth, honest, and relatable approach, I’ve changed my habits. I’m drinking much less and eating far better.”

She adds, “who knew I’d love my 7am Zoom classes!” 🤷‍♀️🤣💪

In just 6 weeks, she lost 9 lbs, and now at 9 weeks, she’s lost almost a stone! 🎉

While weight loss wasn’t her main goal, feeling lighter has boosted her positivity and eagerness to continue.

The program fits seamlessly into her busy lifestyle. She appreciates the regular feedback and support along the way.

A HUGE thank you to Sam for trusting the process and sharing her journey!

She says, “I simply wouldn’t have been able to do it without you, Caroline!” Thanks, darling! 💖

Are you ready to transform your own journey? By Easter, this could be you! 🤩

With just 24 HOURS LEFT to book on this 6 week programme, what are you waiting for? 🤷‍♀️

Book your FREE consultation call by 7pm on Friday to start on Monday! 🎉💪🤩

I’ve got you! 💪🤩🥰💕

🎄 HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVE-EVE 🎄

Make sure you take some time out over Christmas and treat yourself to some festive treats 🍫

Here are some little swap outs for leading up to (and after the big day) to make sure you don’t feel deprived but you also don’t feel that usual guilt that creeps in after we over-indulge!

☑️ I LOVE rice cakes as an alternative for crisps when you need a snack with a crunch 🙌 - save the Pringles to Christmas Day itself 😆

☑️ Instead of a whole chocolate bar, have a few squares! 🍫

☑️ A glass of wine which you savour and enjoy, rather than the whole bottle from being continually topped up by your fave uncle 🤪🍷

My other all time favourite is to use a smaller plate for dinners 🍽️ - feel free to ignore this on Xmas day however being less stuffed and more energised in the evening could mean beating everyone at all the games!! 🤷‍♀️

All these little changes will help you to stay on track and skip into 2025 feeling more energised, less bloated and ready to smash 2025 🙌
