Thanks. I was really disappointed today.

I was disappointed too...even got up early...well, DVR is set for tomorrow, lol. I thought maybe they'd keep it for the Anorexia segment on Monday but tomorrow is good. Don't want people to miss it with the other big story.

[Katinsac]

I noticed a lot of the GMA stories are very short...sure hope they allow more time for this one...

[Katinsac]

and on Kimmer's home page...she is down, what? 48 pounds sense when? Wow...(haha) maybe she will fit in the red dress by her court date and the orange jumpsuit will look so much better on a skinny body. lol

I've got no love whatsoever for Kimmer, but I will say this -- I hope she's lying about her weight loss and following her own killer plan, and not because I want us to be right about her being a lying liar who lies (although I love the idea of seeing her in an orange jumpsuit!). I want to be right because if she *is* following her own plan and losing weight that quickly on a starvation diet, she's going to get very, very sick or worse. As much as I want her site shut down, I don't want the reason for that 404-site-not-found to be because her own diet killed her.

[CarolynF]

I doubt that she is down that much this week. She probably is getting ready for the onslaught of the GMA curious, don't you think?

[RockyMtnAngelEyes]

I find it VERY hard to believe she's {or anyone}losing that fast... If her thyroid is as bad as she says it is, there is no way... Even if she is on meds, that still makes it so hard very, very hard to lose...

[sherlynn9]

Just wondering, since Heidi bought the house, has she moved in. If so, is the address for Kimkins still the McKinley street address? Or using this address because it was the original address for Kimkins for all of the fraudulent advertising?

Sheryl: This is where she gets her mail. It's a PO address..The PI caught her there this summer..

People love your company - and have even been known to get addicted to you.

Whew! I was beginning to think I was the only choco nutty on the forum. Sheridan, maybe that's why we agree on so many things.

Heidi always claimed to be a fast gainer and a fast loser. They kind of go hand in hand. If she has stopped dating the Captain, a certain amount of weight caused by poisoning her liver and subsequent bloat will fall off. A relative who gave up 2 bottles of beer nightly lost 20-30 lbs in short order on a tiny 4'9" frame. And her stuck out stomach went back to normal again. FWIW, Jimmy Moore lost 10 pounds a week for 10 weeks before he stalled bigtime. Big guys and gals can take it off faster than normal fatties in the beginning.Besides, Heidi is being treated for her thyroid, and as her weight drops, her meds will need adjusting, requiring constant medical supervision.

Yes ma'am, I know her claims.. And I never bought into them before... I could always lose fast, but never gained fast, so, in my case anyway, they didn't go hand in hand..

I know what you're saying, but what I'm saying is with the thyroid working against her, that changes the rules of fast lose... She would lose some, due to cutting out of the Captain, but only so much...

And FWIW, I know a lot of people who are being treated for their thyroid, including myself, and it doesn't make it easy to lose... I go in every 3-4 months for blood work.. I WISH the meds made it act like a normal functioning thyroid, but, it just doesn't work that way on most people...

I just don't buy it...

[cleochatra]

I don't think people are going to be inclined to believe anything she says, about her weight or which plan she could be following right now.

I have heard, however, that horizontal stripes are very slimming.

If it's true she's also now diabetic, then she almost certainly has Metabolic Resistance meaning unless she is working out a lot she probably can't lose weight easily anymore. Those days are likely over...if they ever existed for Hidey to begin with.

Sez me: she's just trying to look good for any possible newbies. She is still a fat lying liar that lies.

[luvdanrs]

I thought it was against site rules to post addresses and phone numbers?

I'd have pm'd you, but you need 25 posts and/or 25 days But if she does catch you, you're welcome here and anywhere else on LCF.

I made sure that it was

Me, neither..I am hypo, treated with 100 Synthroid and have a devil of a time
losing weight..but I can gain really "easily"..

When my son was home from college, I was telling him the Kimmer tale..How she claimed to have lost 200 pounds in 5-6 months..whatever..THEN she claimed she gained all her weight back in June after the WW mag came out..
Then the August PI pics..So he said..Well, she also gained 200 pounds in
2 months! What a thyroid, huh???

i met up with christin earlier for a visit (regandy too!)

christin is doing much better! still hobbling some, but at least she's not having to use her walker now! if you look closely at her face, you can see her black eye and a cut around her one eye but she did a FABU job covering it all up with her makeup so people prolly won't see it at all if she did that kind of a good makeup job the other day when GMA came to film her.

i saw a couple of scrapes and really ugly bruises but overall...she is MUCH improved & we're all so grateful for that!

it was so good to see her up and around!

GMA producer says the story is a "go" for tomorrow morning, so all who are interested...check it out.
