THANKS for sharing your comments shiphips. But this is neither the time nor the place to debate the Kimkins diet. You can do that elsewhere, but we're not gonna do that here. It is well-documented that this "diet" plan you support was created by a morbidly obese scam artist with no background in nutrition or medicine.

The true low-carb diet consists of a high-fat, moderate protein, low-carb diet where calories are not a factor. Sure, there are SLIGHT variations from this, but that's the basis of Atkins, Protein Power, Barry Groves, and the other reputable low-carb plans that are out there. These are legitimate plans to be discussed--but not Kimkins...at least not here.

Feel free to open your own forum or blog to tout how Kimkins has helped you, but it's not gonna happen here. We have people here recovering from the severe health damage that was done to them because of this dangerous low-cal/low-fat diet fraud, so I will not permit you to post your positive feedback about it.

THANKS for sharing and best wishes in your weight and health journey.


Go, Jimmy, go!!!!
Glad he's not allowing pro KK there.

Someone asked if "Shiphips" and Medusa's "JaneDoe" are the same person...I seriously doubt it!

When I was at KK's I frequented the 40+ thread which Shiphips started. She told about her life and some major issues, but did so with irreverance and humor.

JaneDoe is clearly a depressed, desperate person who seems to have lost touch with how to laugh. I feel so sorry for her! KK's messes with your hormones and can make you feel like you're suffering from a major case of PMS. Taking it to the level Jane is might make it closer to postpartum depression.

I just hope she wakes up! Hopefully, Shiphips will learn better as well.

I don't know who shiphips is---but you are right on the money with your assessment of Jane Doe---it is too sad---she is a heart attack waiting to happen with the starvation and all that exercising.....

doesn't realize even though she is not losing any weight---she is feeding off her muscles----the heart being a muscle also--she is killing herself and refuses to see it....

And Heidi's bright idea of doing shakes, broth and diet is soda isn't gonna help matters....

Medusa must have posted this some time tonight - apparently they are one and the same. Maybe something has happened to change her since you were there. I just hope she takes all of this seriously and listens to what survivors have to say.

Here's the link: Medusa: JANE DOE OUTS HERSELF...

Delurking for a second...

Really? I've thought Jane Doe was shiphips from the beginning. I remember the threads at kk from May/June where shiphips yelled at other posters (including Becky) for telling her to eat more because Kimmer said eating 250 calories a day was okay. She always struck me as having serious food issues. Jane Doe is eerily similar.

Coming out of lurk mode to say when I "googled" the name shiphips, the fitday pages from Medusa'a blog came up. Not the links to her fitday, the actual word docs, with the names changed to Jane Doe, that were in the blog. Ok ducks...carry on

at jimmy's, you can go back and edit your posts whenever you want and it doesn't even show an "edit" timestamp like it does on here. maybe that's why you don't see it?

Just to clarify, she didn't say "new rings." She said "newly loose rings."

Not defending her (at ALL); just trying to prevent misinformation from being spread.


v0xhumana: Who were you quoting? I'm not understanding your post.

vernswifevickie: I don't get your post either.

ETA: GoLite's post is abstruse as well. Yet people are agreeing with him/her? Played by what? About what? How does it help to be vague? Or is this just more pot stirring? This is why I fade in and out of this thread -- too many veiled references and I don't have the time or inclination to follow up on all of them. I leave the real work to the real ducks. I'm just a part-timer and my work hours are too long for me to be of much help.
Maybe I need more coffee? There seems like a LOT I don't get lately. I've been spending too little time around here to really understand a lot of what's transpired. Like, who are the 3 muskateers? Where did they go? So confuzzled.
