While I did not like having details like that displayed on this thread repeatedly, I do now understand your motives and intentions and I hope you will accept my sincere apology.

I was wrong. I am very sorry.

Thank you! Funny enough, that's the article I'm in the middle of reading. I'll be back when I'm finished, as I'm sure I'll have further comments. Sheesh, Kimmer!

Jeanessa, has anyone asked the sons ex girlfriend if the woman in the "vintage" blouse is related to Kimmer or is an old picture of her? That was the only picture where the features seemed similar and was somewhat convincing.

I just saw the picture today of the girl in the red dress that Heidi claims to be.
and........oh my god that iS SO NOT her.
you can post that if you want.
even if Heidi would lose all that weight her face wouldnt look like that girls.
Jeanessa, does Tyna have any family albums with pictures of Heidi in them? sure would be nice to have more pictures of the real Kimmer to put up

especially if she had dates, too. I've always wondered if Kimmer ever lost the weight she said she did.

Did Tyna say anything about Heidi/Kimmer having gastric bypass surgery?

I tried finding it also with no luck.

One interesting quote though: Someone on his forums is stating that anyone that did "kimkins" ends up with "KKPTST...Kimkins Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome" I thought this was really a great way to express how people feel coming away from Kimkins. I have never done "kimkins", but did take Atkins to places it should have not gone, and I emotionally burnt myself out, so I can imagine how one would feel if they PAYED to be abused by a diet, and then feel like a failure. I am looking forward to you getting what you deserve, Kimmer, and I hope it hits you hard.

Oh. My. Goodness.

This was posted this morning on KK:

"KIMMER, The Saint, The Legend!

Dear sweet, precious, generous Kimmer,

There are no words to thank you enough for being so sacrifical for what YOU have done to help rid the world of obesity in a safe, loving and empowering manner for people.

You gave us the tools to not only succeed safely, but the true belief that when we work diligently and follow the plan and take our multi-vitamins, change our sedentary way of life, drink lots of water and check with our doctor before starting any plan that our lives can and will be better.


Thanks to you sharing your knowledge and personal experience with the world... we now are FREE!

you are a saint, a legend in the eyes of millions of people. It hasnt been an easy road, but yet you remained strong to make sure people found the answer they have been searching for... YOU are a saint and we thank God in the heavens for you, hugs.

You are a gift that God bestowed upon the world and I am grateful to him forever for now our prayers are answered.

God bless you Kimmer for all you have done and for all you will continue to do.

You empowered us and now we stand STRONG as individuals and as a family on kimkins that is unbreakable, hugs

love you forever and a day"

I just want to mention it doesn't hurt to email other websites to let me know of recent developments... for example, I found this (I hope it is ok to post) Kimmer created the Kimkins program to deal successfully with her own weight loss problems and they are now in the process of redeveloping their section on kimkins.

Doodle ~ that has got to be sarcasm.

I can't imagine anyone, even at Kimkins, (well, other than Kimmer herself) who could write such a thing and expect to be taken seriously.

Is the author a long-time poster?

The sad thing is...it is NOT sarcasm. She has over 1200 post there. I don't think I ever saw her here.

Doodle! You cut it off. Didn't it end with Love, Kimmer, I mean Love, Anon hehe

You know she wrote that folks...it's too much like kimmer.

Now as for the Dateline investigation....reporting what you read on another forum (this is to Jimmy) Isn't fact or proof. And let's face it guys if Dateline was investigating would they tell us? I don't think so, because what happened in the last few posts would happen....like reporting it all over so that Heidi is fully aware not to leave her house. So I'm just saying I'm not gonna get to excited till I see it on the show. Sorry to be a downer...but I just don't think because it was on another thread that makes it true.

That sock puppet deserves, uhmmm, some extra special Febreze.

Being that this is Rosh Hashana, and I will be in shul in about 90 minutes to pray to the real G-d, the deification of Kimmer is particularly offensive to me. I will, however, comment that there has been a lot of research into the Stockholm Syndrome, and if this post is neither sarcastic nor a Kimmer opus, we might want to add this into the list of diagnoses.

No, I really think this is a real person. There is a picture of her. It's bizarre I agree, but I don't think it's Heidi!

Well, I am just flabbergasted. She obviously hasn't ventured out of Kimkinsland for a very long time.

Tyna sent me two messages last night. I had asked her to come here and read some of the posts.

Quote:
"This is the first message im reading.
I did go there and please tell everyone thank you.
I am glad that I have made you all so happy and relieved
that you dont have to wonder anymore if this is a scam or not.
Im glad this has helped you all even though it scares me.
I was going to register on that site but I was kind of leary.
I also saw on the kimkins controversy that someone is wondering if I had a vandetta.
you can post this if you want because when I saw it I tried
to post a comment twice and it didn't post for some reason.
but anyway....
I knew about this website like a year ago but I thought maybe this time this is for real just maybe she is begining honest about something ...so let it be known if I had a vandetta I WOULD HAVE warned all of you along time ago.
Also that I didn't go to you guys you all came to me asked me the questions and I had the opportunity to be honest about something I was asked about and knew something about.
but again Im glad you all are happy and feel better."

Yes Doodle. You re 8 lbs from goal and a huge hater. Why are you like that? Whatever. Someone on another board posted something about "I thought that 5 yr olds weren't allowed to use the site even if they used a phone book to reach the keyboard" That made me giggle because think about it. In an actual debate (think political now) How many times do you see someone say "Whatever." Or "You're just jealous" Or my personal fave..."Why don't you just go eat some lard tubby." This is the sign of an under developed mind. IMHO.


ETA: Tyna is amazing. I love her to pieces. And like Jeanessa, anyone messes with her, they shall mess with me! She didn't have to help us and I'm so glad she did!!! We do need to do something nice for her when this is all over!

This is the second message that I got from Tyna. I had asked her if she thought that the press release that was attributed to Dennis Sharp was written by him. This is her response.

"Yes I would like it very much if you would say that I honestly believe from the bottom of my heart that Dennis DID NOT write that or do I think he even knows that his name is involved in her business."

Well that would make sense. Heidi is using names of all of the people she's ever met just to perpetuate this scam. And yet there are still followers. It boggles the mind!
