Why the fascination with Kimmer? #13

[BamaGal]

OYB---just read you award post---this part killed me...

Mole rats are lowcarb, right?

Can you picture Heidi accepting this award? With tears in her eyes, she'd like to thank the admins she threw under the bus, the dieters she ridiculed and damaged, and all the little people who got sick following her diet. Without them, she wouldn't be where she is today.

Good for Jimmy!!!!!!!!!

Okay, I think I read Jimmy's words wrong. He is saying that he's passing on Tippy's request that he blog about her new site. Ahhh...that's why she gave him access to her site.... Too bad, Tippy...

Week 1 here was a carb fest, so week 2 I got into a challenge in here as me pantys were getting a bit tight.

I did spend the day moving a lot of stuff, and going up and down this hill carrying stuff, and up and down stairs. My office is almost ready so I can make more video!

One more thing, Jimmy. I never posted on your site for valid reason. I did not want to cause drama and have LCF follow me to your boards. I did not post out of respect for your forum. I gave you the interview you asked for. And I offered you a free spot in my forums.
You may have had some concerns here. I really didn't mind you addressing any concerns but to be honest I did feel under attack with the implications of Kimkins. And it is my understanding that even you followed Kimkins with success. However, I did listen to your points of concerns and have decided to make some changes. If you feel you need to leave--well, best wishes.

So, I take it the not negative camp has some negativity concerning LCF? Isn't that against the rules?

What gets me most about Jeannie is that she is still doing the "Kimkins is safe! Kimkins werkt fer me!" lark.

Whether she is still in cahoots with Heidi or not, she's still singing the praises of Kimkins and that, by default, is just as bad.

Reminding Jimmy Moore that EVEN HE had success on Kimkins is just another way to say "Yeah.. but it works! See?"

The way I see it, Jeannie only left KK in a CYA move. She still believes in the diet plan, still promotes it and still defends it.

There is almost always a tiny grain of truth in everything that Heidi says (surrounded by huge piles of .. dookie, yes..) and perhaps there was a tiny grain of truth to Heidi's recent comment that Jeannie is still very much a part of Kimkins - though perhaps that only extends to her continued support of the diet.

What Jeannie does not get now, and may not ever get, is that Kimkins is DANGEROUS. 800 calories a day is still too low, period.

I'd like to see all of the "big wigs" come out and start issuing strong statements to that effect. Yes, Heidi is a big ole lying liar that lies, but beyond that.. the diet is still dangerous and people can, are and will continue to be harmed by that insanity until she's shut down for good.

I was really glad to see the things that Jimmy's posted recently.. that does a heart some good! Let's hope the message gets louder. Jeannie's site is really no different from KK in its willingness to promote a dangerous eating-disorder style diet plan and sing the praises of starvation.

Just my 2 cents of course.

[Katinsac]

first of all...how are you feeling today Mrs? Hope you are better...

I heard there was a lot of problems over at the Camp..I heard it wasn't such a nice place after all...How do you create a safe haven when you are taking people who have all been involved in the previous controversy? I think she should have just started up a site, advertised somehow and somewhere, where, no one knew who she was or Heather or Brian, etc., and gone on from there. Change you name, etc. Oh yeah, she is Pokey over there...lol

[Katinsac]

right, Morgan (and it is nice to see you here)...the difference is, Jimmy "saw the light" and figured it out, TT hasn't. I don't think she ever will. Now she is just saying any diet is welcome over there and if it is 800 or lower, so be it. I'm sure her "new" Stillman's way for her is still KK...she has just wised up a bit to not announce it that way anymore so she doesn't have to hear it.

I just read it, too. I haven't read those in a while and forgot how they made me feel.

I think I will temporarily ban her “accidentally”. It’s not the posts I’m worried about, it’s the PMs she might be sending. More dissention. Let me know about Honeybee too. I’ve noticed she’s on the edge.

This is when you and I got banned and it we did NOTHING wrong. Singinglass says every single post she made... and she's referring to me and I'd only made a handful. Ticks me off all over again. What a bunch of BS!

Good grief.

... "even YOU"

yeah... even all of the rest of us. That is NOT the point girlfriend. The point is we all discovered the truth.. and other than LCF, Jimmy was one of the FIRST to be vocal about it.

burns me... "even you" .... hate it when people say/do that.

She's trying to guilt him and drag him down to her level. Unfortunately for her, it's doing the opposite.

[Katinsac]

So, am I understanding the TT/Jimmy controversy correct? The problem is that Jimmy posted that 800 cal stuff and people over at the Camp was saying he was making accusations AGAINST the Camp's diet plans so he decided to leave?

Now doesn't that just warm your heart on a chilly, rainy Friday night?

Bolding mine:

That's Heidi Kimberly Diaz, a/k/a "Kimkins" over on the right. (The good-looking one is the naked mole-rat. That's Kimkins up above.) Does the petite and demure Ms. Diaz look like she's lost 200 pounds and kept it off for 5 years?

[Katinsac]

well, maybe now TT can go hide in her Camp and not have to worry about anyone but her natives (that is unless Jimmy does blog about his experience over there). if she didn't lurk here, she'd be a much happier camper and could sleep at night looking at the stars...

no he posted Kimmer commnet from diets in review calling TT her right hand and ask TT about it on the board.

the camp has no diet plan it is like LCFs any plan you want to do you can

[Katinsac]

well, I'd get PO'd too....all he did was bring over something from somewhere else about her and asked her about it, wow. but then again, TT doesn't like cut and paste...lol thanks

[Katinsac]

I saw a post over on the snatty sight where Kimmer said she had been notified about Christin and her family and asked everyone to pray for them...that was nice of her. Hope she is doing better. Maybe we will get an update tomorrow.
