I am totally proud and amazing of all our duck-tectives here..

We are indeed fighting for truth and HONESTY and health in the LowCarb community.

Tippy has absolutely NO business giving weight loss advice. She is not a professional and by perpetrating a fraud, might find herself with big fines or in jail. She is crazy to stay there in my opinion.

Kim: So sorry about your mom's death..Hugs to you, dear.

No time to really dig around and think about this, but I ran across a couple of sites promoting Kimkins which seem to be authored by people whose first language is not English. For example, from "whatiskimkins" dot com - Kimknins Diet: A Complete Review
-

Many are enthrall in being beautiful and sexy. Everybody craves for a well-built or attractive body. Our social media such as TV, Radio & Internet has become very resourceful regarding humans health. I seen hundreds of TV shows and listened to pod casts which has a common general subject – Weight Loss.

Now people often search for “How to lose weight” in search engines like Google & Yahoo. They are immediately bombed with thousand of pages which usually talks about either expensive diet pills or Exercise books that you will need to buy! However my site is totally free and all the advice and resources that I provide is completely FREE.

I was seriously laughing out loud, having just seen the Borat/Kimkins blog earlier today! Does that sound Borat-like or what? Or maybe just a poor web translation? Some of the usage gaffes make me think a person wrote it that way in their non-native language as opposed to a translation bot.

Then I ran across a review of Kimkins on a site called "Pictures of Bulgaria." It's a big commercial for Kimkins, which I thought was interesting, since I bet some of those fake pictures are of Bulgarian women. "Pictures of Bulgaria." Made me go HMMmmm.

On the first one of these, links to "Kimkins Scam" and KTLA Uncovers Kimkins Fraud" and links like that run down the right sidebar.

Yeah, we had a discussion about that back in thread # 1.
I think that's the guy who offers to write reviews for money and his own ad is atrocious. Van Wotter or something like that?
Pretty awful huh?

Thanks for bringing it up again! Some of this stuff is just so funny!

Which diet best lawsuits your need?
Well Iodine feel it is safe to presume everyone who desires to cut back on nutrient and diet, is attempting to lose weight and pare up in some manner.

Um....well I can think of one diet that best LAWSUITS....ROFL!!!

marymc · 10-07-2007, 02:21 PM

Stardust, you are much classier than me! I NEVER dress up to go to the grocery store and I rarely wear makeup there either. I really don't think anything was meant by this, but you're right, generalizations are never a good idea, otherwise I can only imagine what people would think of me, why considerin' where I'm from and all!!

It's so funny what you said about fashion in "Europe", I guess it depends on where you go and where you live, but I can tell you, that we - where I come from in germany - we even dress up to go grocery shopping. I tend to be careful with "they" and "we" statements, and having been to at least 20 different countries in Europe I still would never categorize.

P.S.: Would you like to see a picture of me in my 80's shorts and red flower in my hair?

Does she get some kind of sick thrill out of knowing her followers are getting sick, while she eats sugar cookies with sprinkles.

There's a Susan Powter thread on the main forum and this brings to mind "STOP THE INSANITY PEOPLE!"

"Re:BRICKHOUSE Survivors, We AINT Givin UP...... 12 Hours, 25 Minutes ago
LISAinTN, Seen, whitney_brooke,

I have been lurking in the shadows of all of this bullsh&*&*&t waiting for all of you holier than thou little saints to get a life. However, I could stay away no longer. It truly amazes me how all of you come to the website with the most POSITIVE FEEDBACK amongst each other and attempt to spew your idiotic OPINIONS about Kimmer. As we have said before, we are GROWN A&& WOMEN who have paid their own money to use this website. We are and were not ever among the dumb and stupid few or many who cut their calories below 1000 or even 500. If you did not notice before, we all LOVE FOOD and are losing in a normal matter. Now, if you all happened to be among those DUMMIES, (for lack of a better word) who were doing these acts, well there lies the problem. Sweep around your own front door before you come and try to sweep around ours!!!!

If you all did not have the gumption or will power to stick with the diet as it is written in the foodlist, first 2weeks, etc. then blame yourselves and stop trying to look for a scapegoat to blame for your health problems.

You see, I DID take this diet to MY doctor and she approved of this, as a matter of fact she's doing it herself and she is an internal medicine physician. So please go post on someone elses forum that cares what the heck you think.

Oh, and by the way, are you all that shallow and naive to believe everything you read? It surely seems that way. I wouldn't doubt it if some of you have copies of The Globe, National Enquirer, Star and OK magazines sitting on your coffee tables. You see, chickens cannot give birth to people, just like Kimmer nor Lameke's Brickhouse cannot MAKE you all consume an unhealthy 500-1000 calories a day.

I have never posted such a long reply, but I couldn't hold back on this ridiculous rant from you all.

As for Lameke's Brickettes, love ya like play cousins. TTYL

Love, Ney~"

Here's the quote

"Now she wants to include some kind of exercise for Boot Camp, but isn't sure how. It's been years since she joined a gym. After reading a blog article by KimATC, she learns any movement is better than none so she decides to start small:

Both of her kids are in soccer so she walks with moms at the field during scrimmage.
Housework was never her favorite, but she tries vigorous vacuuming, bathtub scrubbing and mopping. Predictably, she's sweating in only 5 minutes!
The next day she drags out some old exercise DVDs and try to follow for 10-15 minutes. Harder than it seems, but it's pretty fun (although she's glad no one can see her!)"

LosingToLive · 10-07-2007, 02:39 PM

Kat, I'm so sorry about your mom.

I haven't seen any of the photos from the KK site, so what I did is print them off and tape them around my screen. I found this to be much easier than flipping between screens.
The red dress photo has always been burnt in my brain, we knew it was fake.

Ok... back to serching.

This is my favorite;

"Bashes it do any sense to believe that you could lose 10 lbs of fat in a hebdomad when you cognize that it can't be done, at least not in a healthy way?"

marymc · 10-07-2007, 03:03 PM

Exactly! I SWEAR I saw that Marisol on one of those two main sites we are all looking at.

Super Shy Owners? What a ridiculous comment.

Those words are simple enough, but translate ""Bashes it do any sense"
