Just introducing myself.

I think that the friendly Atkins people might be interested in knowing that there is someone who is charging money and giving Atkins advice, hm? That's what it looks like is happening- Miss TT is sure dishing it out.

Also, in Heidi's fitday, there is one entry that is the suggested calories for bootcamp- and it's a whopping 500 calories. I have a screen shot if needed.

The bride sites make my brain hurt.

Keep on truckin' everyone!!!

to our forum.

What's interesting is that they are charging for dishing out info on Atkins WOE. Isn't that something the Atkins Corporation would like to know about?

Ok, back to the tapeworm. I'm starting a new diet forum everyone! The tapeworm diet! eat all you want and still lose weight! Yum yum! Any takers? I gotta paypal! No problem.

(this is a joke, I repeat, this is a joke)

With my luck, both me and the tapeworm would be termed obese!

Poor lady. That meth thing IS bad. I truly hope she's able to gain some control back in her own life. It's all too easy to get consumed with other family member issues and forget that YOU are the most important.

the kimkins Survivor blog got a TOS from it's old site not sure why and it has a new URL for everybody with links to refer kimkins folk to it here is the new version Kimkins Survivors
those stories are too important to get yanked from site by the kimpire.

edited to add they are unremoved the blog and Kimkins Survivors is back at its old place so now we got two places to send folk who doubt any health issues from kimkins.

Sorry. Maybe it's just me, but I CANNOT trust a "doctor" who cannot spell correctly on a 5th grade level. Geeeesssszzzhhhh! But, bless his heart!

I don't like this Dr Mark dude but people do make typos and knowledgable is a word:

knowledgable - Definitions from Dictionary.com

One thing to keep in mind is the spelling of English is not universal for example

You spell, mom and I spell mum

You spell, realize and I spell realise

I could go on and on...

I just read a post from Tippy stating that Kimkins has new owners. When did that happen? I try to read this thread pretty faithfully and don't remember seeing that here. Can you point me in the right direction?

Freedom&Light · 10-12-2007, 07:11 PM

Thanks for the welcome!

I think it was a couple of weeks ago..But NO ONE knows who the new owners are..It's a secret. Many of us don't believe that Kimmer would sell the site because she gets too much money from the newbies and doesn't like to give up control. Kimmer only receives email now, or so she says..It's hard to figure what is true and what isn't over there in the Kimpire.

Thanks for posting that new link. I think it's one of the most valuable blogs out there. I always say, you can argue with people's opinions/viewpoints on things, but you cannot argue with their personal testimony.

Here's Brad....now we are officially done with the men I do believe!

Great job "AuntieLynn"!! WOO HOOO

I have added Brad/Giorgia to the list now!
That is a wrap on the guys for all the before and after pictures.

For those who didn't notice I have posted the before and after photos of the fake success stories, who had more than one model in their success story. At first I hadn't, because we were proving the stories false by just finding one of them per story, but since each picture is another case of fraud and rights violated by the person who is in the picture, I decided to post them all.

2big4mysize · 10-12-2007, 07:37 PM

woo hoo for gunngadinn all boys done now just soem ladies to find well actually the site kimmer used to find them is what we need. Can anybody see the dates the stories went up originally? if they are in groups by date then we can most likely say they came from the same site and when one is found concnetrate everybody on thast site scouring it.
I moved back to site one honeybee and am in the 90s 4 of the found plus kimmers red dress are on that site so it is worth going to the end on.

MissMerize · 10-12-2007, 07:41 PM

On my 3rd martini, HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!!!

Will be passing out very soon at this point. Good thing I'm 10 steps away from slumberland.

The patio chair shot looks to me like something out of a low-end fashion catalog (trying to think of a name!) or maybe a hair design collection.

Freedom&Light · 10-12-2007, 07:53 PM

Linda, that's what I thought, too. Either Speigel, Lane Bryant (the catalog, not the store!), or even JCPenny/Sears.

I've been searching like crazy for that one. I did try hair searches. I've tried catalog models. I even tried to find just the shirt to see who the designer is and then go from there. I've searched old magazines. Anybody have any suggestions for search words?

I thought so, too. What would they be selling? A blouse? It was probably a picture on an on-line catalog that was lifted for the KK site. If it was that, then it is too old to be found. White pants..so maybe it was a summer/spring catalog.

Catalog: Newport News?

Maybe that's what got me sent to banned camp, since my name on Amy's forum and Jimmy's forum is the same as it was was KK?

Nah, it was probably because I posted links to nearly all the blogs in a reply to a newbie thread and made several negative Kimkins posts in my journal on KK.

Nothing against the TOS, just the truth.

Oh wait, the TRUTH is against the TOS over there.

That's a good one to search. I'm on it! Thanks!

Wonder if that photo could be put on Yahoo Answers, or youtube, etc, where you can ask the general public if anyone has seen it. If it is from a catalog, someones going to remember it.
