Why the fascination with Kimmer? #3

And, think of the people coming here fresh from KK. They need to feel welcome. If they see these types of pix, they could think we're just like HER or they could feel as though we're mocking them right along with her.

This is what I meant to say.
I'll second this.

*raising hand* Happened to me last Dec. after doing KK by the "ebook" LOL. Was uninsured, too. OUCH. Upped my fats ever since and haven't had that problem, but that was painful, to say the least...

The plan I used to be on; "Lean For Life" had a very specific metabolic adjustment period of 14 days and 3 days of "Free Meals" at the end of every 4 week cycle. The 14 days are very specific about slowly adding in different amounts of foods. This plan is a ketogenic low fat, moderate carb program, appx 100 grams of protein everyday; I ate 70 grams of carbs and I was in deep ketosis. That plan states that if you skip these phases, you will do harm to your metabolism!!!! You can't just jump from kimkins to atkins like that!!! The writers of the program even warn about trying to eat fat free for the 3 free meals stating that some people will have issues with their gall bladder if they don't do these three "prep days" . So they are playing around with people's lives by willy nilly suggesting things!!! I sooo want that place shut down!!!!

I am a lurker here but I had to jump in with a new duck avi to show my support for the cause!
I have read almost every post and I am still shaking my head.

Wow.

...

Yes WE are her size but we are NOT the same as her. Would you ever speak to someont the way she has (for years) ?? Of course NOT !!!!

Her size is NOT anything to be embarrestest about... (we have been there and a lot are STILL there).

This is NOT NOT NOT about size... its about a women who said she is !!8 pounds and LOOKS DOWN ON THOSE WHO ARE NOT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is also about a mentally ill person, admittedly a very clever and intelligent person, acting out HER frustrations with herself, her inability to lose weight, and also spoken biting putdowns in an alcoholic haze. I would hope none of US fit those criteria. The ducks are too cute and comical, but many of the photoshopped pix are cruel and comical. There is a difference. Well, I'm writing it off to the weekend and blowing off steam. Hope you all feel so much better.

[Purple Sage]

Yeah, while these pictures are funny, it is getting to the point that others might think we are an unkind bunch of people....and we are not....to any KK survivors, the humor in this thread is just having some fun, but it is pushing the line as far as I'm concerned becuase it doesn't present the image that we want to. This needs to be a welcoming place for people who are hurting right now...and I know a lot of us feel very vindicated about all of this but really, don't push the envelope to far or the admins here are going to have to clean up a mess and we might lose the openess to talk about all of this here.....

Thanks for the tip!

Sorry if this has already been pointed out; just now catching up.
I see the SNATT shirts & mousepads are no longer offered. Hmmm...wonder why; CYA anyone?

Let's back off on the photoshopped pictures and stick with the facts at hand.

This thread needs to continue to be here for support.

While I admit to having had my share of fun in these threads and finding humor in the pix, part of me also feels really guilty and bad about it. Sigh

I totally disagree with your statement above !!!!

-What about those who have listened to her remark "how they have been cheating" because they never lost a pound a day.

-What about those that "tried her plan" but couldnt continue because she said "they were too weak"

-what about those who came to this web site looking for help but instead found this women that was arrogant and accused of being "stupid".

-what about those who paid their money to a site that made so many promises and were banned.

-what aabout those that are following a "legit" weight loss program and she continued to call it names and made them feel foolish.( Fatkins... which she is using now)

-what about those who got sick from "Her" program because they BELIEVED she really did lose the weight.

-what about those who have listened to her for years "spewing" her words.

(yes its "whom")


I am so tired of of this "poor kimmer" attitute because she is over weight".

Is she the only one ? Would anyone else here do what she has done? Could any of you say the things that she has said to posters?

Yes, she is over weight.... but why are we being "silenced" with our opinion and why can't we say anything negative? This is starting to sound like her board where we are only allowed to say "certain" things.

Yes... Yes... yes... some of the things posted may be sitting on "the line", but does anyone remember what this is about?

She "shut" everyone up for years and now we can finallly speak our minds. Your are shutting us up JUST LIKE SHE DID FOR YEARS !!!!

We have had it THROWN IN OUR FACE how she is 118 ponds and we could be too if we follow her plan. If we don't... we will be fat forever !!!

I'm sorry to be so mean but I will NOT back down because I may hurt her feelings. What about all of those out there who felt like "failures" because she said so?

(and just to let Miss Heidi / Kimmer know.... I am at goal weight following a "sensible diet" . Thank you Dr.A !!!

This is very well said too. This whole thing is SO DAM DEEP! jeez.

With all due respect to heavier people, I think they are taking the Hidey comics/jokes way to personal. It is not about being fat it's the juxtaposition of her comments and the way she looks. I'm sorry, but even without the creative cartoons, in light of what has developed here, her statements are pretty hilarious! How many times have you sat here and read the thread and there is some statement that Hidey has made that you just shake your head, spit your beverage all over your computer and think, you have got to be joking!!!The visuals are an added bonus!

IMHO Heidi/Kimmer deserves everything she is getting - whether it be cartoons, pictures depicting her, statements, etc. She deserves NO sympathy from any of her victims.

This has nothing to do with any of us (whether we are overweight or thin). It has to do with just her. She has deceived all of us and continues to do so.

So please don't take it personally.

I would gloat, but I'm thinking now we're going to begin seeing masses of them ending up in ER with screaming gallbladder pain because they are going to think it's ok to add fat back into their diets and those poor, unused gallbladders full of sludge are going to be revving up and....

Personally, I think things are just going to get MUCH worse in the Kimpound.

I wrote the original post early this morning after about 3 hours sleep.

You are absolutely right. If people who have been following 300-500 calories try to cycle, they very well may end up in the hospital.
If it does happen- let's hope it's for gallstones and not something much worse.

We have to be able to look at ourselves and say "we want to lose weight.... AND WE DO IT !!!!!!

It may only be a pound a week, or a month ,or even ever Other Month.

This doesn't have anything to do with having "PROBLEMS". We ALL have them, and we don't treat others the way she did/has !!!

She threw it in our faces for years and now it is time for us to let her know that "she can't FOOL us any longer".

No, I don't want to redicule those at her weight... but they are NOT, NOT NOT doing and saying what she IS doing and HAS done for years.

For those at her weight... she told them that they were cheating on plan because they weren't losing" she asked for their menu and after it was given... she told them that they LIED. MY GOD..they were telling the truth.

Another fabulous point. I'm so MIXED UP DAM!!

[jenna...]

No guilt here over the laughter and pictures.

I'm making fun of the person.

She scammed me by saying she lost weight and kept it off, I believed her and lost money, a bit of hair and had a nasty gallbladder incident. She's at the very least a Liar, a conartist, a fraud and morally bankrupt. I'm also sure that her 'mental illness' is just to stay on our tax dollars and frankly she's gotten enough of a free ride. I want my next license plate made by Ms. Heidi.

[AllieCat0817]

The whole thing makes me want to cry. Seriously. Laughing at the pix, enjoying seeing her 'get hers', feeling bad about it, all the folk she scammed and hurt, all the hurt feelings, how fat and miserable she is, just the whole thing is SAD.

Thank you mods for letting this convo occur - all of these things needed to be said.

Who she is just makes me very very sad.

I can see both sides. She just never thought (or cared) about being caught.

Payback's a b*tch.

Wow.

Welcome Ketosis, glad to see you here.......just a question though, are you aware that the duck is "the good guy?" Your avatar is "Ducks eliminated", if you are pro-duck, you should have a pro-duck avatar, not a anti-duck avatar.....unless of course I am taking it wrong. If you need to find postive ducks, I can lead you in the right direction.....
Hugs...

I know what you mean, Allie. I've done my crying and now I just want her arrested and put in jail. Just go away already so we can move on and heal.

this site has everything, everything, everythling, (incase you didn't hear me) that you could want to lose weight.
The members will support you ( NO MATTER YOUR SIZE OR PLAN ).


No, not every plan is for everyone, but you will find one that works for you here.

I will not look down on other plans and I don't think others will either. I was just sick (for years) hearing that if it wasn't "HER WAY WAS THE ONLY WAY".

(Sorry KIMMER... you were rude then (read my plea to " general board") and yoiu are STILL rude NOW.) Karma? Is that whats it called?

It is time to stand up and support ANYONE that wants to lose weight.
YES ,,YES YES, Even those on "her" plan. We should help them with their transision to a Healthy plan. I'm all for it and I know you are too.

(again spelling and grammar will probably send you over the roof.. ignore) please

Excellent post. I was just thinking today that if HER plan is the one and only - then why isn't she following it herself? After seeing the PI pictures - it is very obvious that HER plan doesn't work (especially in the long term). Now you also have to add to equation the fact that she had stomach stapling or GBP - can't remember which one she had. That didn't even encourage her to continue HER plan. Then she has the nerve to belittle people into believing they are/were "weak" because they couldn't stay on HER plan. What is wrong with this picture? Also consider the fact that her belittling took place before she decided to charge for HER plan - knowing full well she herself couldn't follow it.....

And now i'm feeling guilty cuz i used to get so PIZZED at Cheryl for not eating enough and for thinking K was a kewl chick! I lost my cool with you more than once chickie. SORRY. jeez.

I haven't posted about Kimmer of Tippy for a few days because it bothers me when I see other people making fun of Kimmer because she's bald. My niece, who just turned seventeen, was born with alopecia and I know how hard it was on her and at times, still is, when people made comments about her wearing a wig
I was scammed by Kimmer with her diet and plan when I joined her site after she split from lowcarb friends.
I was also scammed by Tippy when she had the fundraising event for Kimmer's imaginary foster boys. Tippy was snarky when I asked her where the money went.
These two women deserve everything they have coming to them and more!
I guess the point of my post is...uneasiness when people make fun of Kimmer for being bald. I just know that it was and sometimes is, hard on my niece when people tease her. I realize that my niece is not Kimmer, thank God. It just makes me
I hope ya' all understand what I'm trying to say.

AllieCat - I'm eating about 12 brussel sprouts now!!!! I've gained 10# as well!!!! Now don't get me wrong --- I'm going to get those added pounds off - but will do it by eliminating ice cream, cookies, potato chips, etc.

[AllieCat0817]

Lynn I know exactly what you mean.

And Cheryl you are TOO funny girl lol.

[Carolina Rose]

I apologize if I offended anyone with my picture post back on page 12. The pictures are of Kimmer; the words are from Kimmer. I just put them side by side.

I didn't mean to come across as mean or rude, but it's the truth and the truth is what should be on the Kimkins homepage, not the lies currently there.

Again, I apologize. I won't do it again. Promise.

ETA: Oh, yeah, and I added a mallard in there. hehehe

I agree with you (100%).
I don't have a "ducky avatar" but (you do !!!)

Yes, I am for the KK surviviors and want them to know that they
"CAN come her for support",. My 'God... losing weight is NOT easy but it CAN be done (in a safe way).

A lot of us have been here for years listening to her(Kimmer) "spew" how we are not doing it right". I'm done and I'm sure others are too. This is NOT Kimmers board and we are looking forward to it getting back to a "weight loss board"

Absolutely... we will welcome the KK people here. NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON ever said anything differently.

This thread is about bringing attention to "what she really is".
We DO WELCOME ALL KK people here ,and we'll show them that its NOT THEIR FAULT THEY FELL FOR HER DIET" !!!!!

Should we make fun of her.... maybe.. maybe not.
Should we make her feel like she made us.... ABSOLUTELY !!!



Our purpose to get as many as we can to this site and show them that they don't have to stave and HARM their bodies to lose weight.

They are NOT going to pop into #3 of the thread and hopefully they will read from the begining. (If they do ...they still know that we ALL mean well !).

This has been going on for a very long time (even
