Thank you Katinsac and Mayberryfan. When she doesn't show up it may just be the final slap in the face for some members. They'll probably have a better time without her anyways.

Hats off to all the ducks for all your hard work, perseverence and success! I've been following this thread from day 1 and it's just mindboggling.
lcinlv! Oh, please say you'll go. Please, please -- pretty please.

Well, indeed the worm has turned...looks like it's doing backflips...
If you highlight the rest of the reply you will see that written in white type is the following: "They will come naturally while you deal with SNATT. So, again, don't force low calories to increase - you'll stall for sure."

I'm hoping someone can help me. Last night I followed a link in one of the anti kimkins blogs (or maybe it was here, I can't remember) to a story about on line, fake identities and murder, I wanted to show it to my boss and now I can't find it. Help!?

Vickie,

I don't remember which blog it was on, but someone compared Kimmer's sociopathic behavior once to Sante Kimes who was a con artist and ended up killing some folks so she could assume their identities. Several true crime shows have profiled her. If that's the one your'e thinking of, just google her name and you'll have a ton of material!

HTH!

I would only worry about talking to myself if I were dressed in a Wonder Woman costume or conversing with the sock on my hand.

Since we know there is little to NO marketing online for the tragic chicken starvation diet, what if the whole thing was created as a way to shelter some of the Luper's income from taxation? Maybe MCD is a way to help write-off business losses?

I don't know. I'm NO tax expert. I'm just wondering outloud..
Elsie knows what Susie posted in that same thread:

Quote:
No mistake. sixty nine ninety five. I have the reciept to prove it. They charged it to I guess it's their candle store. Hopefully David will check his private messages soon and send me a refund. I told him I'll be happy to stay and try to help out around here. And I don't mean to offend anybody or crtiicize Bonnie. but I'm not going to just sit by and be charged for stuff that other people are getting for free. I work just as hard for my money as anybody else does.
Regarding the sheltering of income, if they were going to use MCD to shelter income, they would be processing candle receipts through the MCD, not the other way around. Doing what they're doing, they're adding income to their candle business. Either way, as long as they claim all the income from all their businesses, there's nothing illegal about that. People do it all the time.

Thanks Mayberry, but actually it was a story about a guy posing as a young marine in Iraq, and a young girl, and a romance and a made up dad...it was crazy! I knew I should have bookmarked it when I read it as I was going to wat to find it again. That'll teach me

I wouldn't get too concerned with where and when the KK meet and greet will be in Las Vegas. The weatherman hasn't said a thing about hell freezing over!
It just looks like she does because there is no one else around.

lcinlv! It definitely may be interesting to see which of the Kimkins players actually DO appear in LV. I really don't expect you'll see Ms. Diaz, though. It would be nice to have an on the scenes reporter though!

Welcome back, TerryC!

You didn't expect us to do nothing while you were gone, did you? Wouldn't it be boring to come back and not have anything fun to read?

Another Kimkins SAT Essay/Mathematics Question

Another Kimkins SAT Essay/Mathematics Question

Base your answer on this "what are you eating for breakfast?" post from Kimmer today

"I'm sipping a 100 calorie EAS shake now and I'll be making a 1 egg + 1 egg white veggie & ricotta omelette around 10 am (it's 6:30 am right now)."


A diet guru has been back on plan for approximately 21 weeks. She claims to have been at 317 pounds when she started. She states in her journal that she "lost 23 pounds" in the first two weeks. 19 weeks have since elapsed and she claims to be at 258 lbs.

Questions:
1. What is her weekly average for pounds lost and is this in line with her own claims that her diet will accomplish?

2. If she is eating like the above post states and she indeed "wants it bad enough" why aren't the losses reflective of it?

3. Given these statistics what is your estimate of the percentage of the population that will still swallow the hook, the line and the sinker and join the program?

4. Bonus question: Why does the diet expert not feel the need to post her measurements in the challenge threads she posts in when all other members of challenges do so?

Feel free to add facts and opinions and please show your work.

Thanks Linc! I didn't mean to insinuate that there's anything wrong with using tax shelters. I'm well-known for my conservatism, so I'm all for paying as few taxes as the law allows! What I meant to say is could losses from running MCD be a way to protect some of the Lupers' income? If they have one business that's going well (candle shop) and one that's doing poorly (MCD) they can show losses on the MCD business and protect some of their overall income.

Questions:
1. What is her weekly average for pounds lost and is this in line with her own claims that her diet will accomplish?
well to see my work you need to come look inside my head but for all weeks the average is 3.1 pounds.
remove the first 2 weeks and it is 1.89 pounds per week

didn't she claim a pound a day?

Oh and as an added bonus Cleo is down 61 pounds in 11 weeks on Atkins for a cool 5.5 pounds a week and her weigh ins are done at TOPS in front of real witnesses.




2. If she is eating like the above post states and she indeed "wants it bad enough" why aren't the losses reflective of it?

because that is just the breakfast menu silly and no beverages are shown

3. Given these statistics what is your estimate of the percentage of the population will still swallow the hook and join the program?

Well according to PT Barnum there is a sucker born every minute and if all those suckers are over weight, and if all are looking for a diet ,and all those suckers have access to a means to send her the ask for money and if those suckers can find the kimkins.con site ( another reason to remove any backlinks on anybody's site) ........ well

4. Bonus question: Why does the diet expert not feel the need to post her measurements in the challenge threads she posts in when all other members of challenges do so? she can't add that many big numbers together and keep it straight each time how many imaginary photoshopped inches she took off.

Feel free to add facts and opinions and please show your work.

I've been debating with myself about finding (stalking) them on the strip but probably won't since Heidi won't make it (car problems) and it seems kinda cruel to spy on the members. But to see a group of people walking around wearing S.N.A.T.T. t-shirts might be too much to resist. Thank you to everyone for keeping me so entertained at work.
