Me??? I've been here since thread 1! I remember, during the Russian Brides phase, I spent hours here, reading, searching~ So help me~ went to Las Vegas for a short vacation after Thanksgiving and it took me a week to catch up!

If you click on my picture it brings up a slide show, with a little blurb under it about her 100 lb moment, which supposedly took 5-1/2 months to accomplish.

First of all I couldn't help but notice that there is no 100 lb loss photo. It jumps from 223 lbs (75 lb loss) at 4 months to 181 (117 lb loss) at 7 months. If you were so excited about losing 100 lbs that you'd run outside and shout it to the world (front door and back door), don't you think that you'd also make sure you had a photo taken of yourself at that weight?

Moving right along suddenly her weight plummets an additional 50 lbs to 131 lbs, in the very next photo, which is taken only one month later, at the 8 month mark.

So... it took:

1 month to lose 27 lbs
2 months to lose 47 lbs
3 months to lose 67 lbs
4 months to lose 75 lbs (that's a loss of only 13 lbs that 4th month)
Then she loses from 223 to 181 (42 lbs) in 3 months - for an average of only 14 lbs per month
but requires only 1 month to lose an additional 50 lbs?!

We all know that weight loss does not speed up as you get closer to your goal- instead it becomes more difficult and slower.

What happened here? How did she suddenly manage to drop 50 lbs in a month after her original 27 lb/month loss slowed to 20 lbs per month, then finally slowing to 13-14 lbs per month for 4 months?!


Something is rotten there, and it's not just the nasty canned chicken.

Excellent catch there madam! I am so glad you took the trip to the Magic chicken Kingdom. Hey, next time will you bring me a shirt back? Just kidding. I would rather have a stuffed chicken.

Hi Pooticus! Does this mean we get more pics? The last ones were great in showing the photo tricks.

You could be right Tanner.
But I am thinking this allows her to use the corner "fast cash joe's". Maybe Heidi is using the two check payment as a way to use one check at her bank account showing new members as paying and then using the second check as way to get some money into her MAD (as in Mad as a hatter) Fund.
Heidi's bank accounts are frozen as well as paypal, so she doesn't want someone to pay by paypal and she probably doesn't want to do business solely with a bank either. But I thought she could be trying to confuse the paper trail by using one check as a member's payment tracking and the other as her own stash of funds.

OOps!! then I'm sorry. Did you take some time off for a while and not post?

At any rate you've had your ups and downs in this thread, but you always come back like a trooper, and for that I give you a lot of respect.

[cheri]

We have gotten a lot of complaints from people today about this thread... I must remind you all that we do not allow people to be rude to others. LCF is not the place for that. Please... when you post to others make sure you post with respect and treat others how you want to be treated... If you can't do that then please please refrain from posting. There are a lot of hurt feelings and when that happens the thread goes into a really bad direction. If anyone sees another LCF member responding to them or someone else in a rude and harrassing manner please do report it and let us know. You can do this by clicking on the triangle with the exclamation point inside it on the bottom left of the post. Also when reporting.. remember that if there is a problem it isn't that admins are "letting" it go on. That is NEVER the case.. we just haven't seen it yet and that is exactly why we have a report a post button. Remember that we are people too and it is upsetting (at least to me) to be accused of allowing people to be bullied... so when reporting a post.. please just give us the information and the post and we will take a look and take care of the problems as soon as possible...

We really do appreciate everyones help in keeping this site nice and as drama free as possible...

That makes sense. She also may not be getting enough business and people have complained that the price is too high. It looks like she's doing flex pay like the shopping channel. That way it doesn't feel like you're paying as much as you are because it's not in one lump sum.

LoL 2B.... I do think I may have given y'all a day off here or there along the way...

Don't worry, there won't be a pop quiz or anything like that, unless we need to help update a newbie or something...

Yes that ignore button is so handy.

Didn't John T want screen shots of her doing stuff like this? Did anyone send the kk newsletter to him with screen shots and links to the original content sites?

that movie and I couldn't stop thinking about it once I heard everyone saying Bonnie, Heidi, Heidi, Bonnie UGGH!

I know people get away with murder all the time.

[Leashy]

Wait, who is Bonnie anyway? I've been out of the loop for so long. I've seen the MCD website and at the time everyone thought it may have been TT starting it? Now the owner and Heidi are connected somehow? I'm so lost

delurking duck devotee..

Hi Ducks..

I've read every word every page in the 15 threads.
The ever morphing Heidi saga was/is certainly spellbinding...
but it's you. you women.

Your accomplishments, much unsung, are staggering in their unfolding.. their effort.
reading about them, educating myself, warning others, is the very least I can do.

and as a side note... thanks so much for your 'color' commentary..
filling the spaces between the mindnumbing ohmygodno incomprehensible facts.
I haven't laughed this much, this hard, this often, in years.
just for that alone..I am in your debt.

don't ever doubt your efforts..
know you are saving lives, enriching others, illuminating all..
one person at a time.

and in my book..
Heidi may be the subject....but you are the real story.

I actually read through "most" of the FWK threads not all, I must admit. BUT! There were so many wonderful blogs of people sharing their stories and revealing the truth behind KK that I felt I myself had to do something even though it may have been small potatoes compared to what you ladies did! This is why the "Say No to KK" is proudly displayed at the beginning of my blog.

Heidi was pretty sure I couuld have people follow me to her new fall back group. She told me in PM that she had one set up and if it happened she would need certain members to help get things moving there.
The thing is...I still think MCD is Heidi'....

Amy, have you sent a copy of that to John?

You all who have been here for every thread know the "ins and outs", and sometimes it seems like a foreign language to me. My ex (aka Martina's Martini, who thought he was too smart to be discovered) read EVERY thread, every blog, all of it. Only someone with nothing else to do, and no life, could catch up this far in the game.

I can understand that some get irritated by new people coming in and asking what has happened. It can be handled a lot nicer though. I know that I have often felt like I didn't belong, and that some of the old time posters here, didn't really accept or welcome newbies. That's one reason I quit reading a few months ago. I couldn't keep up, and didn't seem to fit in. We all have one common goal right? To see Heidi put out of business and for justice to be done. It doesn't help the cause, when "civil war" breaks out. I imagine that Heidi and her cronies, (or is SL the last to get a clue?) enjoy seeing people bicker and fight here.

I hope no one jumps on me for giving my opinion. I know I have not been here the entire time, but I was a member at KK, I have contributed to this lawsuit, (and no John, it's not about the stupid blinkies.... and get a life and leave me alone.) and I want to see Heidi pay just as badly as the rest of you.
Excuse my little side remarks to my loser ex, but he's watching for every post I make.

Can't you just agree to disagree? It doesn't seem like anyone is ever going to back down, or agree with "the other side".

Respectfully, and hoping not to be jumped all over, Trista

Don't feel bad, I don't get a lot of the jokes either. I don't get irritated about folks coming in and wanting a recap without going through all 15 threads, although I admit that I went back and read through every single one when I first came here. The links that were posted serve as a good overall picture of what's happened, and should be helpful for those that do not have more time.

I hope you feel welcome here, Trista. I've enjoyed reading your posts and hope you stick around.

We DO get a bit cantankerous now and then, but that tends to happen to people when they are constantly called haters, lynch mobs, and negative nancies.
