Team Ed Rolls Out!

Options
So here it is a new year and it is time for Team Ed to hit the ground running. First lets get into what team Ed is. Team Ed is an unofficial extension of MFP. Team Ed is about motivation, support, accountability, exercise tips, recipe sharing, motivation, goal setting, GOAL BREAKING, and getting wayyy healthy for ourselves and our families in 2011. I love each of you just the way you are and I think each of you are beautiful. But getting healthier is an admirable and worth while endeavor. So this group will use several resources to do this and helping me will be my beautiful, amazing and wonderful girlfriend, Lou (kuntrygirl). We will continue to use MFP as our major site but (for those who choose to use them/are comfortable using them) we will also communicate via email, text, phone call and I am looking at making our own message board. Of course no one is required to do/use anything beyond this site. If your comfortable with it join the email part. If the guys need me texting them or ladies need Lou texting for extra support and your comfortable with it share your number. I just want everyone to be comfortable in this group so we can provide maximum support and motivation. I wouldn't mind if a few of the group members fell in love with each other but that is not our focus. The rules in Team Ed are no drama, no negative comments and no fighting. Lou is the muscle and she will whip you down for it! For the email part, my email is Texassoldier33@yahoo.com. I suggest if you join the email part that make an email dedicated just to it. My last group was heavy into email and we might share 20-35 emails a day just giving motivation and support. But be prepared for a lot of one on one support to. I am majorly about coach. I won't lie and say I am available 24/7 but I am available a lot. My joy rest first in my kids and secondly in helping others to be healthy and happy.

Now I want to get one thing out of the way cause I never want this to be questioned. I am not here to get anyone to buy anything or to sell anyone anything. Yes I am a beachbody coach, but I have never sold even one thing nor have I tried to. Have I ever tried to sell any of y'all anything? They do have some great products but I use their site to coach others, like my girlfriend Lou. I just wanted to get that out of the way so their would never be an integrity issue.

However you feel like joining the group, to whatever extent, Team Ed rolls out today.

LETS DO IT! :flowerforyou: :heart: :flowerforyou:

ps: I will probably reprint this several times over the next week as we gather members. MFP will remain our main site as Mike has made something awesome here. This is just for extra support.

    Thanks Ed Im in!
    emmaleigh47@hotmail.com is my email.

    My goal is to get <200 pounds by the end of the year.
    My half marathon race is January 30th!

    I ran an unofficial half marathon time trial yesterday and I am very sore... and unfortunately retaining fluid because I was not too terribly happy with the scale weigh in this morning (250).

    I know I need to eat my exercise calories... but how do you handle it when you burn 2000 calories!

    I just sent you an e-mail Ed. w00t! Go Team Ed!

    May as well share my e-mail....I'll filter out the nuts later, lol.

    themaidofastolat@yahoo.com

    Yep....I love my UN. Funny thing is...I've had my e-mail longer than I've been a member on MFP.

    Thought you all should have my FB page as well, lol.
