I also have a cold/flu thing to top it all off. Just kind of blah and ugh...

This is scary, though. It sounds like Kimkins with an added hormone. ~shudder~

You can view the show here:

The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet » Blog Archive » The HCG Diet

Dakota521 had mentioned that she was doing HCG, and had done Kimkins in the past.

I haven't been able to watch the whole clip, so I don't even know if Dakota521 made it onto the show, but she was the Kimkins connection to this episode.

OMG!! I just watched the clip. That is positively scary. I don't know who Dakota521 is but I don't think I saw her. The idea of 500 calories combined with hormones that arrive in a plain brown wraper from who-knows-where...Oh my goodness...that is just frightening

Kimkins Reformation? « Say NO to Kimkins

Dakota521 was the young lady on the YouTube video who talked briefly about her experience with Kimkins. She was the one that mentioned today's The Morning Show, in the first place.

I don't know what you think but the Pro-HCG doctor does not look like she partakes of the weight loss secret that she is advocating.

I wonder why?

It wouldn't be a magic formula, but it would help me better understand how my body works.
Maybe you're just a freak?

I've come to realize that we are all so different and there is no "one size fits all" when it comes to our bodies. I mean, when my 140 lb 13 yr old sister can eat me under the table, you know it's not as simple as wanting it "bad enough"!!

You know...I couldn't help but wonder the same thing. It must be standard operating procedure to recommend risky weightloss methods while swigging Capt'n Morgan and horking sugar cookies....

Did anyone else notice, in the shot of the couple on the beach, the muscle in her right arm looked really weird. It reminded me of how strange my arms started to look when I was doing Kimkins.

I couldn't agree more Amy. Dakota seems like a sweet person who wants to believe the best about others...exactly the kind of person that Heidi Diaz preys on.

My computer that got soda in it on our Hawaii trip can NOT be fixed. So today I start fresh with a new computer that my warrenty covered. Kind of bummed we lost some stuff...but thank goodness I had the Geek guy back up my picyures..we lost some due to damage to hard drive...but we got most.

So if anyone has e-mailed me and has not heard back....that is why.
I will work on getting caught up tonight.

Linda,
Thanks for asking. He finished up his IV antiobotics and is on the road to getting better. We never found what was wrong with him. Scary.
Emily my daughter is having her operation this THursday. WE had to cancel it due to Cole being sick.
So if you could keep her in your thoughts. I would appericate it.

That guy drove me crazy when he said the HCG causes you to burn 2,000 calories a day. Um, hello, it's because you are only eating 500 calories a day and should at least be getting 2,500. It has nothing to do with the hormone!

I thought the same thing. And then when they said it affects the liver she said she wanted to see medical proof. How about medical proff that it works!!!

Dakota is obviously a very nice woman. It's sad that she believes tha Heidi might have changed. When you are a good person it's hard to believe that there are people who just look for ways to use and manipulate others. But there are!

I got into KK this morning when you all were having problems.

I did HCG back in the 70's and did lose on it.....wonder why I had to do KK now? lol....Don't think I'd try it now though.

I think Dakota is sincere and wants to believe Heidi and we know Heidi WiLL refund her to CYA.

Jeanessa. I know how it is to take care of a sick parent. I took care of both of mine. You will be so glad that you did. I also know how it is to be sick on top of that ...

I'm sending good thoughts and prayers to you and your mama.
