Why the fascination with Kimmer? #6

You know, I wouldn't be one bit surprised to find out the TT was the new secret owner. And Kimmer can just run away to the next scam and TT will be left holding the bag. I smell scapegoat.

Uh, what? So, take the Kimkins plans to your dr and let him tweak them? Wouldn't that be Dockins? Oh, wait. The Dr. most likely wouldn't bother with upping the veggies and calories; it'd be easier to just say ,"Try South Beach".

Yeah.... I am sure she is in there with Kimmer... Maybe she moved in with her and all those adoption kids?

So, rather than request a refund and continue to eat whatever you please, why not request a check up instead? Don't give up so easily! You are worth the effort. You really are. Now, let me ask you this. What will happen to your husband without YOU? And your daughter will always be ridden with guilt for moving so far away. Please don't do this to the people who love you the most. That is just not fair. It's time for you to take action for yourself and your family. There is no junk foods worth dying for. None.

This is the tactic that makes me the angriest! This says "if you can't do this plan, you're weak." You are a bad mother and a bad wife." Throwing in the "you're worth the effort" just re-inforces the notion that if you can't do Kimkins there is something wrong with YOU, not with the plan. Most people who need to lose weight are already running these negative thoughts through their head all day long. That's why they are so vulnerable to someone just reinforcing what they have come to believe about themselves. Gawd! I get so upset by this!

[shawngal]

Add me to the many, the proud, the BANNED!

I wondered how long it would take after my journal posts and a forum post telling members to do the research and stop supporting the fraud. Of coure, it could have been me posting here and doing a post on Kimkins in my blog.

I've filed my 5th request for a refund of my $29.95 but I doubt that will go anywhere. Paypal already turned me down so I'm probably SOL on the money.

Now, where do I get a badge?

Yep, they are unbelievable aver there....
And if she fails at it then what? What will Tippy say then?

[missis36]

Shawngal, welcome to the club, you will find yourself among many who have "been there done that" But at least you are in good company eh? haha

And Gina C has the badges

ETA: Diana Tippy will do what she's always done. She will lie. She will try to motivate by saying that she's done it, when we know darn good and well she hasn't....we've seen here posts here saying she couldn't cut it on KK, and now she mocks others for being like her. It's actually disgusting if you ask me.

Have you tried Topomax? You should find a good neurologist-as a long time migraine sufferer there is no reason to be in pain everyday.

Have you tried any daily preventative therapy? I was getting a migraine daily starting when I was about 13 or so. I started on verapamil about age 15 and take it everyday and now I am down to maybe 1 migraine a month! I still get a lot of regular tension headaches, but nothing compared to the migraines.

I had to go off the verapamil when I was pregnant, and the migraines came back in full force

I swear by the verapamil! My dad takes it as well.

[CarolynF]

Well, obviously KIMMER didn't do the plan for one second. She must be the weakest of the weak, right?

I DO think she gets a real power trip from controlling people's lives and their health. She enjoys seeing people starve themselves (FOR HER)..She is one sick puppy dog, isn't she?

Becky posted on Jimmy's that this new ownership thing is probably a farce..No way would she give up CONTROL to anyone..That's her "thing"..She may be another admin with another name, but it's Kimmer behind the screen.

I'm wondering if you started out just talking about the diet, how it started, and aspects of the site, and THEN do the controversy as another subheading it would pass? Good luck, you're doing a good job with that. Wikipedia always pops up at the top of searches.

Was that TT responding to her? Must be because she really sounds crazy. Why is she assuming that this woman is just using an excuse to eat "JUNK FOOD"??????? That is so offensive. She is just PROVING her total and complete ignorance, over and over again by claiming this diet is healthy for everyone.

FitDay.com - Diet and Fitness journal for Kimmer
For those of you who have not seen this, this is Kimmer/Heidi's Fitday from DEC 2000 to AUG 2007. Please take the time to read each and every one of her entries, Very telling! Compare her calories/carbs with the supposed weight losses on the graph on the bottom of her pages. Look at the great length she went to trick us that her diet made her thin. SO many discrepancies!! Look at how low her calories are THIS year, and she gave us this FitDay link to "encourage" us so that we too could be THIN like her. All we had to do was just read & follow her lead! Compare the weight losses to what she said in her recent KK homepage (the one she deleted) about her starting weight and ending weight. She simply couldnt keep it straight, thank God this was a PUBLIC page! This sick woman put in 6 YEARS of bogus reports on her fitday, I think this speaks mountains about her mental state. This is a SHOUT OUT to any KK members reading this. Go to her FitDay Journal, look at what she encouraged us to follow. Look at the LIES she spoon fed us.

No she can not give up control, that is her livelyhood!!! She is behind the scenes.. there is no TECH guys!

By all means get your badge - but also go sign up for the Class Action Lawsuit.

And sign the petition to have the FTC investigate Heidi/Kimmer/Kimkins

And do a complaint and review at the Better Business Bureau.

Hey everyone - have I missed any actions she can take?
And does anyone happen to have the links for Shawngal?

I have never heard of verapamil. I was going to start taking Topomax once my baby finally weaned which was 2 months ago but the dr really wanted to put me on Zoloft for depression (postpartum issues that just does not want to go away) since I have always refused it before. He was thinking the Zoloft might help with the headaches too but alas they are not. Now I cannot take Imitrex or anything else except T3 which does help take the edge off and keeps me from vomiting. I will not be on Zoloft forever (hopefully) so what are the side effects and experiences from both verapamil and the topomax meds? What do you take for the breakthrough migraines?

READ the entire fitday, took me hours. It has tons of entries that are hers, written very personally. She journals at the top of the page. She can say what she wants, the journal tells it all. The weight graph is most telling and that she cant say was someone elses.

morning all,
new post fromm kk's

Who is Dr. Mark? 0 Minutes ago
Dr. Mark is a Holistic Physician specializing in pain and injury rehabilitation and human performance. His journey into fitness started as a semi professional triathlete competing in 20-30 races per year.

Struggling to turn pro, he sustained a knee injury which was destined to change the course of is life. Western medicine could not find a good answer for the pain. After finding his own “cure” he began a quest to understand the human body’s form and function so he could help others.

Education in personal training, massage therapy and physical medicine eventually culminated in graduation from a four year post-graduate program in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Today he gives seminars internationally, sees patients 3 days a week and has come here to help us, the Kimkins Community.

I had headaches 6 out of 7 days a week for years finally went to a neurologist and was diagnosed with vascular migraines. I am taking Toprol XL 50mg once a day, I have not had a migraine for over 15 months, very occasionally get a tension headache but even those are not as bad. Toprol is actually a beta blocker and is usually used for high blood pressure. I have had no side effects at all and am so releived to be rid of the headaches.

That is such good news!!! I honestly think the headaches are messing with my depression. Is the Toprol something that is dangerous if you accidentally miss a dose? Some of these meds I hear you have to wean off of so you don't have a heart attack??? I'm so forgetful, that would worry me.
