I would think so, too.

Can you just email it or does it have to be snail mailed, too? GOOD LUCK!!

Well I figure that I might come out of lurkdom now and again Hey Deni sweety ((HUG)) I wanted to let you wonderful sluthes know that I did hear from Beth Wiseman who is the woman who wrote the article in WW. This is what she said regarding the use of the cover:

"I spoke to the legal department here at Bauer and they are looking into the whole matter, but they don't have any answers at this point and they wouldn't discuss any specifics. I bet they've already asked her to take the image off the site. That’s just a total guess on my part, but I know that people don't always comply when they’re asked to remove an image of the magazine from a website.

I’m sorry that I can't be more helpful, but it's totally out of my hands now."

Sounds to me like they are working on it. I am mailing my C&D to Heidi via certified mail so I can be sure it is received. I also CC'd Mr Teidt with a copy of it... so it's in their hands.

Thanks guys for all the super sluthing today! I'll stop by now and again *WAVES*

I tried to get on yesterday to clarify about my NOT being "PrincessDucky" of the notorious "she's dead' comments about the red dress model (at Kimkins Exposed). NOT ME.

I've been around, though, I've been posting at my blog in solidarity with the Anti-Kimkins folks since September 11 (21 posts all told), and I frequent the other sites and comment. I'm delighted to see the fruit of the fight. I hope Kimkins dot come is "off the air" before this week is done.

I wanted to thank you for your tireless efforts. (Okay, and the entertainment of witty and snarky posters.) I spent an hour looking through the Russian Brides sites, but since I had no posting privileges, I couldn't post the ones I thought were the fakes.

I'm sure the red dress is out there and someone will find it. I am one of those who does not believe the picture at Kimkins Dangers (a great site, not knocking it) is the right one. Even with those freakasoid, pixellated eyes.

The reason I got so ticked and joined in the "take Kimkins down" fight is that *I* saw that story on WW and *I* went to the site and *I* was tempted, oh so tempted, to sign on board. But, I didn't. Ultimately, reading about it and how low, low, low it was turned me off. I think one of the recipes I saw later on only confirmed how icky it would be for me to attempt it. Sorry, I am not eating egg white pancakes, not even if it's the last thing on the menu on the last month of the existence of the universe. Bleh. And that latest one with the beef broth and eggs--yes, I think I may have lost weight just looking at that culinary monstrosity.

So, nice to finally say hello to y'all.

And to all the "refugees"--welcome to freedom.

I've been praying for the folks at Kimkins to see the light and LEAVE, and some of the more fragile spirits--like Kiwi8--I'm praying for you! I want you to get well and enjoy eating healthfully. I really do.

Okay, this is the Princess Dieter of Once Upon a Diet Blog high fiving the rowdy and hilarious and hard-working and "fascinated" crew of LCF. You rule, babies, rule!

Let's hope the Corona fat lady sings very soon..in court...

The Princess --who has done her share of snorting at the hilarity here...and done her share of teeth-grinding at the horrors exposed.

PS: Something is definitely off with the "fawn" posts. The persona changes. And that post with the "like" and "like" Valley talk sounded really fake. People who say "like" a lot aren't usually TYPING it out, too, unless it's for humorous emphasis. I think that post reeks of something..and it's not flowers.

PPS: Woofy, your "butthole" blog post subject line had me guffawing. And, really, how often does one see a post on hemorrhoids in the Anti-Kimkins fight?

PPPS: I dub thee, HoneyBee2 , BARONESS BUSY BEE, for your extraordinary, eye-crossing efforts in the Russian Brides Caper...

PPPPS: Someone really needs to turn this into a non-fiction book. I'm pretty sure it would sell for some nice dough. Diet + Scam + Moolah + Russian Brides + Bald con artist. It's made for a LIFETIME movie, too.
Nice to meet you too
Thank you for your concern and yes I know I have alot of mental emotional work to do on myself, and since this has all come to light for myself, I am really staying concious of my thinking, so this is a good first step....again
Thank you .... Hugs

Didn't see this mentioned anywhere....I saw the Dangers blog about the triangle photoshopped eyes...but tell me, those who have looked at thousands of these pics...these sites are just as questionable as Kimkins. There were several pics used twice--MANY are "touched" up and posed, and they just aren't believable...are they? Sure it proves that Kimmer lifted her success pics, but I doubt the truthfulness of these other sites as well. There's just too many "model" looking girls...so...point being that Kimmer may have lifted the red dress pic, but she didn't necessarily touch it up--could've already been done.

ETA: And how many friggin Elenas and Olgas et al can there really be in the world that happened to sign up for these sites??? I mean, really?

I noticed that the "Compare Us" section has been updated too...

The "one on one" with a certified athletic trainer is gone..

And the "personal coaching by Kimmer" is gone too.

It was there yesterday

There's also a disclaimer that "PM's may be monitored for security reasons"..roflmao! Mkay.

Deni- If you mail this to Becky she should be able to access each success story and the pics by clicking on the Kimkins link under them. That way she can copy them or email them easily. Its worth a try.

Tippy tried to blackmail Melly how? And why?

Oh and did Kimmer explain herself already? What did she say?

Thanks!
Kimmer just claimed (again) that she is not Heidi. Lamest...answer...ever.

Tippy seemed to think the admins here = Ducky (Kimkins Exposed) and said something to the effect of "pull the blog or you'll be reading Melly exposed". I think her reasoning can be found on theTruth's blog, but I don't remember. It didn't make any sense anyway.

Hi Christin
I emailed WW last night in hopes that the recent news report and the fact that the pictures they used were not kimmer would scare/shame them into doing something! Let's hope they will act soon.
Wishing you all the best and thanks for saying hello.

That's scary!! Please be sure to see your doctor and let him/her know what you were eating, calories, etc. Get yourself checked out to be safe. So many of us are doing just that right now.

I just received an e-mail from Heidi/Kimmer/etc. saying "

We don't understand. We would welcome explanation from your attorney."

What's there to understand? REMOVE ALL REFERENCES!

Deni's and Christines are still there. When you click on one success story and then hit the back button back more stories will appear. Several of the Russian brides are there as well.
