As I’ve mentioned, I also use other names when writing, particularly for men’s magazines. Heidi is an owner of Kimkins.com and nothing more. How do I say this nicely? She doesn’t “care” about Kimkins. Her interests are in other areas entirely. I did not trust Catherine (former partner) and Heidi stepped in as me. She has not seen the news clip but I will be seeing her this weekend.

So why wouldn't the real Heidi have taken a look at the news clip? Why did the real Heidi say "no comment" and high tail it outta there? Wouldn't she have been confused as to why someone would be asking her such strange questions? Her reaction would have been totally different if she had no prior knowledge of the whole mess.
You can never tell enough lies to hide authenticity of the truth.
I so totally agree! If a camera man walked up and shoved his microphone in MY car door (and I was innocent)....my IRISH woulda come out!

WOE: I love Low Carb - You all are doing it so well!

Kiwi - I think you should really start with your doctor or a doctor who specializes in this kind of thing about this.
I know it is hard to go through the threads here trying to find information because I have been struggling with trying to find out what I need to know here, trying to read a lot of threads, etc., so if there are people out there reading this, that know what she needs to do, can you get in touch with Kiwi somehow and help her?
It can be discouraging trying to find the information on your own, and I don't think she has the time right now to spend a lot of time trying to find it. So please, can some people help her find what she needs?

I must be subscribed to every forum you posted your kimmer update. I have gotten over 20 e-mail notications with your post and the kimmer _link_s.
I think we owe it to Kimmer to give her a chance to speak to us about the video clips. It is not big secret that they are out there because you have posted all of them in every _link_. And I am sure there is no way this can be just swept under the carpet. Kimmer will want us to know what she has to say. She will want us to know the truth.
I am sure Kimmer wants to clear things up for those of us who are still here and want to belive in her and this site.
So let's stop posting the _link_s for a few minutes and give Kimmer and or the staff a chance to post to us.
Why would they delete this one? I'm talking it had a shelf life of about 2 nano seconds.

I think Tippy has known this for a long time. I think this is why her emphasis has always been that Heidi has a right to her private life. She wouldn't say that if she thought Kimmer had nothing to hide. Kimmer's success story was the first success story for the Kimkins diet and has always been front page for the diet (until this week! ). It has always been PUBLIC, NOT PRIVATE. It was the selling point for the diet.

the "need for privacy", "it doesn't matter what the founder of the diet did" is a "sweeping it under the rug" tactic.

again, I will say that Tippy tweaked the diet because Kimkins did not work for her. After 2 months she stalled. Just like she stalled on Atkins. as for the cycling.. who knows what the long term effects are? and why is Tippy still having to cycle? does she gain weight when she eats normally? Is this the future for Kimkins dieters? to never be able to eat a normal amount of calories?

better make that a gooooood supplement you take with the kimkins diet.

Mrs. M and ChrisTina, thank you for the welcome!

Kiwi, for the sake of yourself and your family, please make an appointment with a doctor and tell the doctor everything. You cannot go back and change the past but you can begin a more healthy way of life right now.

Hang in there girl! I hope you will get some medical help so you can get healthy. There is lots of support here. You are definitely NOT alone!

And still, this does not address her using Heidi's pictures as HER before pictures. If Kimmer was a different person , then that would make her a liar for using someone else's pictures.

And let's say she really is the woman in the red dress, where are HER before pics???

None of it fits. She is scrambling as hard as she can to get her lies to make sense.
She's going to be doing a lot of scrambling then because I doubt she's going to produce any *sense from any of what she's saying. Still, it sure is funny to watch her try!

The news clip me of the “diet review” done by About.com which also only parrots the anti-Kimmer blogs. No medical review. No impartiality. Hundreds of pro-Kimkins members wrote to Laura Dolson (who was impressed with their intelligence she told me), but didn’t change her review at all.


**snip**
Bolding mine.

Something else I just thought of. "She has not seen the news clip but I will be seeing her this weekend"

I read this as she (the supposed Heidi) knows nothing about it. How is that possible when she (the supposed Heidi) is the one in the clip??? If she (Heidi) was the one who ran from the reporter, then she would know about it, no?

That is just plain stupid on Kimmers part.

Kiwi, a very smart person (I'm sorry I forgot who) posted some very loving and good advice a few hundred pages back forgive me if I misquote but I believe it was..........."feed yourself like you would feed someone you love"

Would you starve your child? or allow your child to go hog wild? eat little to no vegetables?.....No, you would feed your child healthy balanced foods because you love him/her and want them to feel good and be healthy.

Self loathing or self hate is so hard to face.......I have plenty of it myself.......we need to learn to love ourselves

If that's the case , she's exploited Heidi and her relationship with HKD for MANY years now.

I have several friends and have never one time used their name/names on the internet or in business...doesn't make any sense.

This is a load of crap because Richard Simmons allows direct access to himself all the time. Dr. Atkins did when he was alive.

Well, when the website finally falls, Hidey can start a new business making wigs. She can fashion them from all the hair that has fallen out from those who followed her diet for any length of time. I should know, unfortunately. So does SingingLass if memory serves me correctly.

Sooo, what should she call this new biz?
Hairkins club for extreme dieters? Wiggykins? Hair today, gone tomorrow, back again?
