Kimmer, I know lots of Mary Consultants. Talking the talk is not walking the walk. I bet Mary Kay Ash is rolling in her grave.

And a question. What about all these celebrities she claimed were on Kimkins? Do you think their PR person/legal teams would be interested in knowing the celebrity's names and images are being used to promote a diet and they aren't getting paid anything for it?
good idea!

Worse, recent photographs and videos often shock us. Often we don't realize how our weight has spiraled out of control until we see the images on film. How ironic.

Wow. This is a page turner. If I'm going to finish this e-book by the weekend, I'd better start now.

Sounds like someone is trying to cover the "legal" part of her contract by producing an ebook.

On almost any corner there is a fast food restaurant, doughnut shops or convenient stores stocked with candy, junk food, sugary drinks, etc.

and in the next issue I will provide a map to all of them just for you...FREE OF CHARGE!

My Doctor Says Lose Slower
Introducing the slower but steady plan! Kimkins can be cycled with a higher fat and higher calorie plan. Some people find they are more comfortable using this plan and can stay on target this way.
You may not get the fastest results, but you will still succeed. Just ask us how at Kimkins.com. We are here for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

It reminds me of one of those "special advertising sections" in cheezy womens magazines. You know, like in Women's World.

WAIT...here is the maintenance plan.....its so simple!

Our maintenance plan offers a huge advantage over most plans. We allow a 5 lb span from your goal weight number. It's a good idea to drop to the lower end of your weight loss span first, before you indulge. Then, if a certain food indulgence causes your weight to go over your comfort zone, simply return to a short round of Kimkins until the weight is back to the lower end. Normally this only takes a few days.

GENIUS
