/shrug

I see lots of results from people that she helped. I've seen pics of her. I see a successful woman who has taken her free advice and made a business out of it. I see a pretty amazing woman who has helped a lot of people, not just in weight loss, but outisde of the 'dieting world' doing other things like adoption, etc.

Dreams · 06-27-2007, 08:12 AM

Even if the pics aren't her, she still knows what she's talking about and still has helped many people. Yeah, it could be considered deceitful or whatever.....but the woman still knows what she's talking about.

Paula Jayne · 06-27-2007, 08:12 AM

I agree she has helped tons of people. THat is great!!!

Nope not slow at my work, how bout you?

Oh yeah I DEFINITELY don't think that is her, unless she had some major reconstructive surgery to her entire face AND body. Not a hater, I liked Kimmer and was disappointed when she left LCF. But I do not believe for one second that that is her.

I don't think she looks 25 in the red dress. I would have guessed 42. I asked my DH and DD how old they thought she was and they both said early 40's.

Paula Jayne · 06-27-2007, 08:13 AM

I agree she is smart and helped tons of people.

In the first you could be your own mother. Resemblance but not exact.

You not only lost weight you lost years.

CARBBABY · 06-27-2007, 08:16 AM

Im jealous that she dont have any wrinkles.

Dreams · 06-27-2007, 08:16 AM

Plus the eye shape is totally different in those last two pics.

Not sure what I think either way BUT the last picture is NOT someone 28ish. That I know for sure.

Me neither. I just find it all strange.

People asked for proof here and she left.

Those pictures don't look anything alike.

Why is she so secretive?

Just things that make you think. And I worry about her diet plan....I looked into it recently and saw a bunch of people posting that they were only eating 700-800 calories a day and trying to exercise and getting lightheaded. THAT worries me. After reading that stuff, I decided it wasn't for me. I have tried super low calorie before and I just gain the weight back. I think for the majority of people, it won't work in the long run.

Just my humble opinion.

Nady · 06-27-2007, 08:19 AM

I remember when she left LCF~ and why~ and under the circumstances, I would have left too! She was always willing to help others do what she did~ she didn't deserve to be attacked just because some people didn't agree with her methods.

And yes, I think the pictures are all the same person.

Really? To me, she looks in her 20s. But I am in my 40s. That may make a difference in perception.

Thats what a lot of people says about Atkins.

Boujie · 06-27-2007, 08:19 AM

When someone questions something, they're labelled a "hater" or "jealous"??

I wonder why she WILL NOT post a current pic. She never has...she has posted a side pic (not a face shot) of someone she says is her, posts a far away pic that she used for years here, but refuses to post a current one?

And got quite nasty with people who asked her to do so....

D0ughB0y · 06-27-2007, 08:20 AM

She left or was banned?

Boujie · 06-27-2007, 08:21 AM

She left I believe.

I'm still barely in my 20's and at 29 I look older than the she does in that red dress pic. I'm totally jealous that she can look like that in her 40's! (if she does)

True. But Atkins didn't work for me in the long run either. Too restrictive for me.

But at least on Atkins you are not eating only 700 calories a day. I saw someone posted that they were only eating 300 a day. That is anorexia to me.

Boujie · 06-27-2007, 08:23 AM

That woman in the red dress is NOT the same woman that she used as her avatar here forever.

No. way.

This is a mystery..Kimmer is a great gal who started Kimkins...was on here for a long time, started her own site, etc..BUT, her new after pictures don't resemble her very much..

You guys are discerning..What do you think?
