OK...quick follow-up on the WW thing....not sure if anyone posted it on the other thread or not, but Deni posted on ALC that she contacted the editors at WW (I think she did it today?) and said she was one of the girls in the story and provided links to her blog and Christin's.

I do have to admit that "lurking" over at the othe site isn't as exciting anymore as there are very few posts each day....hopefully, that is good news and there are fewer and fewer new people joining or staying.

SL and TT are so CYAing that it is sickening....Even Kimmer has tried to CYA in threads. Too bad there is so much information out there from "Before" that they can't hide or clean up, lol

From TT 5 hours ago:

Yes, yes, cycle it up! Works great! I lost more than half my weight using this method.

"more than half?" Isn't they way I heard it!!

Good deal, CC..It always helps to be one of the important peeps in the story lines..WW should REALLY do a huge SCAM thing to make up for the damage they did by pointing peeps to Kimkins. Can THEY sue Kimmer? I'm betting they can for providing false information to the public..Safe for diabetics! Right!

The link for Epinions is in the quote and here is the link to my review- Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Woman's World Magazine at Epinions.com

I contacted the California Medical Board and the Pharmacy Board today just to speak with them on the issue of the medical advice and diet that Kimkins gives out...but it is not a complaint they handle. In case anyone was thinking along those lines don't waste your time with that....I already did.

Ok, here are the counts from the KK Site a few min ago:

Newbies (7), Boot Camp (2), Work Out Zone (1), Cafe (12), Maint (0), Intro (3), Weight Loss (3), Journals (1), Success (1), Room 4 Guys (2), 50+ (1), International (1), Veg (0), Pers Best (1), Diabetic (0), Health (3), Buddies (1), Addictive Persn (0), Clothing (0), Play Pen (2), and Chat (6). That is a total of 47 people on the KK Site...Take away all the (1) which were me...leaves 39 people....Far cry from 40,000 in June 2007.

Gee Kimmer....you are overpaying your staff!!!!!

Come on over people....we have plenty of room for you!!!!

I loved the part about Christin getting $100,000 if she got "them" on Oprah..LIKE Kimmer would actually show up..Well, if she gets on Oprah NOW (for other reasons), I hope Kimmer
pays up.

I guess after making 2 Mil off of the June sign-ups she could afford to pay her the $1500 a month and give her a new car....and to think TT and SL actually think they are getting something for a great job done...oh wait, with only 39 people left to ban....they are!!

Isn't it kind of funny that "all" of her Admins (previous ones) were smart enough to copy PMs and e-mails and probably threads too? What does that tell you about their confidence level of the diet/Kimmer even when they were following it? And Heidi thought she was smart!!

Wonder what the Newbies think when they go online and only see a few people posting, etc. Maybe they think they just found a new WOE and in on the beginning of it and are sooo excited! Sure hope there are some there that figure it out and do some research and ask for their money back within those first 90 days. Can't wait until that site gets shut down!

It would have never have happened because Oprah dealt with one fraudulent author..James Halloway..remember that? I can't believe that Kimmer even thought that Oprah would approve of her stupid diet...But I'm sure Oprah would have made her come to the studio..
