The reason? I think Heidi came up with the name while sitting at her computer looking around at stuff and the Halcion bottle was in sight. Just a thought. Ok....carry on.
Totally makes sense!

It is just a weird spelling of Dennise. A lot of people are turning up in Zephyrhills.

the abovepress release was written by Christin, and Heidi Diaz used it under this false name... even "quoted" by this false name... for something that Christin actually wrote and said herself right before leaving Kimkins.
So, since Christin wrote this, does this mean that she has had personal contact with those involved with the challenge and the article is completely factual (except for the Amanda Holbrook part) I'm asking because you would think all these teachers would be coming out in droves (publicly) to support Kimmer. Or did Christin just write it based on information supplied by HeidiK?

I believe that there really was a teachers challenge and they did lose weight together.... but as to whether or not Christin spoke with them, read about their stuff on their challenge thread, or heard info from Heidi.. I don't know.

YOu ladies kill me. I have got to remember who we are dealing with here. I tried to finish up on thread #9, and as soon as the new name was posted, began my search only to realize it has been done already haha. You guys are great!

Great info provided as well, including the Sharp Plumbing link. Perfect!!! That does indicate Dennis knows full well what's going on. Since, how else would you explain all the other mail when going to pick his up? Ah well, it's not shocking, you do as you are shown. IF they both grew up with a scammer like Heidi for a mother, what would you expect?

Heidi, I know you are reading this, and just wanted to say that you should really be ashamed of yourself. Is being a lying cheating scumbag so important to you that you would teach your children this? Sick! You should have been teaching them to be kind and loving and helpful to others. But instead, you taught them the way of the grift! Way to go.

I will leave you with this thought. I was once asked when I die what I would like for my friends and family to say about me, aside from the obvious joke of "Look she's still breathing" I thought about it and realized that I would like for them to say that I was always willing to help, that I was loving and kind. Not that I had a huge house or a sweet ride. You dig?!? What do you think people will say when you die Heidi? I'm sure someone will mutter "Bad mother" among other things. You should really be ashamed, and now I know why you need Halcion, I wouldn't be able to sleep either, if I acted the way you do!

Yes, the teachers' challenge was genuine.

I think Christin emailed or PMed with the leader of the challenge, but I could be wrong. In any case, their challenge was an active one, and kept a running tally of combined pounds lost.

I can confirm Deni's statement, and Christin has the original to prove that she wrote that release. The quote is hers. After Christin left, Kimmer just made up Amanda Holbrook, and simply attributed the article and quote to her instead.

In Kimmer's mind, I imagine that was legit, since she had paid Christin for her time. Never mind that pesky little technicality of plagiarism and false attribution.

Yes, Scottish Steve, she's serious.
No problem, I think she's got plenty of rope now!

weight loss..(Biggest Loser, etc.), but there is no doctor on hand to watch them. Well, 3 more sick people, I'm afraid..
That's what she's been doing, and now she can say, I never said to eat like I was eating. I simply said what I was eating and posting about my success (which we know she hasn't had...sad really)

Don't worry, Heather's current "after" pic will become the "before" pic after not too long. Anyone wanna bet on that?

Thanks all for the replies...I hope no one thought I was trying to cast any dispersions on Christin in anyway...knowing what I know about her, I know she would never willingly write something that wasn't true...
Are there any of the Teacher Challengers here?
I guess I'm just thinking of the kids that look up to them, if they ask how they lost the weight would they tell KimKins? Know what I mean??

Hopefully the teachers involved are keeping their own dieting practices separate from their influence on kids. I'm sure they would....

I work with Jr. High'ers at my church.. and I wrote the following in my journal back in February ... while I was on and supportive of Kimkins.... this post is something I look back on now and think to myself.. wow... why didn't I realize what this MEANT?

I don't want to leave an unhealthy impression on these young girls. I try not to make it obvious that I"m dieting around them. You know how teenage girls are already obsessed with their weight... I wouldn't want them to see my diet and think "starving themselves" is proper. Yeah... you and I know, we aren't starving ourselves... but 13 year old girls would think so, and might be tempted to try it even though they don't need to. I really think it's more important for me to let my inner beauty show thru to these girls more than worrying about my external beauty. Even if this weekend knocks me out of ketosis.. I know I can get right back on Monday and build up my dominoes again. I will miss this nice long stack of dominoes that I've already built up.... but honestly being a good example for them is more important to me. (Hopefully God will recognize that and reward me!)
My intentions were always good.. but somehow I forgot to apply this stuff to MYSELF...

I'm not sure why I'm posting this here today.. but I think that perhaps there's still people who are on Kimkins that have hidden exactly what they are eating from people who they have an influence on... so by posting this, I want to ask them outloud what I wish someone had asked me.... "If it's not something you would want your child to do, then why do you insist that it's okay for you to do it?"

Well, Kimmer this is supposed to be your "Do Over".
She is not fasting because she lacks the self discipline to do it. She is, in a word, a hypocrite! She berates others and calls them sissies, yet she cannot follow her own advice.

The Discovery Channel went to a weight loss clinic back east and filmed a documentary. One of the things they said is that when patients come to the clinic, initially they are malnourished. The reason is that people in that weight category often are eating massive amounts of junk food. So while their calorie intake is quite high, the nutritional value of the food is so poor that they are medically malnourished. The same thing goes for the KK program. The paltry amount of food Kimmer advised people to have was the equivalence of malnourishment.

Zepherhills is indeed in the general Tampa Bay area of Florida and Dr. Mark was associated with a non-traditonal oriental school of medicine in Pinellas County just across the bay from Tampa which is also considered the Tampa Bay area. I seem to remember TT saying she was from Pasco County which is just north of Tampa, but I could be wrong about that. Anyway they are all on the west side of the Florida peninsula. I used to live in that area myself many years ago.

From Kimmer....... (bolding by me)

Re:60 Minutes & Portion/Calories Hours, Minutes ago
Thank God, I thought I was the only one! Why don't I stop? On another TV show (you all must think I just watch TV all day), I think Primetime they did a food experiment where they had volunteers sit at a table with a plate of cookies. They were told they could eat the cookies if they wanted to. Lots of the people ate lots of cookies. So what?

The hosts (I'm thinking Diane Sawyer but I'm not sure) was amazed that some people ate 5-10 cookies. I couldn't understand what she was surprised about? Apparently a serving would be like 1-2. Oh really? Not to me ... which is why I stay away from cookies (or anything similar).

I think a lot of my food issues come from "will it still be there"? I've been poor and there wasn't always food. Sometimes you can't get that "what if" feeling out of your mind.

How's school?


Hey Kimmer,
Is that why you keep them on the front seat of your car?

"If it's not something you would want your child to do, then why do you insist that it's okay for you to do it?"
This thought has been my greatest stumbling block to starting any diet that isn't appropriate for children or pregnant women, because if I have to keep that way of eating to maintain the weightloss, and it is safe, then my kids should be able to eat the same way too..right? Or if it is perfectly safe, why not during pregnancy also. Am I making any sense?
I did do Atkins several years ago, 6 months and 20lbs lost. It started out great but then degenerated to peanuts, low carb bars and protein shakes. (that's not atkins) The fact is if I have to do lot of planning to stay with it, I'll eventually lose motivation, even if I am losing. I think that's another reason KK is so appealing, not much to think about, especially if your not hungry.

ETA: the above 2 paragraphs are two totally different thoughts.
