I have a flippin' IPOD, but I just now got to the point of putting a dang song on it...Well, I've owned it a year and only got its first song about 2 mos ago. I know that Jimmy has a PODCAST out there, but that might be just beyond my techy abilities...D*%(#$)@*$ IT!

Oh you poor thing. You're about to be told to start with FWK thread 1 and catch up! See you in a few months!

Yes, she was here. She was Kimmer. The Ask Kimmer thread is still here, I think, unless it was archived to keep people from trying to follow her insane advice. Yes, she posted pictures. One of them was Jaclyn Smith, IIRC!

When I joined LCF in 2003 she was on here. She had a beautiful picture in her Avie. A gorgeous woman, but of course, I don't know that it was her or not, but what I can't figure out, was what was her reason for being on LCF, if she wasn't who she said she was? She posted a lot back then and everyone admired her so much. She even posted what she did to lose the weight and so on.

I have no idea how long she was on before I joined.

[la.lady]

Yes, and her name was Kimmer on this site.

Dee,

Please do a search of this site and find some of the old Kimmer stuff when she was here. It is VERY eye opening. I would have NEVER signed up as a member of KK if I had known about her past here. Unfortunately, I'd never heard of LCF before KK.

It's easy to search, but if you need help, holla! We'll be sure to point you in the right direction.

OHYEAH--LMAO--Does 16 threads of a gazillion really count as the Readers Digest condensed version. If so, I don't wanna read the whole thing...I'll wait until it comes out on DVD....Inquirying minds always wanna know.

She didn't do Atkins. She made fun of it. She started her "experiment" and tried to get people to follow her. Of coarse, people were amazed by her "results" (that were never proven) and they DID follow her. She played on people with a fear of "fat" in their diets. This thing is 8 years in the making. Blows your mind, doesn't it?

She stole from Atkins and Mainly stillmans. Two different diets made by 2 different doctors. She felt it was the best of both. It was the worst of both, because the 2 concepts do not mix for health at all.

It's a mess. Trying to catch you up is going to be really hard.

She mocked so many people here. Alot of people got banned or got in trouble for trying to stand up to her.

She is actually very smart at "Playing" people. She even played the Mods here, and knew that she could get them to delete things or get other people in trouble by how she "Played it".

That's what is so amazing about the FASCINATION threads. It's the first time we could stand up and speak up and the Truth actually came out.

The rest is History and History in the making.

[SydneyN]

Dee, here is a link to one of the many threads that "Kimmer" was a part of. This one is about her before and after pictures: Hey KIMMER...I have to ask!

Hi la.lady...Heidi is a scam queen, i bet this was a set up for her diet web site, gain everyone's trust then leave, but she also loved the attention! It's hard to belive that there are people out in the world who would do things like that, but there are so many! Linda

Oh I know! I wasn't REALLY telling you to do that. I was just saying it's happened here before.

The problem with the readers digest version of any part of this story is that it's really hard to hear it and appreciate the significance or it, and not think it's just sour grapes or gossip made up by haters. It's UNBELIEVABLE. And true.

[DEEDLYNN]

Thank you Tooter....
So let me throw this out there....This is just Dee, thinking about Dee in this. But wondering what other's think.
You know that I was on the HOME PAGE and the MAY 2008 newsletter. So do you believe....that Heidi cares whether or not I continue with KK or chose ATKINS, or that she just needed someone "real" to put on these pages?
My answer will depend on whether or not I get banned from the KK site. If I get banned, the answer is obvious. If I don't get banned...it's not as obvious to me.

[wifezilla]

Here is the old ASK KIMMER thread....

Ask Kimmer!

[2big4mysize]

Dee Jimmy has an apology on his site explaining how during the podcast Kimmer lied to him about being Heidi. Seems that and all the exposee blogs and emails to him and the boycot of his sponsors finally touched something inside him and he altered his posistion on supporting the plan and the person.

[DEEDLYNN]

Syndey--Thank you. Does anyone know if the after picture in the avatar of that link is really Heidi....the after pic looks much younger....but then again...with 100 lbs off I look much younger...(LOL-Amberlee found my Thanksgiving Day Race pic...she is 3. She said...Mamaw Dee...was that when you were OLDDDDDDDDD? I said yes sweetie...that's when I was old....LMAO).

Dee she has your words she has your pics that is all she needs. She is still using Deni and Christin to advertize her site and plan even though they both have come out against the plan and her and have sent her C and D letters.

does that answer your question?

I never answered the other part of your question. (Dang this is hard) lol

I think she just had an "Ego" thing going on. She played this game (and it all was fake and a game) for the Ego. She is no stranger to the internet and knew how boards and chat rooms worked and people's personalities.

Well, Most people believed her and worshiped her (Gosh, it would make ya sick), anyways...People were always telling her to write a book or start her own website, etc.

Finally, a person who Did know how to start websites got in contact with Kimmer. The website was set up...Kimkins (By the way, someone coined that phrase here) That person became Kimmers partner. Well, to make a long story short. It became obvious, to the partner that Kimmer was a complete FAKE! Also that her business practices and ethics were all off.

The Partner got out.

Then the Woman's world thing.

*taking a breath* I'll let someone else catch you up from there.

HTH

Thanks wifezilla. I have saved it in my favs for some evening reading.
Ohyeahbabe---vintage naive Dee...I really thought you wanted me to read 16 threads, but I can appreciate that I won't get the real "gist" of it with the RD version.

[Katinsac]

well, Dee...I'd like you to read the 16 theads! I don't think you can get the whole story without going through them and having the feelings everyone here has had along the way. It might explain why you felt so defensive in the beginning. It is very eye opening. Give you something to do between the DANDR reading, lol.

IMO, Heidi doesn't care about you personally but benefits from your success story and active participation on the site, because it adds legitimacy to the site and is free advertising. She doesn't need to keep you there to keep using your pictures and your story. Even cease & decist letters don't stop her.

Heidi and her admins monitor this site very carefully and the only main reason you are not already banned is that she has to prove us wrong in your eyes. She also knows that we and the lawyers are watching. It doesn't matter whether you have said something wrong or bad - literally just being here has been enough on many occasions.

Once she reaches the limits of her patience, though, she'll boot you. Then when you ask about it she'll say it was an error, or say you are welcome to come back under certain conditions.

I am pretty sure that through the ducks hard work it was discovered that the after picture was taken years before. So really it was a before picture and the before was more of an after. Make sense?

[M.Dove]

Is the fact that Heidi's own son testified in his deposition that she never lost weight not proof enough? I don't understand why anyone still believes she lost weight.

[Jennifer]

Doesn't Catherine, Heidi's ex-partner, live in Malta? The one whose DH hired the PI? Not that I think CB is Catherine, just another way for HD to get a 'slam' in.

[DEEDLYNN]

Thanks for the responses. I can tell you, I know Dee well enough, that if I do get banned, there won't be an opportunity to say it was an error or that I can "conditionally" come back. That will be that. Not the type to go back and "beg", my friends know how to find me.

Yes, and that was my impression as well.
