Why the fascination with Kimmer? #7

[BobbiOh]

so her doctor gave her phentermine

Yeah, most people will lose weight when they take Speed and starve themselves. Phentermine is an amphetamine, which is what "Speed" used to be.

Oh i should say incase there are any kimmer lurkers her. Tippy is welcome to visit me. Open door policy. I would gladly ask her my questions, and let her debate the weight issue. I have lowcarbed way longer. Maintained my losses for years. I did this without starving, without getting sick, with my certified doctors blessing. I am not afraid to post a photo of myself in a binkini close up so everyone can see what i look like up close and personal. I am not saying its pretty, u cant lose close to 100 pounds at our age and not have saggy skin (sorry ladies) but thats ok.

True, but would she ignore one of her admins telling people to eat chicken wings or even worse, CHEESE!!! Any wuss who needs to eat chicken wings should just call it Fatkins and get off her site.

I suggest she stop pointing the finger until she herself has maintained her losses for more than a few weeks. I was nice, but i questioned her creditablitly to offer advise to anyone on how to keep the weight off.

This is a huge issue for me. I don't understand why people are taking advice from someone who is continuing to yo-yo diet and cannot maintain her weight without resorting to vcld for days/weeks at a time.

The mind boggles.

This "Kimkinette" is proud she has gotten her eating up to these amounts...It looks like peanuts are one meal for her and the protein & veggie are her other meal. Wow-I feel like a pig.

Right Jayed, I can tell you how I maintained for two years. I can offer advise on how to hold fast on a bad day. I am not a professional I can only tell you what has worked for me. Tippy hasnt had it work yet. She has just gotten there. I can tell everyone Exersize, you will like what is left alot better when you get to goal. I got to goal, wasnt happy with what was left, and then I started to exersize boy did things look better. I wish i hadnt wasted a year with just eating right. So I tell people that it is with my experience, exersize, one because it is good for you, two because when you reach goal you will like the way your muscles look

I found a new way in!!!

I had to de-lurk for this one. I thought this was crazy and a bit scary . . .my dh is a mt and I thought it was a requirement to be licensed to practice let alone instruct (at least in MOST states -- an unskilled mt can do a lot of damage); heck, dh has 3 different state licenses and a national and since we're trying to relocate he has to get another for the state we're going to. . .I was curious so I called the Florida mt board and they said that it isn't a state law to be licensed in order to teach in that state. . . scary. I really can't imagine a reputable school hiring an unlicensed mt (I'd be willing to wager most schools there require the license even if it isn't the law yet). . . if I was a student I'd be asking for a refund.

This is so true. And, at least when I was still posting at kk, exercise was pretty much discouraged, particularly weight training. It aggravated me to no end. People were more concerned with the number on the scale moving than developing a healthy exercise plan. If they lifted weights one day and didn't lose the next, well then weights must stall you. Of course, it came down from on high (Kimmer) that you didn't need to exercise and that losing was the most important thing so most people latched onto that excuse. It was an uphill battle for someone like Kim to convince people that exercise is important. It doesn't appear to me that much has changed.

Hi MissMerize, how are you getting in? I was banned last week for questioning the "Russian Success Stories". I didn't get to exchange emails with my challenge group. Can you share and then delete the info? I don't think either of us can PM yet.

So, why the hell is she at the Kimkins site when she's NOT doing Kimkins? Moreover, why is she there when she got sick and felt like CRAP and had to go to the ER when she WAS doing Kimkins?

People are so frigging stupid. Yes, I said it. If you stay at a diet site where the diet literally made you ill and you no longer can do the diet of said site named for said toxic diet: Y'all are MORONS!

Sorry, that post just made me shake my head so much, my tiara slipped down to my ears.

Make me Queen, please, so that I can make logic and analytical skills training mandatory from kindergarten onwards.

If you post it I'm sure it will be corrected in a matter of minutes, they are watching this thread like crazy!

Someone earlier used the phrase Trailor Trash Dr. and I wanted to say in Mesa not only did my dearly departed mother and my father live in a BEAUTIFUL one with a sunken whirpool tub and fireplace, my in laws do too!

This is another thing that I just cannot understand. Why do some people have such a need to hold onto the name "kimkins" long after they stop eating in any way that resembles that diet? I see it over and over again on other sites. People say they are doing kimkins but with more fat or more calories, or more something. I don't understand why they don't admit they are doing atkins or south beach. Why do they have to add legitimacy to kimkins when they are not in any way, shape or form following that diet?

At both those percentages you will be healthy and look good.


I want to shoot for 11% to challenge myself. The hard part will be that I do not want my weight to change....200lbs to stay.


1. I will limit my carbs and sugars of course
2. Perform core strengthening exercises with an exercise ball at home
3. Add 2-3 hand weight or kettlebell exercises at home

Instead of doing other aerobic exercises I am going to manipulate the three things above in order to accomplishe the goal. i.e. lower carbs or less break between sets or more repetitions.
I also pledge to keep my workouts to 15-30 minutes.

This is an experiment. I want to help give you tools that anyone can use.

I want everyone to know that it doesn't take a gym membership or an extra 2 hours a day to make a difference.




A Big Hi Again to everyone. Eat some chicken for me!
Dr. Mark



Where is he? He was on 55 minutes ago, and completely breezed by gout and flabby. That's discrimination!

18% get real that is in the fitness range not the healthy body fat range!!!!! normal for femals is under 25%
for guys it is 15-18%

and it is also age dependant with hight BFs for older folk as normal.
