Ooooh...Kimmmer...or someone posting as Kimmer just responded to that post about Jeanessa!

"My former business partner, Catherine MacDonald, took backup copies of all data before she left a year ago, which sounds like theft to me.

It's my understanding she has posted in her blog (or her husband's) that she would make the names/Paypal email addresses of members during her partnership available to anyone, any attorney. She is mad she was not a partner when the magazine cover came out. She was a partner from April-September 2006.

Sweet, huh? Again I ask -- raise your hand if you want to be business partners with Catherine. And she wonders why I didn't trust her?

Her website is Simply Brilliant Solutions Ltd. - Web Design and Development for Your Small Business. - Home (not really LOL) and her email is xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxhis e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it if anyone would like to share their opinion of her broadcasting their Paypal email address to the public.

Jeanessa is a banned Kimkins member who is very busy wreaking her revenge."

Heart flutters here too.

And it took over a year for my hair to be normal again.

Not much over there left....really, really dead. Occassionally someone posts a good-bye. A few newbies wandering in...poor souls.

Not like last night's fireworks. Now THAT was enertainment!
Darth V. That's freaking awesome! Oh and btw, welcome

Riddle me this....if Heidi/kimmer has never read any of the stuff out here, how does she know who Jeanessa is? Hmmmmmm? Another lie. But that's to be expected!

She suggested that anyone wanting to low carb find out how to do it right. Her heart rate is slow, but her Dr attributes it to her age and the fact that she exercises. She has pain in her chest, has had heart tests, and the Dr believes that the pain in her chest is her esophagus being affected by her rapid weight loss, along with other organs being displaced because of such quick weight loss. She feels that by following the Kimkins diet, she has suffered from anorexia, and her body is starving for nutrients. Her Dr will be doing further tests to see if she has done any damage to her heart.

She is one sweet girl

Frightening! Truly frightening. I wonder if Kimmer ever worries about being a source of something this awful. After Christin's vid tonight, I just think this is relevant.

That's my $.02 worth
Kimmer lacks any moral compass, thus stuff like this just roll off her radar as if they don't exist....she's doesn't care because she has no conscience!

I'm having a hard time understanding why or if Kimmer dared sue, what grounds she would use and whom she would sue? Harassment? Lemmesee - did or did not she ban unsuspecting PAID lifetime members, whose cause was taken up by the as-yet-unbanned? Who was harassing whom? Who was reading private PM's? Which lawyer, after seeing the mess that the Kimkins site has devolved into, would risk his professional standing to touch it for less than $1,000,000 cash upfront? IOW, they might risk it for cash upfront (gotta be realistic here - after all, some lawyers earned THEIR reputations as well ), but no one would risk a contingency basis. And somehow, I can't see Heidi/Kimmer letting go of all that lovely loot to protect HER "reputation."

And the irony is - this is a FREE website. Where are the rich deep-pockets to sue? Not the members, who created the Fascination thread. Not the admins, who struggled mightily to keep us on topic. Gonna sue Netrition maybe, who didn't utter a word (at least, in public.)
LAWYER: Yer Onner, the defendants are as follows: Ducky ...
JUDGE:Stop right there. You want to sue a DUCK?
LAWYER: Yessir, at least 30 or 40 of them.
JUDGE: Of all the featherbrained suits ...Case dismissed. And your client pays court costs! <BANG!>

Hi Dottie! Just wanted to tell you that this site is wonderful! I found you through Kimkins research, and have made it a "home away from home", though I don't have to leave home to visit.

The forums are fantastic with a lot of beautiful souls. I love how so many are willing to share their findings on the things they try. It really helps to make better informed decisions about my diet choices when I can read about those who have already been there. And I look forward to sharing my own.

The support here is phenomenal! I am glad I found you all.. I still have 50 or so pounds to go(my highest was 40 pounds more than I am now).. It has been a tough on again and off again road, but I know this forum will be a great help in achieving my goal and maintaining once I am there.

Heidi, I see how you could get confused about my actions.

However, let me point something out to you.

Revenge is defined as:

1. to exact punishment or expiation for a wrong on behalf of, esp. in a resentful or vindictive spirit: He revenged his murdered brother.
2. to take vengeance for; inflict punishment for; avenge: He revenged his brother's murder.

Justice is defined as:

1. the quality of being just; righteousness, equitableness, or moral rightness: to uphold the justice of a cause.
2. rightfulness or lawfulness, as of a claim or title; justness of ground or reason: to complain with justice.
3. the moral principle determining just conduct.
4. conformity to this principle, as manifested in conduct; just conduct, dealing, or treatment.
5. the administering of deserved punishment or reward.
6. the maintenance or administration of what is just by law, as by judicial or other proceedings: a court of justice.
7. judgment of persons or causes by judicial process: to administer justice in a community.
8. a judicial officer; a judge or magistrate.

I am not 'very busy' taking revenge out on you.

I am 'very busy' seeking justice for myself and everyone else who was scammed by you.

He said it's not uncommon and he's not concerned at this point, but if they're still up in 3 months he'll order more tests. Here's the thing: as soon as I got off the phone with him my first thought was, "Oh good! Now I can go back on Kimkins for a few weeks and lose those last 13 lbs!" (I gained 5 back when I started eating more.) Now how stupid is that? But it really is a temptation. It's seductive. I just listened to Christen's podcast and it made an impression, but still... I never thought I would have to talk myself into eating. I never had that problem before.
Just had to stop reading for a minute to say I understand all too well about having to talk yourself into eating.

And I was never that way until after Kimkins. A couple months later- that lousy mindset is still there
