Why the fascination with Kimmer? #3 - Page 11

Mimosa23 · 09-22-2007, 03:42 AM

I'm so behind! Just found the new thread, and have 10 pages to get through!

I cannot believe Hideykins thinks "her" new cycling plan will CHA.

The people in the most danger? The ones who have been VLC.

This "new" plan of hers will be like a binge for them. Purge & binge. Binge & purge. Sound familiar?
And the sad part? They don't even realize it.

Once again- I am so thankful & grateful to those who have saved the evidence from her site. She deserves everything she will get.

There are four main purposes to cycling:
1. To keep your body from adapting to a restrictive plan and thus avoid stalling.
2. To keep metabolism cooking along (especially if thyroid problems)
3. To keep your tastebuds happy and avoid binging/cheating.
4. To test-drive a maintenance plan and feel more secure in being able to keep pounds off.

Doesnt this new change suggest that there is something wrong with the Almighty Kimkins Plan???

Remember the phrase...."If it aint broke dont fix it"

I remember Heidi getting quite irritated if anyone veered off and tweaked her plan...she quickly reprimanded them and told them not to call it Kimkins....now it seems she is allowing it to save her ass.

But in reality...it really doesnt matter what they do the the "diet" now...she has their membership money already and can ban them at will....its quite the racket going on over there and the new people joining are none the wiser if they dont do their homework first.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

So while the website still says Kimkins, it is a far different site and has far different recommendations than what was being spouted just a few short weeks ago. Her site has been changed, has had to be changed, because of the pressure of the outcry. Kimmer has been forced to change what she had been spouting, been forced to modify. She is finally having to bow to what others have in mind for her site, she isn't the final word or the leading voice any longer. (Just what it is looking like at this moment.)

Is it me, but I don't see any changes to the "plans" on the KK website. And, popping in to some newbie support threads, I don't see anyone doing anything other than the original plans, either.

I'm just marking my spot so I can go run some errands.

You may now return to regular programming...

This is brilliant and hilarious!!

I was not speaking to anyone in particular, telling anyone in particular 'hey you quit being so demanding'.

The people who we are specifically targetting here, saying 'hey you Tippy, hey you SingingLass, hey you xyz person' (specifically calling their name), saying 'we demand answers, we demand you look at all this information'. Why would THEY come back in here, even if they realize they were wrong, after we have DEMANDED they do so? I am talking about the people we are specifically targetting because they are an admin or whatever.

Or even targetting the masses, saying 'they are some lost souls, they are some desperate folk to wanna lose no matter what, they need to wake up or else!'.

Let it be. I do NOT mean let Kimmer be or that this whole thing is a waste of time, it aint cuz people's eyes are being opened. But trying to be FORCEFUL on people won't work.

Yes yes yes. But the WAY you do it is what I'm saying. Maybe it's just me.... but some of the stuff I have read seems kind of bullyish 'you better wake up or else!'. wth?

Allie,

Since your reply about being demanding and forceful came shortly after my post to sammymomma (which was the only one of it's type at the time), I could have sworn you were talking to me. Sorry if I misunderstood.

sammymomma has said that she would read Becky's blog, which is all I was asking. I will no longer rehash this subject.

Tish

As for people still involved in Kimkins apologizing.. I'm not holding my breath. Many people have left KK and apologized and they have been welcomed by many forums across the web. At this point, with all the information readily available about Kimmer/Heidi's scams, there is no excuse for remaining her loyal servant and I won't be buying their apologies so quickly anymore, should they ever come.

I dont undestand this thinking???How come it is "illegal" to have my own thoughts? This is an open forum right?

Look in the Challenges forum. The new admin Othilia is experimenting with a cycling plan and is looking for volunteers to guinea pig for the experiment-oops I mean challenge.

ZAKLY!

It's all clear to me now.

lisabinil · 09-22-2007, 07:11 AM

You know there was a reason I didn't wear stretch pants when I weighed 287 and boy am I glad I didn't.

There is so much creativity here.

Better than the Sunday funnies.

Just checking in to mark my spot. Have to leave the house today and I just know that there will be about 20 pages to catch up on when I get back!

Maybe more since it is a weekend. There are not enough hours in they day to keep up with this and have a life too.
