Ladies (and gents?), I'm going to be away for a few days, and Harpo (thank you; Harpo, and thanks for the suggestion, Suzanne!) has graciously agreed to keep an eye on you.
If you have any problems, don't hesitate to PM her for help.

I'll miss you all.
and I'll be expecting a three-pound weight loss from each of you by the time I get back

Yea I noticed Harpos name under our Mods here I was wondering what was up lol...I'm NOSEYYYY or nosey rosie as Jonathan says. We will miss ya while you are gone and don't be gone too long...we may all need a few kicks in the butt!

Hurry back Ellis

have a great time ellis!!

Everyone can help out while ellis is away. And please don't hesitate to PM me either if you have a problem and we'll try to resolve it. I'm open to suggestions as well. And don't be afraid to criticize as well, I'm learning and I'll want feedback if you feel I doing something wrong

I hope we can survive without you ellis . . . You will DEFINITELY be missed.

We'll definitely miss you ellis !!! But, you've left us in very good hands! I'm sure Harpo will do great! She's smart and very tactful. Hopefully the POWER won't go to her head---

That's what I'm afraid of, Elizabeth.

Thanks, girls... I'll see you when I get back!
(actually, I'll see you tomorrow, because I'm not leaving until Saturday. heh heh)

oh, too late . . . it already did!!!

Holy Harpo,,,I only now noticed what you have lost so far!
My youngest son weighs that much....you lost a whole Tanner!

See ya when you get back Ellis,,,we are in good hands with Harpo..

Yeah, I always look at thin women and I say, "hey I used to carry her around on me!!!" And when I get to around 145 pounds lost, I want my mom to hop on my back so I can actually try to walk around again with an extra 145 pounds!!!!

Have fun, Ellis!!

"Holy Harpo"!?!?!? I love it! Can I please steal that? I try to refrain from using profanity, so I use terms like, "fudge brownie". I'm NOT kidding---that is my way of showing surprise, shock and even cussing! "Holy Harpo" is so much classier sounding and so much less binge-triggering!

I do agree that Harpo has done an AMAZING, AMAZING thing with her weight loss. It is hard enuff to lose weight but to do so while battling an eating disorder is truly inspiring. Did you see her before and after pictures?????
Harpo is my hero

Mine, too!

Actually, you're all my heros. You just don't give up, and I love that.

I'm not really here... just ignore me...can't stay away... leaving soon...

I used work in a brewery selling beer,,,USED to as in yesterday...lol And there was a pub that call Swamp Donkey,,,to me that sounded like a *swear* word... your nothing but a swamp donkey...lol

Harpo something that you and your mom can do,,,get dressed up in jeans and white tees...and go get some pics done...and yes even one of her on your back.
