Perhaps you would feel more comfortable with the idea of having someone with a MySpace page contact him through his MySpace site?

Or simply call and ask to speak to him?

If it was really Tippy or Heidi answering, I think the response would have been a little different than the one he sent, don't you? Probably more along the lines that he'd already researched it and was confident that this was a great program to be involved with, and that he'd been warned about the haters and their negativity and wasn't too worried about them.

Food for thought, anyway....

yes, the are migraines. Advil only works on my daily headaches "enough" to help me function. For my girls it gives them a bit of relief I believe but that may be due to the fact that when they hit, they go right to sleep and sleep it off. I on the other hand have a Very hard time falling to sleep. Tylenol is a joke...like a sugar pill.

Me, either. And what about medical history? Is he asking about already diagnosed conditions and taking that into account? That gatorade thing is scary.

Most of them may fall into the same trap that I did. I didn't really know about the other sites and that there were places like this until I had already signed up at KK's.

Yes it is. I have had WLS surgery and if I drank Gatorade I would get ill from dumping syndrome because of the sugar. It's similar to a hypoglycemic attack.

Hopefully he'll see and understand what's been going on, and how it will effect the future of KK, and his own liability should he continue to be an adviser there.
he will learn!

Migraine sufferers

I'll keep this on-topic - Doesn't Kimmer give you a migraine?!

OK. I posted this late in the last thread, but it may bear repeating. I used to suffer from migraine headaches 2-3 times per week. It was worse in hot weather. Anyway, since my headaches did not seem to be triggered by TOM or certain foods, I began reading up and researching what caused them on my on. (my doctor is wonderful, but she just kept giving me Imitrex or Zomig and telling me to reduce my stress level)

After connecting other symptoms like leg cramps to the times when I would get migraines, I decided that a vitamin/mineral deficiency was at the root of my headaches. For the past 2-3 years I've taken calcium, magnesium and potassium everyday religiously. I don't recall having a migraine since I began this regimine. FWIW - this has helped me tremendously! I did discuss it with my doctor, as I would advise you to do. Don't just take my word for it. I'm no Dr. Mark, after all!

And, btw Kimmer gives me a figurative migraine only!

No, actually contact through myspace wouldn't be any better since anyone can start a page with someone else's name.
I'm 99.99% convinced, just got to get that last little inth, YKWIM?

Actually, nsaids are the most widely recommended for orgasmic migraines.

They've already found that other meds do little for these types of migraines.

From personal experience , I can offer a VERY "plausible answer" which may provide explanation for the question regarding Tippy showing last online as of this very morning at 6:21. One does not have to be signed up to read the forum postings, much less to have a record of what time one comes in to view the forums and the postings, certainly even without membership! It appears likely that she is reading the other forums being posted across the Internet that are openly anti-Kimkins and early this morning one had a link to this specific forum. (Which one escapes me at this moment, but I could check back in my history and provide this, to show you how it works, if necessary and if there is some question, for clear example). I know this because I had not EVER been here before, even to look around, never was familiar with this site! So I clicked the link provided, and lo and behold, immediately arrived in here to read the latest page posted! This was at 6:31 in the morning, today. Then I continued to read the 15 or so pages previously posted for this forum at that time. And a few other forums, and their postings. A couple of hours later, I came back in and decided to join up, and then signed up for becoming a member, at which time I noticed that my initial (NON-member) "lurking" showed that my "last visit" was still showing at 6:31 (WITHOUT a member user name, and WITHOUT any password)! Naturally, I was rather startled to see that my "starting time" of being a member was subsequently posted for 6:31, even though it was considerably later when I actually signed up. Therefore, I would surmise that the party in question did likewise, and without being able to POST, just came in to VIEW the postings, and that it all is linked to her computer to accurately show the last VISIT. This viable theory could in principle be tested out by using another computer, too, I would imagine?
