Why the fascination with Kimmer? #5 - Page 14

KissysMom · 10-03-2007, 08:02 AM

Ok so..for real questions here - There are still people over at KK following her program and treating this criminal like some kind of saint? And - Kimmer is still posting on her own website acting as if the KTLA news story never happened? Seriously? LOL~

Although I don't agree that it's a "Pool of negativity", etc... I bet there are a LOT of people who read it because it's incredibly compelling - I'm addicted. There are huge gaps in time when I don't post much, but you can bet your bottom dollar I was checking it every day!

this is very true. The "pool of negativity" comment is everyone fighting with each other. I hate conflict. lol. Doesn't mean I don't want to read that she is finally getting what she deserves.

Its one thing to advise someone on a VERY low calorie starvation diet, but its NOT ok EVER to CHARGE for it. That is insane and she needs to be stopped. I agree 100 % with that.

I still read because despite wanting to pull away, I'm riveted same as anyone else here. lol.

suzanne13 · 10-03-2007, 08:04 AM

Great job everyone! Hopefully the news footage brings more and more of the people still at KK over here.

I would like to suggest that we treat them with compassion, they must be shocked and confused at the developments of today. My grandmother used to say "Tread carefully around a broken heart". That is a bit dramatic, I realize, but you all know what I mean. I was afraid to post here, which is why I picked a new name. I would hate for anyone who needs caring and support to not find it here.

(This is all just for the benefit of the potential newbies. I think all of you are awesome, even the feisty ones!!

Like Julia when I was in article I had to provide before photos, then I was interviewed on the phone, and then sent to a photographer for photos.

I agree.

I am still trying to catch up!

jlshields · 10-03-2007, 08:06 AM

Good Morning! and great work for all involved here who contributed to getting heidi exposed! WTG

I have lots of reading to do to catch up. Visited the kimkins site and can find nothing about the news story. If someone posted it - it was taken down right away. I did find and post the things that kimmer contributed this morning. Last time I was there she was offline and tt is online but no mention at all of the controversy. Very strange. The admins must be working like busy little beavers trying to delete things as soon as they appear.

I have Vista and was able to view it Cheryl. Must be something else.

Yup, I do. And I appreciate your posting this because we may have an influx of newbies over the next few days and they deserve as much support as we can give them.

susique333 · 10-03-2007, 08:08 AM

I wonder how many different colored wigs she wears...maybe theyre better put an APB for her at all area Airports...."This woman may have changed her hair color...be on the look-out..."

Yes, seriously. Latest:

Kimmer replied: "You're a great substitute for Kimmer! I also think the June Bugs would welcome everyone, just be sure to let them know in case they need a head count for an activity or meet & greet room.

We can also plan another one sometime? Good thing about a Vegas weekend is we don't need passports. The holidays are coming so we would plan for after -- maybe next spring or summer? Kimkins Workshops for anyone interested? Cooking demo? Motivational speaker (thinking of Chris Farley on SNL and a "van down by the river")!"

I had to watch it in 3-second snippets due to it going through our corporate network

, then it played again all the way through with no delay.

Yep, she will try to spin it!

Tom had me talk to the magazine reporter and I contacted Cartbabe and a few others and got their information and passed it on to the magazine. They in turn chose who would be in the magazine and on the cover.

bumping because it scrolled
