Vandy, I really don't have anything particularly nice to say right now, so I think I'll simply leave you with this ... only a fool would come over here and complain about people following up on those remotely connected with this scam and not expect that those same people would also look into the folks who protest the most.

If you have an agenda, it will be uncovered. Honest.

What a disappointment .... and then for you to brag about it. Sad!

Oh yes one more thing - I hope your Ketosis has left you today - not nice to feel in such a bad mood during this special day.

Merry Christmas, Ducks!

Heidi snuck a present in under the tree for us on the Kimkins site yesterday, but for the life of me, I can't remember what the stats were from last week before they were updated. So, did anyone actually make any progress this past week, or were too many Christmas sugar cookies shared by some?

I wonder if we will be seeing new pictures any time soon? Do you think anyone else is impressed with this "weekly updates" showing us the same picture every week? Obviously, anyone can manipulate numbers to reflect a "weight loss". And some people have shown their talent for manipulating pictures to reflect a "weight loss".

Why? Say “NO” to Kimkins

New Year's Resolution

I visited Medusa's blog this morning, and in the middle of a comment, I was reminded of something.
I was a completely different person when I was in kk. I was considerate, thoughtful, and so supportive of everyone. I'm not happy how this scam has affected me. I've become so bitter and my anger expressed itself in ways I have never seen before.

I sincerely apologize to anyone here who I may have offended over the past couple of months.

I will be adding back some of the old me in my New Years Resolution.

What doesn't happen to me? Someone finding out that I'm playing on both sides of the fence and exposing me for it? Going in to a forum for the purpose of causing discord? Getting called out for giving people all sorts of whatfor while all the while running back to my imaginary "home" and bragging about how I go in and stir that same whatfor? Going into a forum and acting like I'm one of them who is just unhappy with how my allies are conducting themselves, giving them some real righteous indignation and then being found out to be a fraud?

Not likely. I prefer the direct method. If I come to your house to dirty your carpet you will KNOW where I come from and why I'm there. I've had my fill of phoney "friends", honest. And have become fairly adept at telling the difference in my old age.

I really do find this all quite humerous.

Everyone has an agenda. What yours is is yet to be determined. So far, it appears that it is to stir up whatfor. The only remaining question is why?

Bolding is mine. It is very interesting how others can [and frequently DO] go on rants and become 'furious', yet call us mean spirited haters. I believe they call this a double standard.

Re-read your own post, Vandy, with different eyes. Does it make you feel all warm and fuzzy? Or does it make you wish you hadn't been so quick with your keyboard fingers?

One of the things I find most amusing, as I go around reading previous posts and all kinds of blogs -- not only anti-kimmer blogs either -- is the sneering comment made by kimkins followers that LCFs claimed they were trying to save KKers from harm--help that obviously was disdained by the KKers. This is usually quickly followed by a disclaimer saying the diet worked for them, then an admission that they never really followed the diet as written. It's great when you can have it ALL ways, ain't it?

When one has joined her site, do they log in through that front page? I guess what I'm wondering is if members see those photos weekly? Most people buy on impulse and won't be looking from week to week before they decide.

Unless they are anal - like me

Thanks, I could use a few. I'm glad we had our family gathering *last* weekend, as I now have a very bad cold and doing the usual - sneezing, coughing, shivering, sweating, you name it. But at least it's given me time to post and relax - nobody's coming and I am still in my jammies. Well ... perhaps I'm milking it, but so what, right? Dh makes me tea and anything else I want and he is now baking lowcarb bread! Jeez, what a lucky girl.

I will repeat it again. I am pointing out things that I have seen on this thread so some people *might* take a step back and keep it focused on the one agenda these threads are for.

MissM:

I'm sorry I can't really comprehend what you have experienced. I never joined KK and never would have, frankly. Only because I love eating too much

But I want to tell you that I find your posts funny and interesting. [Besides, I love your diet] We have all had some regrets for some of our posts, I think. I sometimes typed before I considered things properly. Hey, but it's that same tenacity and drive that uncovered so many things. I wish you warm holiday greetings.

Fawn opened herself up to all sorts of scrutiny when she created a public blog and did all the slobbering over Heidi and TT. Other than little snippets here and there I had no clue who Fawn was or that she had any claim to fame beyond huggiesssssssss. What I read were her own words and I must say - they don't portray her in the best light. She is either a very simple person being totally manipulated, or she is quite cunning all on her own and a willing participant in an ongoing fraud. I don't know her to know which. But if you really ARE her friend and concerned about her feelings, you could probably serve her really well taking her aside and explaining that posting what she is on a public blog is simply making her a target.

I appreciate that you care about your friend. The way you are trying to "help" or defend her is simply not helping her at all. She might be better off if you just let this die a timely death. Oh, and you can probably be sure it will all kick back up again once folks get back from the holidays.

My apologies, Sweeteater, don't want to steal your thunder. But there was absolutely no mention of anyone on this board or any other that I could see (other than Fawn's) that said TT and Heidi were companions in arms again. Nevertheless, TT made a great todoo about stressing how divided they are. I didn't think a passing comment about Fawn's blog was worth all that denial. Unless Fawn blabbed what she shouldn't have.
Ah well, we'll just have to hurry up and wait to see what comes out in the wash.

Wowzer! Those pics make me want to sign up so I, too, can lose all my fat fast!

Not.

Well, actually, sadly, it does stir something deep in me. Too bad it was too good to be true.

No talk about Kimmer or the lawsuit or anything like that today......

Just wanted to wish everyone a great Christmas! Enjoy the time with your friends and family. I'm looking forward to a peaceful, relaxing day. Hope everyone has the same.
