Why the fascination with Kimmer? #9

[CarolynF]

Mariasol on another site thought that Derek's AFTER photo was the real photo..Now that's interesting, huh? They could just add more fat/hair, etc..What do you think, Zilla?
and others?

Interesting twist, make skinny photos fatter? After the Russian bride mess nothing from over there can be trusted anymore. As for us looking at all these photos with suspicion it reminds me of the old adage: FOOL ME ONCE...SHAME ON YOU! FOOL ME TWICE, SHAME ON ME!

Does anyone know if Heidi has or had an interest in Harry Potter?
DId she ever talk about Harry Potter books or movies here or at KK?

I know this sounds weird but I think I found something and I need some feedback on this.
Thanks

I don't remember Heidi having a Harry Potter thing but SingingLass did and so did the sock puppet Noelle88- Who is Heidi I believe. But who knows maybe Brandon has a Harry Potter thing because 1988 is his year of birth and he set up Heidi's Momsbabe88 email, per cutie. Does that help or make it worse?!?!? LOL Now, you know what it is like in my head.

The background looks fake, the shoulders are easy to manipulate (they look "shaved), and have done neckline work...so that is possibly photosopped....but the hair is different. You CAN change that by cutting and pasting from another photo along with a little clone stamping, but it is hard to get it to look right.

Maybe I should be asking for YOUR address, Wifey! But I'm obscurely pleased that an expert such as yourself cannot definitely state that this photo was manipulated, since I'm no expert, but that is the way I'm leaning.

He has a little less hair, his eyes are slightly less podgy - but his left shoulder looks as massive as it drifts off the screen. Also the corner of his mouth turns up ever so slightly, whereas it is a little less smiley in his before. The skin tones are also different, and a bit more distinct in the after. If this is photoshopped, that person who did so is a consummate artist and should be able to command a premium dollar from almost anybody. Can you get me his address?

Ok SMP are you wanting the address of the "consummate artist" or the "cute guy"?

I think Singinglass in her introduction on Myspace mentioned an interest in Harry Potter. But my memory's poor, and I wouldn't have saved the reference.

I did save it! That catalog is in my basement somewhere. I had forgotten all about that guy with the short boxers. lol
I bet his mama is real proud.

I'm suppose to be taking a break from the internet---but I MUST pop in here and keep up

Anyhoo....

I'm glad to see this will get national; coverage---I've got my mom and sis hooked on this saga so we'll be watching it here 9am on Fox6 out of B'ham

speaking as one of the formerly desperate souls who would have done anything to lose weight---(hence the gut-whacking I got...WLS)
I'm worried that many who are really desperate will take one look at Deni and Christin, see their incredible weight loss and all the other bad stuff will go right out the window---all they will focus on is the fact that it worked for those two

yeah--we all know what a scam it is-what a fraud the whole thing is--plus all the other junk---but some just won't get it-it will be all about the loss of pounds

I mean you can have a heart attack---but hey you'll be a thin corpse
You lose your hair in bunches---so You'll be bald but thin
hey you stop having periods---me personally, I'd love to finally be rid of that curse
Shoot you blow out our thyroid--hey they make a pill for that

sorry y'all that is tongue in cheek----don't want to offend those who actually went through any of this......

but seriously--the possibility that this can send people to the site really worries me......

[HoneyBee2]

ummm.......after looking at the sear's ad maybe you wanted that model's address SMP?!?!?

The artist, of course! I want a Heidi-like After that bears some resemblance to me after an expert manipulates my Now. Grey hair - gone. Wrinkles, ditto. Now carve a couple pounds off the face, and x pounds off body. Raise what gravity sucked. Done! (that's the most difficult part, getting the wrinkles in clothes to match body contours.) Oh yeah, lengthen my arms and legs, and shrink the tush. Wow! I look more like my dream version of me every minute. Now whiten my teeth and lengthen the fangs. All done! And it still looks like me, albeit 40 years younger, 70 pounds lighter, and somebody else's body! Oh wait! Don't forget to airbrush my skin. It's all that fresh air, non-smoking, and bathing in Retin A that gives me the dewy complexion of a 6 month old infant's bottom.

She was the only one that said "Eat a Centrum type vitamin" or "Eat a multivitamin". I always thought that was strange...you don't eat a pill, you TAKE a pill. The numerous times it's mentioned in this post has KIMMER Written all over it!!!

How long did you lose hair for? I'm trying to figure out how long this is going to go on for me. I'm losing so much that it's just scaring me that I'm going to get all out bald areas. It's so thin now that when I see the amount of hair I'm losing each time I shampoo and (very carefully and gently) brush that I just can't imagine where it's managing to come from. I'm going three days between shampoos and I'm only brushing it lightly right after I let it sit in a towel for a bit and then just use my fingers to fluff on the other days (curly hair). I'm so hating this. It's so embarrassing. I'm afraid to get it cut and lose the length that I'm now using to hide the thinness as much as I can.

I think it's available on their site. Isn't it?

Kimkins was supposed to remove KIm articles in order to stop the copyright violation, so I am not sure if they complied and the complaint was closed or if Kimkins just stated they would remove the items and Liquidweb closed the issue.

Thanks! How'd that go, Kim?

Not enough by any means.
Not being able to understand how someone like her can do what she has done is a good thing. It means you (we) are so far removed from the kind of person she is that we can't fathom her actions.

Thank goodness a semi truck driver saw her before riding over her. She broke her shoulder blade and was pretty banged up. She is 40 years old - here she is laying on the street calling her mom and dad (us) 1200 mile away - and not calling her husband 1 miles away... I guess no matter how old your kids are - they are still kids...

OMG! She's so lucky!
Years ago when I was in my twenties I was attacked in a parking lot. I managed to fend the guy off and he wasn't able to accomplish what he intended. I chase him down (followed him in my car as he drove away), got his license plate number, make, model and color of his car, and a description of him. I then went to the police station and told them. They arressted him at home where he went to change his pants (gag!). After stoically filling out reports, answering questions, identifying him in a line-up I called my father. The moment I heard his voice I started to cry, "Daddy? I was attacked..." You're right. No matter how old you get, you're still the kid and you need your parents.

Boy, howdy!

Oh, I can't wait to hear what he has to say.

Ok here you go. This could be the artist?? Just purely speculation but here is his photoshopped photos that I found on his myspace.
MySpace
his myspace main page

Hi all,

I just went to the Morning Show with Mike and Juliet site to look it up for a friend and the ticker above the video says that tomorrow's show will have "Do Weight Loss Products Really Work?" and Monday's show has "The Popular Online Diet: Is It A Success Or A Scam?"

The? All of the singulars leads me to believe that they are focusing on one diet scam. wonder which one?
