Well ladies thanks for the fun. And before anyone gets angry, all we did was post links to the info on the net. No swearing, no insulting just presenting the points. But I hope to god someone got screenshots as that was "seen" worthy!
Well done ladies!!! ![]() |

Recent KK Post
This just posted over at KK's:
"Message: Attention, ADMINS: DO NOT DELETE! You need to know that by deleting this, and banning members who point out the truth about the crimes and offenses committed by Kimmer/Heidi Diaz, you have become a party to fraud, as an accessory after the fact. Are you willing to risk civil and criminal prosecution to push that ban button and that delete button? You had better be sure, because the authorities will be interested in your actions. Attention, Members: Please consider! Yes, the diet 'works' for weight loss. How could it not - we are eating low carbs and low calories! We are working hard to lose weight, and we are. That's great! BUT, we can do that elsewhere. YES, we have wonderful friends here. We enjoy the support of our own groups. That means a lot. BUT, we can do what lots of people here have already done, and move out group somewhere else. Here are a some places to try, to get support without supporting a fraud: eatinglow.com, lowcarbdiscussion.com, forum.lowcarber.org, lowcarbfriends.com This site is guilty of so many crimes, and staying here makes us a little part of it. Kimmer/Heidi lied about almost everything, broke laws and hurt people, just to get our money, and the authorities have the proof. She is still scamming us, and the admins are covering that up. By being here, we help keep that going, too. The truth is that almost all the 'success stories' are totally fake --- even Kimmer's. Not that many people can really lose weight and keep it off and stay healthy on this diet, after all! It's a lie! Of the 16 or so real stories, most of them have now renounced the site and had many have had health problems --- doing it the way they were told to, NOT 'taking it to extremes'!! We bought the 'fastest diet' and now they are changing it because they KNOW they can get in trouble for the way it was --- people have been harmed from it after they have done it for a while. So, if they make it safer, it won't be as fast anymore, anyway. We might as well go somewhere where they aren't lying, banning, and deleting everything all the time, or making things up as they go along. We can still lose weight without supporting the site anymore. Face it --- this place is not the same, and it won't be. It is only a matter of time until it is forced to shut down anyway. Why not go out on purpose, with some integrity, instead of waiting until they close it down anyway? fake success story pictures health problems KTLA NEWS, Part 1 KTLA NEWS, Part 2 Becky's blog Christin's blog Deni's blog/" |

KIMKINS This very controversial and dangerous diet has generated major TV news investigative report, investigations by the Postal authorities for mail fraud, Foster Care program in California for fraud, Social Security for fraud as well as a class action lawsuit. In recent days the website has been sanitized to remove fake success stories, make the diet appear more healthy, etc. Kimmer is a fraud who used before and after pictures of herself and her "success story dieters" that were lifted from Russian Mail Order Bride sites. This has all been researched and documented. Below is a partial list of websites you can check for information about kimkins: LINK TO THE BLOG PAGE http://www.lowcarbfriends.com/bbs/blog.php?u=124458 LINK FOR SITES TO SEARCH http://www.lowcarbfriends.com/bbs/blog.php?b=5 LINK FOR THE SUCCESS STORIES THOUGHT TO BE FRAUDULENT- http://www.lowcarbfriends.com/bbs/blog.php?b=3 LINK FOR THE CONFIRMED FRAUDULENT SUCCESS STORIES- http://www.lowcarbfriends.com/bbs/blog.php?u=124458 LINK FOR THE DON'T SEARCH WEBSITES- http://www.lowcarbfriends.com/bbs/blog.php?b=6 The above all relate to the fake success stories. KIMMER ON TV Below is a link to the KTLA TV investigative report: KTLA, The CW | Video SIDE EFFECTS OF A VERY LOW CALORIE DIET “The risk of gallbladder disease is greatly increased for individuals following a VLCD. [2]A slowing of one's _meta_bolism can occur as your body adapts so the brain and central nervous system, as well as other bodily systems, will cease to work efficiently.The body will break down fat, but it will also break down muscle and other lean body tissue which can be very dangerous.An imbalance in minerals and electrolytes can occur. Osteoporosis can be another danger, especially for women as can anaemia (a lack of iron in the blood). If taken to extremes, women can find that menstruation (periods) becomes irregular or stops altogether. A lack of serotonin in the brain can lead to clinical depression. The lack of essential nutrients on a very low calorie diet leads to a deterioration in the condition of hair and nails.Another potential side effect is constipation (depends on the fibre content of the diet).[3]” Very low calorie diet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In case anyone is interested, here's where I got banned:
Me: Kimmer, I'm curious about the People Magazine article too. It must headline Kimkins for you to put it on the front page of the website. Poster who read article: The people cover magazine is from the January 2007 special double issue. How do I know? Because I have it. It is MY opinion that it was not meant to imply that these ladies on the front cover were on our way of eating of this particular plan, I think it was more to show the world that LOTS of people eat a low carb life_style_ and the result is HALF THEIR SIZE I think it was just used for an example is all. Tippy Toes: On the cover of that edition of People Magazine there is a woman who says she used Kimkins as part of her success. I believe she credits Atkins diet as well. Me: I think its misleading people. Since it is an issue that came out several months ago, most people won’t be able to get a copy to read. They will just assume Kimkins was headlined in People magazine and that these people lost all their weight using Kimkins. I would suggest Kimmer remove it from her front page. Poster who read article: It is not misleading anyone, people can read and are educated, she didn’t state or write that they were on Kimkins. It was more like doing research on programs like Kimkins or doing programs similar to Kimkins. You know, the low carb lifestyle, stuff like that is not misleading anyone, people can read and are educated, she didn’t state or write that they were ON Kimkins, it was more like doing research on programs like Kimkins. Kimmer: The woman on the cover is a Kimkins member and emailed me to let me know she mentioned Kimkins in the article. Me: Who is the member that is on the cover? Has she posted here? Since this was back in January, she's been awfully quiet this whole time about being on the cover of a magazine. *BANNED* |

It wasnt exactly in glory, but she did remove the people magazine cover that day as well as pretty much everything else, and got her escape plans together.
