Here's a Kimkins Timeline:

Timeline of the Kimkins Diet Scam Story

Whether it will answer all your questions, I don't know. But it will give you a general idea of what was going on when.

I was doing a search and came across CarbWire - Kimkins Diet Finds Support From Low-Carb Author Dana Carpender and was just wondering if Dana Carpender is still the big supporter of KK that she used to be. I couldn't find anything to the contrary.

.......

Denial – This is when the aggressor refuses to admit that they’ve done something harmful or hurtful when they clearly have. It’s a way they lie (to themselves as well as to others) about their aggressive intentions. This “Who… Me?” tactic is a way of “playing innocent,” and invites the victim to feel unjustified in confronting the aggressor about the inappropriateness of a behavior.

Can you say…..HEIDI!!!
Excellent post - Heidi all over. Of course she will not see it this way. ( DENIAL.... )

Oh good grief - I can't believe there are still links out there indicating JM's Kimkins support! I thought he was going to remove them? I haven't heard anything further from Dana on this, either pro or con. I do hope someone clued her in, and I really hope she clarifies for her readers & potential readers!

Not only is this a post of his singing the praises of Kimkins---but the kimkins link is an affiliate link.....

wonder if ol' JM is still making money off of Kimkins????

ETA:
I just did a backlink search for JM's affiliate link....he's got weeds all over the place....

Hey Jimmy don't you think it's about time for you to pull these things---unless you really are still making money off of Ol Heidi---guess John might find that interesting

there's NO way heidi would still be paying him any money after all he's said against her. he is probably "dead" to her.

(of course i don't know this "for sure" but wow, i can't imagine that she would!)

Nature's Bounty makes a Fish, Flax, Borage oil capsule (Omega 3-6-9). The nutrition label is the same as the Atkins Essential Oils formula.

I've never had a problem with fishy burps. But I normally take it after breakfast.

If you go to his post through the links provided in the carbwire post, you'll see that he's removed it, like he did with all his other pro-kk posts.

However, all the comments on his LLVLC post (pro and con) are still there.

I"m not sure he has any control over the Carbwire posts once they've been posted, but I have no idea how to get in touch with Carbwire to ask them to remove it.

If you pay a little more and get the enteric coated capsules, that eliminates the "fishy burps".

I was pinching pennies and found this out the hard way once. LoL Never again!

It's definitely worth it to pay a little more and not have to deal with those burps.

y'all are lucky---try taking 30cc of liquid cod liver oil 3 times a day....


but anyway---Dr Eades suggests the krill oil capsules---he also said one time that if you get the fishy burps it means the pills are old....at least I think it was him..

could have been Dr Briffa or Dr Davis---

The lab spokeswoman for Nature's Bounty and one other brand said, if you get fishy burps, they're not fresh.

I saw/heard it on one of those 20/20 type shows.

I have purchased more than one type of fish oil and that very same night had the fishy burps. Nothing seemed to work - chilling them, room temp, etc. But finally found something that works -

Coromega -- it's a gel... comes in three flavors -- lemon lime, orange and orange chocolate.

Did you ask her about it? I know she was very active on an atkins EZboard but I didn't check her stats there.

I never ordered it from Netrition -- I usually just look for a good sale on ebay and order it there. But Netrition's prices are good too -so next time I just might get from there.

Oh - I hear you about the snack thing - I can't take the orange chocolate ones because it tastes so good that it then makes me crave chocolate. And the willpower is weak in that area...

Hi Terry...thank goodness you're here. I didn't know where everyone went! Cloe is sleeping on the couch right now. She is enjoying a nap after making sure that I got up at 4:30am! She takes her job as my living, breathing, furry alarm cat quite seriously! I can think of worse ways to be awakened then to have a cute lil cat lie down on my chest and pat me cheek with her paw!

Agnes has had her coffee and is napping also...

You are right, there are much worse ways to wake up th
