Following knee replacement surgery, Sherrill felt the same and after gaining some unwanted weight, she wanted to give herself something back.
But, like many of us, she was completely phobic of the idea of going to a traditional gym, she would join up and never go again. By instead surrounding herself with like-minded people of similar stories, she instantly felt at ease.
Sherrill has now managed to rediscover her confidence and has got her life back again!
