As you read through their stuff though, it is clearly a vendetta, a vicious vendetta that has gone very personal as opposed to a professionally mounted and researched protest and claim. It's actually quite humorous to an educated reader. It sort of sounds like a bunch of writers for tabloids that you pick up at the grocery stand. But these writers have little education and no finesse.

Needless to say, some people don't cut through the BS that's out there, they can't, they don't know how, it's overwhelming, whatever. So having this wonderful opportunity to go on TV and discuss what Kimkins is about is wonderful.

None of us really care about the real personal stuff about Kimmer. I mean, we do, but we stand behind the program, the ideal, the way it started. We were the pioneers that saw what she was talking about a long time ago. I just liked her from the beginning, I liked the conviction of her words, I liked her proposals of what worked and didn't work. She built inspiration in those of us who listened to her. I never senses that Kimmer was ready for a fight over at the board. I sensed that she stood firm in her beliefs and that was all. She took the criticism gracefully and the stepped up criticism and eventual catfighting until really, she had to go. What could she do?

I believe strongly that Kimmers has maintained professional courtesy consistantly. At least any time I visit, or what I've read, I've not seen Kimmer lend credibility to any of the bad mouthing nor has she played any hand of back biting or bad mouthing. That speaks more to her integrity.

I just can't believe that the admin at the other board would even allow this kind of stuff. They are way too big and I thought, professional for this. What a fire, what a stir.

By the way, did anyone ever think the girl in the red dress was supposed to be Kimmer? Am I way out of it? But I didn't ever have the impression that it was her. I never thought Kimmer was projecting her to be Kimmer.

I hope that as a result of this TV show, that we can see more TV shows. It's really nasty business out there. I hope you can talk a lot about the medical reports about the bloodwork, etc.

Can't wait![/b]
It's like I can hear 'Pomp and Circumstance' playing in the background. Why is that?

If so I need to go see what is going on over there because when MJR posted that it read like Kimmer trying to rally the supporters before "D" day.

I don't know why the post count got messed up. As I said, perhaps Kimmer had to do something when she brought this person back to life, and it somehow reset the count
Yep, this is right. the poster's count said 2 and was listed as a Newbie. But when I went to the profile to check out what Mariasol said, there it was... 100's of posts. Don't know what the issue is. This poster stopped posting in April. See posting dates below. hmmmmmm

Sockpuppet vs. Kimmer OR just someone without a clue?

Honey, even though I read these when they were posted, I'd have to agree with your comment above. I overlooked them at the time, and let others answer, however, I think I did answer the one about the small number of people responding to the class action law suit. When comments come in like the ones on the above threads, I just kinda try to bypass them until I feel they are in support of the cause here. After going back and reading them, one after the other, I do kinda get the feeling they were not ment in a supportive way but in a "give me some info on what is going on" type of way. I'm sorry to the poster if this offends. It is not ment to and maybe it is just they way she asks her questions? I don't know but I have to admit I'm a little bit suspicious.
Hi Kat
I had not commented on them in the past, because in general I think most of us realize how there are many questions when we come to the forum and these threads.
I felt I had to be honest and say that some of her posts did raise some questions with me in my mind, but I had not posted those concerns, because I felt the way they were phrased was based more on Arbah's confusion of the kimkins situation, as well as what to do now with her WOE.
I truly hope she will answer my post that was made as a reply to hers.

Well, I watched the Green Room interview..Very interesting, I thought..She emphasized
the fact that people were sticking out their stomachs, etc..then wearing black to hold them in to look thinner..The Kimmer Method is far more illegal...Using the poor Russians to sell your product..exploiting the brides of Russia..Wonder if the KGB knows??

I think the segment will be around 20 minutes. Today, they cut off the TrimSpa product cuz they ran out of time....I think this show goes in for drama to make it interesting..so it should be interesting..

Juliet and Mike will be shocked as to what a KKer eats..and NO EXERCISE!! to boot.

Anyone else who wants to send Christin and Deni an encouraging note, please pm me.
I sent in all the great ones that many of you have written.. Thanks.

Elloise,
I think I heard the same song while I was reading it too.

I didn't think their were any posts left over there that had links to the "disgusting websites" If so, I would think this poster would have had to REALLY dig deep into old posts to find them. I know I've been "digging" for the "good guys" for days now and haven't seen any. They've all been deleted. So when I read this post I thought it was odd.

I didn't "know" Kimmer like some of you - I only came back to the site after hearing about the controversy. So I can't honestly comment on weather it is her or not. But my gut says... it could be

A trap of some sort? Like I made you look? I think the red dress pic comment was baiting for someone to post a rebuttal. Just my initial response. But I didn't go do it because I think someone wants to know who is there on the inside....Don't you Kimmer...Hi There .........

How many minutes do you think they will give Tippy to talk?? I'm betting that it is very little..

On another board, someone posted that Tippy hasn't been posting on KK much..she is preparing for her tv debut!..

MJR- This statement: "I was shocked this morning as I was flitting around the board and reading stuff. I found myself somewhere here that had been linked to a disgusting, website "

This is Kimmer's way of feeling superior. It implies that it is beneath her to search the web for info pertaining to her or kimkins. She will never admit that she reads here or the other board because it would show that she cared what was being said and remember she claims what we say has little value.
Her famous line when she was actually posting under her name either here when she was doing "ask Kimmer" or on Kimkins or even another board she would say something like...(*Note although these are not direct quotes because I didn't feel like digging them up, they are based on the overall exposure to Kimmer's spew)...."It was reported to me", or "I had to come read what was going on because others were concerned", or "Someone had sent me links or quotes to this thread" or something along those lines to remove her from the situation...again to feel superior.
