Are you average? 2008-03-15 08:17:00 This is way off topic! I am watching the Today show right now, and this woman is talking about how to save money on cleaning your home. She said the average family uses 12 rolls of paper towels in a week.SERIOUSLY? TWELVE rolls? AVERAGE? In a WEEK? No way! I don't believe it.How many rolls of the quicker picker upper does your family use in a week? Really, I want to know!
It's All About the Lies 2008-03-15 08:01:00 The letter from John Tiedt to the Kimkins class action lawsuit principles outlines a long pattern of lies Heidi Diaz told to get people to join the Kimkins diet, to keep from having to give people their money back, to hurt people, and to cover her hide.Does anyone still support Heidi Diaz? I really have to wonder. There are people who want to continue using her site, but is there anyone left who is standing by Heidi Diaz herself? Does anyone call her a friend? A coach? Are there people who can see all this evidence of lies and still think she tells the truth ever?Heidi Diaz lies about who she is.Heidi Diaz lies about what she looks like.Heidi Diaz lies about her Kimkins diet details.Heidi Diaz lies about her weight loss.Heidi Diaz lies about Kimkins success stories.Heidi Diaz lies about Ki
Cleochatra Kicks Heidi Diaz Butt! 2008-03-18 21:09:00 Please go visit my dear friend Cleochatra and congratulate her for losing 50 pounds in 10 weeks.How did she do it? She ATE. Real food. Real fat. Protein. Veggies. What didn't she do? Lie. Lift someone else's photos. Contort her photos. Extended Diet Coke fasting. In other words, shes NOT doing Kimkins! She's controlling her carbohydrates and living her life. Cool!It has taken her half as long as Heidi
Diaz most recent alleged weight loss. Why is that significant? Because Heidi Diaz owns the :cough: controversial Kimkins diet website. The one that claimed "No faster diet! None!" The one that defrauds customers, promotes starvation level calories, chastises customers who go 2 whole days without weight loss for 'cheating', blah blah blah.Weight loss really can be accomplished by getting ri Read more:Kicks
Kimkins Lawsuit Update 2008-03-21 21:41:00 The results of today's hearing are that Heidi Diaz assets remain frozen, in anticipation of the refunds she will likely have to issue to her customers when the Kimkins lawsuit is concluded. The attorney, John Tiedt, is continuing to collect evidence of the following:1.) All Kimkins.com screenshots containing false testimonials by Kimmer;2.) All Kimkins.com screenshots containing false testimonials by anyone other than Kimmer;3.) All Kimkins.com screenshots wherein the use of laxatives was advised;4.) Any and all rumors about the Kimkins diet advocated by Heidi Diaz or any of her alter egos (e.g., Jessica Alba lost weight on Kimkins);5.) All instances wherein Heidi Diaz used an alter ego/another name to acquire assets;6.) Any evidence implicating Delaney Deaver in engaging in fraudulent con Read more:Lawsuit

SingingLass's Attention Deficit Disorder 2008-03-25 15:15:00 According to LCF administrators, SingingLass and LittleSina are the same people. LittleSina recently appeared in the What’s the Fascination With Kimmer threads, asking questions about – well – herself! 10 posts – here’s a random sample:In LittleSina's first post, she mentioned her own AOL page.Since her first post was just before the thread was locked, she posted again to make sure she wasn’t going to be ignored.Here is the one where she posted a link to her own AOL page.Realizing it's unusual for a newbie to pull off posting a link, she feigned surprise at being able to figure out how to do a link.She points out she can too sing - here and here, followed by a diversion. Then she took a shot at her boss, Heidi Diaz / Kimmer. I wonder if Heidi will appreciate the humor?The weird
Here is some interesting reading about Vitamin D Deficiency 2008-03-25 14:10:00 I've been reading the following site, created by The Vitamin
D Council: They claim that vitamin D deficiency is associated with a big stack of illnesses and disorders. There are links to several studies. They have a newsletter, and back issues are available on the site.You may want to have your vitamin D levels checked next time you have your blood work done, especially if you live in an area that doesn't get much sun or you spend all day indoors pecking at a computer keyboard.

Dementia and Belly Fat 2008-03-27 08:37:00 26-Mar-2008 News item:Middle-age belly bulge boosts risk for dementia later in life, study findsAccording to the study, excess belly fat is linked to higher risk for dementia, in addition to the well known links to heart disease and diabetes. The study points to increased risk but did not determine exactly why it is higher.My hope is that this will lead to other studies, particularly around the concept of controlled carbohydrate nutrition. Excess belly fat is a sign of excess insulin, so managing insulin levels by ditching sugars and starches could very well be proven to help prevent dementia. It appears that more and more, the low fat high carbohydrate diet deemed healthy and pushed at everyone for the past several decades is indeed causing us all to be sicker.

Is Aspartame Safe? Depends On Who You Ask. 2008-04-03 20:07:00 Dr. Briffa discusses this topic on his blog:New review catalogues the myriad of ways aspartame can mess up your body and brainTellingly, whether a study finds for or against aspartame seems to be intimately related to, err, who paid for it. In one on-line review of the evidence finds that while 100 per cent of industry-funded studies conclude aspartame is safe, 92 per cent of independently funded research and reports identified aspartame as a potential cause of harmful effects.Isn't that just awful? That corporations with deep pockets, lots of attorneys, and money on the line, can skew data when our health is at stake?I believe that aspartame is bad, but I still use it sometimes. Why? Inner brat, I guess. I occasionally want something sweet, without going off plan. A little voice says that Read more:Depends
Way to go, Manuel! 2008-04-02 20:14:00 Check this out!!!'World's Fattest Man' Drops 570 PoundsThe world's fattest man loses half his body weight - but still weighs almost 50 stoneWorld's Fattest Man Leaves HouseI have followed Manuel
Uribe's story for a long time now. I'm shocked and excited that he is not dead. He has lost over a quarter ton - not with risky bariatric surgery or a dangerous crash diet, but the Zone diet. Sane, healthy, controlled carb. WTG!I wish this man all the best for continued success, health, and a happy life with his future wife. He has far to go, but has come very far indeed. I am deeply impressed.
Here we go again... 2008-04-07 12:06:00 Heidi Diaz is still dispensing unqualified, hazardous advice. That website can't get shut down fast enough to suit me.These comments from Heidi Diaz were posted today at Kimkins, and quoted at LCF:Re:"I'm a Kimkins Newbie" Challenge 2008! 2 Hours, 15 Minutes agoKimmer:"I don't believe in starvation mode (you can read more in my blog). The whole point of gastric surgery or Lapband is to drastically cut calories. There was a woman on the Joy Luck Club (Today Show) recently who lost 125+ lbs after gastric surgery. Her surgeon was on the show with her. She is now a size 2 and described what she eats: 2-3 oz of protein first, then a small amount of veggies. If she's full after a few ounces of protein, she passes on the veggies. Her example of how many asparagus she could eat was 2-4, plus a mul

When Reading Internet Articles - Beware of Manipulation 2008-04-11 08:42:00 One good outcome from the Kimkins disaster is that a lot of people have gotten much more discerning about things they read. Is the material education or manipulation? Is it the truth? What's in it for the author? Is the author a real person? Who is making money off this article, or the product it casually mentions in the closing lines?Here's one brand new 'article', spreading across the internet like a virus. It is created by the accused fraud, Heidi Diaz of Kimkins fame. I started to do a phrase by phrase commentary but it got too ugly and snarky for me. When it comes down to it, this article was written by a career liar intent on making you feel bad about yourself in order to motivate you to hook up with her dangerous crash yo-yo diet plan. See how convincing she can be? There are some r Read more:Articles

The Disorder Next Door 2008-04-25 13:14:00 SELF magazine has an interesting article called The disorder next door. Their conclusion? Over 6 in 10 American women have disordered eating, and another 1 in 10 has an eating disorder.This was covered this morning on the Today Show. I found it odd they had Matt Lauer do the interview. Maybe this is unfair, but it felt like having me cover a wrestling match. LOL! Here's a link to the interview:SELF poll reveals 65 percent of American women are disordered eatersHere's an excerpt:The online SELF survey garnered responses from 4,000 women ages 25 to 45 to a detailed questionnaire about their eating habits and found that most disordered eaters fall into one or more of six categories. "Calorie prisoners" are terrified of gaining weight, tend to see food as good or bad and feel extremely guilty Read more:Next Door
What's Wrong With This Picture? Some of my observations... 2008-04-29 05:52:00 Check out the woman who forgot to put her dress on over her trashy slip. Her BFF should have told her! Boobs, belly button and undergarments (if any - we can hope) on full display. What self respecting woman would do this? Oh wait, they wouldn't. I can't imagine what kind of event they are attending, with the fashion statements displayed in this photo, complete with beer bottles and flasks. Any guesses?Of course, my real objection to this photo is the pig in the tee shirt. First of all - COVER THAT UP! Again, what person with any self respect would display themselves in this pathetic and sad way? He's no victim, though - he's the one doing the damage with that ignorant message on the shirt. His message is clear - if you 'beat' the disease called anorexia, you'll look like him. Better to ke Read more:observations
