Why the fascination with Kimmer? #12

[lowcarbmargi]

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who are posting recipe ideas, I've been copy/pasting and love all the great stuff.

My thoughts are with Christin and her family as well. I hope they have a speedy recovery with no complications.

Heidi is good at using people's old logins, this cracks me up...guess it is a payback for asking them to post my comments on their blog! lol...it is Heidi's site, how would you report it? Looks like Heidi is starting to go after the plaintiff's....I'd be looking for more posts by plaintiffs! lol....Nice try Heidi but it isn't going to help your case at all....tooo much info out here already about your scam!!!!!!

[Katinsac]

I hope Heidi is enjoying those sprinkled sugar cookies as she goes around the net posting lies for the new year! lol

[Katinsac]

ETA: Wonder if she will cut and paste and try to use it in court! lol

Tippy has not replied yet, but Heather/Campfire girl (formerly on KK's homepage challenge) did give an emphatic NO.

I will let Pocahontas answer this question fully, but I want to start by saying ...
NO! This statement on another website in NOT true. Pokey is no longer affiliated with her former website in any way, whatsoever. It saddens me that a person is trying to say that she is. As you have seen over here on our site, we do not endorse any plan and let each individual choose what low carb plan works best for them.

It's starting to look like she went after people on the 31st... you and from what I'm reading here, TT as well.

It might be a good idea to document this, and get a screenshot of it so she can't take it down later and play dumb that it never happened.

I was thinking that maybe there was a way you could report it to the host of her forum or something... someone higher up than Heidi? I don't know much about this so I'm not sure if it's possible but along with taking a screenshot it might be a good idea to send an email to her provider, and keep a copy of it headers and all.

[MissMerize]

If I were Tippy, I would be Pee'd off that Heidi renamed it "kimkins ctf diet." Notice how she decided it was hers?

Tippy won't get any credit for her cycling. That wasn't really a big thing before TT showed up.

TT better address this issue quickly.

I hope someone is helping you fix this Tipster! Any campers for Tippy (who may be spies), make sure she knows about this please.

[Katinsac]

"Pokey"...gotta love it!!

Here is a 'testimonial" from her site about the Foxnews show:

FIRST HEARD OF THE DIET WHEN I SAW THE MIKE AND JULIET SHOW. I MUST ADMIT, I WAS VERY SKEPTICAL OF EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING ON THE PANEL. I COULD NOT HELP BUT TO WONDER.... IF THESE LADIES LOST THE WEIGHT, ARE HEALTHY AND HAVE KEPT IT OFF WHAT IS THE PROBLEM???? THE KIMKINS PR PERSON COULD HAVE DONE A BETTER JOB DEFENDING THE PROGRAM. I, LIKE THOUSANDS OF OTHERS I'M SURE, HAD TO CHECK IT OUT FOR MYSELF. I HAVE BEEN READING TESTIMONIALS FOR THE LAST 30-45 MINUTES. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SURGERY, I HAVE LITERALLY TRIED EVERYTHING ELSE. THE TESTIMONIALS ARE VERY INSPIRING, BUT LIKE I SAID I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING ELSE. I HAVE HEARD IT ALL BEFORE.

HOWEVER, I AM STILL GOING TO TRY THE KIMKINS WOE. AT 270LBS. I AM THE HEAVIEST AND AND THE WORST CONDITION OF MY LIFE. I HAVE A 2YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WHO I FEAR NOT BEING AROUND FOR. IN ACTUALLY, I AM DESPERATE. I HOPE AND PRAY I DO NOT REGRET THIS DECISION. I CAN NOT HANDLE ANOTHER WEIGHT LOSS DISAPPOINTMENT,

The family was in a fairly new car, highly rated for safety, with lots of good safety features like air bags all around.

The kids are OK, but banged up and bruised and scared.

Brian is more banged up, had a severe concussion, but remained alert and aware, and will probably be discharged today.

Christin is in worse shape. It took them 20 minutes to cut her from the vehicle.

She has no broken bones or apparent internal injury, although her heart and lungs were badly bruised.

Her face is severely bruised, swollen, and cut up, especially around the right eye. She has a long cut through the tear duct and lash line. Her vision is expected to be fine, and they will plan for surgery to repair the damage around the eye once the swelling from her injuries subsides.

Her head took the worst of it. She is drifting in and out of consciousness, and in a lot of pain.
When she is awake, she knows who is with her, and responds to them.

However, she keeps asking the same questions, about how her family is, each time she is awake. Her short-term memory is not good right now. Apparently, that is normal for this type of injury. It may take a while before she is herself again. With time and care, though, she is expected to make a good recovery.

OMG. Please take care of them.

Get screenshots, especially if the person has their avatar there.

Amen to that!

That poor gal..I guess she never tried "starvation" until now. I'm sure she will regret that decision to endanger her "health"... The good thing is that the diet is hard to do..people get hungry and bored and then drop it..That is a good thing..Keep tabs on her and see what happens..poor kid.

For women: Bad Weight Loss

[LuckyKitty]

for Christen and her family

[Mayberryfan]

For Christin! Hope she and her family are all better soon!

Since we're sharing recipes today, I thought I'd share the LC version of hot spiced tea that is so good on these cold days. This recipe makes a huge batch that you can enjoy all winter.

3 Tubs Crystal Light orange drink
2 Tubs Crystal Light lemonade
3/4 cup instant tea mix
1.25 cups bulk splenda or other sweetener
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground cloves
1/2 tsp. allspice

Use 1 Tbl +/- per 8oz cup of hot water. So delicious!

Would you all mind praying for my brother in law (Bill). My sister (Karen) called in hysterics that something has happened to him. She doesn't know what - maybe heart attack? She is rushing to the hospital.

I hate waiting. She is many, many miles and hours away from me

[amadeus4313]

Many prayers going out for Christin and family and for Bill!

Hi Everyone, I just posted something in the Kimkins folder about her search details on msn. I hope you check it out and try to bump her off the homepage.

[Barbara B]

Jimmy asked her to respond and she did.

Hey Jeannie,

Diets In Review wrote a post today ([COLOR=#006666]http://www.dietsinreview.com/diet_column/01/kimkins-follow-up/[/COLOR]) stating some rather damning information about your continued relationship with Heidi Diaz and the Kimkins diet. Here's the quote from "Kimmer":

Please be advised that Jeannie continues to follow and support the Kimkins Plan today.

She simply left Kimkins in order to help spread the word via her own Kimkins-based website. She has my blessing and full support for her Kimkins CTF Diet.

Jeannie is still a very strong Kimkins supporter, and she remains my right hand here at Kimkins. Kimkins would not be the success it is today without all the hard work and support that Jeannie has given me and continues to give me on a daily basis.

If your life has been benefitted by the Kimkins Diet, you owe a great debt to Jeannie and all her hard work.

I couldn’t have achieved all that I have achieved without the monumental contributions made by Jeannie.

She is a fine testament of the proof that the Kimkins Diet is working miracles for thousand of obese men and woman every day.

Would you care to respond since she is lumping your CTF diet in with her ill-advised Kimkins diet plan?

Her Response:

I am friggen stunned! I just don't know what else to say. Cutting/reducing fats from Atkins does not make it Kimkins. I have done both and I know the difference.

First, I am in no way affiliated with Kimkins. In fact, I don't even visit the site. Check the stats for yourselves. I will try to make this very clear. I left Kimkins to avoid being dragged into a lawsuit and a serious one at that. It is not my intent to bad mouth Heidi or her Kimkins plans. That is NOT saying I support her or any fraud she has done.

I am not following Kimkins diet. I am at goal. I did re-gain a tad over the holidays. I tried STILLMAN'S Quick Weight Loss and took it off. I do believe in freedom of plan choice and I will never bully or harass anyone for their plan of choice. As far as Kimkins plans, yes I did lose weight and a lot of it. No one wants to hear it but I will not lie about it. I have no reason to. I stalled on Atkins after about a 50lb loss. I tried Kimkins but learned I just couldn't stay on it long. But I also saw weight loss for the first time in a very long time. So, I learned to cycle it back and forth--Kimkins to lose--Atkins to maintain. There are threads at LCF which show this though they are mostly overlooked. : A matter of convenience I am certain. Check the thread "Has Atkins Quit Working For You". It's all there. Another thread I posted a lot on was Support Unlimited. And for a while Banta Babes. Some say that was never Kimkins... But on a Kimkins cycle round it WAS.

Because I did lose a lot of weight using Kimkins I have not asked her to remove my success story. I know that is going to make a lot of people mad to read but that is how I feel. It is fair. I have not had contact with Heidi about my pics, my story or anything else. All ties are severed. We do not communicate by email, telephone or 3rd parties. And while I have been granted immunity from the lawsuit in exchange for cooperating I have not joined the lawsuit nor do I want my money refunded. I just want to be left in peace from all sides. This has been a nightmare.

A family member has started reading all the blogs and such about me and is now worried to death over it all. He didn't need that at all. He has had one stroke previously and suffers from other health and stress problems. My daughter started reading it too and is very angry over the obvious lies. In fact, my entire family is worried sick for me. People who do not know me at all are repeating the lies. It is sickening of the joy some get from attempts to ruin a person's life. I don't understand it.

I had no idea when I left Kimkins that I would be starting a site. In fact, I looked into Amy's site as a new home and was instantly banned thanks to LCF members who are determined I am not worthy of support, even though I have supported so many of them on my weight loss journey. This is what lead to Brian and Heather offering to build us our very own "home" and that is how Camp Carbaway was born. There was no master plot happening at Kimkins. We can all clearly see how people who follow her diets are treated by the other low carb communities. IF she should be forced to shut her doors due to the lawsuit her people are most assuredly welcome here. In fact, I don't care if they want to be members of both. That is their right.

Further, I find it surprising that Heidi would want us to offer Kimkins plans here as she sent Brian an email with a hint she would sue anyone for copycatting her plans. And, after all, they do belong to her. I respect that. Because of that I find it hard to imagine that Heidi would write that at all... And I suspect she did not. What I do suspect is just another person claiming glory to once again put a dagger in the middle of my back. Seems my suffering is their joy.

Jimmy, pass my email on if you like. I am glad to give them an interview. [COLOR=#006666]baitingerjeannie@yahoo.com[/COLOR]
