this is a dead horse, stop beating it!

coach dee is coming back...

"Let the folks know that I will be a regular fitness and wellness contributor to Calorie Count within the week, even with my own section. Erik and Igor have offered this to me and I accepted."

great news to start a Monday, don't you think?!

EDIT: i changed the description... this whole issue needs to fade gracefully into the cc archives! LET IT GO!!

WOOO wicked!!! *bounces about* im so glad!

So what you are saying is that basically CoachDee will have a blog? I guess when it is established, Erik and company will make an annoucement. I love the way how they continue to think of new brillant ideas to improve the site. Yeah! I wonder what new functionality they will add next??? I'd love to see some of the tasks on the To Do List be implemented soon! http://www.calorie-count.com/calories/request s.php

that is excellent news!!

Im personally disappointed in her response in the other thread about the whole legal actions.  I never really read her post in the past, so I doubt I will in the future.  I have enough books at home, information on this site from other users, and the entire internet to find the information that has been beneficial to my weight loss and healthy lifestyle.   I am Thankful that so many have found her information helpful, Im just sooooo ready to move past the annoying events of the weekend.

ix- I agree about the wonderful additions the guys are making, everyday they amaze me!  Cracks me up that this is THE BEST, most informative, and useful weight loss/management site on the internet and its free.  The sites you pay for are no where in comparison.

didn't read her posts much before the misunderstanding. wasn't wildly impressed with her behaviour over a typo. don't plan to start reading her posts any time real soon.

as slappy said, the information she presented could be found any number of places.

happy for her that she should get lots of interest in her website now.

Well, I'm a coachdee fan.  She saved me from myself.  Let bygones be bygones.

slappy...I missed her response about the legal action and can't find the thread....can you email it or post the link here?

NEVERMIND....I found it.

i actually didn't read the legal action stuff... i think as a community we need to let it go. she clearly helped a lot of people, has a lot of information that she is willing to share. the really great thing is that we do have a choice about reading her posts or not, especially if they are posted in specific forum. those who choose to can benefit from what she has to say, those who choose not to have that right also...

consider it let go.

but mind your typos.

exactly, very well said Meljo.

I think what caused the hurt feelings and questioning to start is the fact that a member of this community, HK, was put in a spot that was uncomfortable.  I think it would have been best had you acknowledged his apology privately or publicly, your choice, but I feel that it should have been acknowledged by you.  I know you say it wasn't  the typo but I think it was because he wasn't questioning your certifications, he was questioning others and compared them to you, since he DIDN'T question yours at the time. 

Like I have said before, I think it's great that so many people on the site have found your information beneficial and helpful in their journey to a healthier lifestyle and I hope things can and will be put in the past.  Just remember there  are a lot of hurt feelings and disappointment by some of the users on the site towards you.  Instead of taking offense to these comments, I would try to communicate with that person personally by email or in the journals to solve matters.

I didnt think I  said that in a tone that would make her remove her post.  If It came across rude then I apologize, I was just stating my thoughts on the situation.

I don't think it was you, slappy, she seems to have removed all her posts.... again.

I guess noone got to see her reply on this one.  I thought it was good, talking about moving on. 

Well I just found out that Coach dee won't be coming back after all because of all the negativity. This is very sad,we lost a wonderful person!

its time to let it go folks, i think it's okay if she feels like she has to leave... WE WILL STILL SUCCEED IN OUR JOURNEY, afterall, we still have each other, and that is where the support we need everyday really comes from!

so. let it go, let it go, let it go!!

honestly, I dont think she gave anyone a chance to "reaccept" her.  She wrote a message here stating some thoughts, it was somewhat positive and ended it with everyone moving on.   What I responded with is there in #13 for everyone to see.  I wrote what I felt, personally, she should try to do to redeem herself.  I thought she was getting alot of positive feedback on the forum and honestly more than she deserved after the talk about legal actions.  Its freakin ridiculous.  The last sentence of the reply in #12 that she removed was talking about moving on and obviously she has done that so I guess everyone else should move on also with their week and we can all help one another find the valuable information we need to successfully continue to improve our lives.  This forum is here for support and information.

ATTENTION!! ATTENTION!!! If CoachDee has bailed AGAIN, which I thought might happen this morning... I spent some time in the wee hours of the night, after all her posts had been reinstated, I saved them to my harddrive! Including the one about body types that was not available from Google Cache and I know many of you were looking for it. So drop me an email if you would like a copy. Also, I have a copy of the two posts that she made that created all the ruckus, so if you'd like to read what happened here on the forums, what she wrote and has deleted, drop me an email. I hope Erik doesn't waste anymore of his time reinstating her posts yet again. Jeez, makes my head spin!

Oh... and if CoachDee comes around and makes some sort of statement about how I am violating copyright infringements or something like that, BALONEY! Her "lawyer" can reach me via email, via post at Box 58 Spring Bay, ON P0P 2B0 or by telephone at 705-377-4904, please no call after 8:00 PM EST.
