Kimmer Blathers About Low Thyroid 2008-06-22 13:17:00 Here's a case where Heidi Diaz / Kimmer may know what she's talking about. In a recent blog post, she reviewed the symptoms of low thyroid. (She lifted a thyroid image from here and her words from somewhere else but failed cite her sources. Figures.)What stood out for me was the fact that the Kimkins diet causes all those same symptom, and the Kimkins Survivor blog is filled with accounts from peo

3s for basic brain function

Heidi Diaz - The Only Person Happy About High Gas Prices 2008-06-30 11:30:00 Surprise! Due to the high price of gas, the Kimkins Vegas meet-up is 'postponed'. Raise your hand if you saw that coming!Heidi
Diaz doesn't have to come up with a creative excuse for not showing up for her own party. If she'd shown up, she'd have had to explain why she can't lose weight on her very own high-speed extreme diet, and she'd have had to actually starve on her own Kimkins diet plan at p Read more:Happy

To the Kimkins member struggling with skipping heartbeats and dizzy spells 2008-06-29 20:29:00 Please tell your doctor exactly what you are eating. He will not think to ask you specifically because you are above your target weight. It could be from starvation, muscle atrophy, low thyroid, or adrenal fatigue. All can be caused by the Kimkins diet. I know you don't want to hear that it's the diet, but sweetie... the diet isn't even working for you! Transition to something that's better for yo
More photonapping... meatloaf muffins 2008-06-27 20:46:00 Here's the meatloaf picture that Kimmer, accomplished photonapper, Kimkins diet 'creationer', posted on her blog a few days ago.
Who did Kimmer photonap this time - part 2 2008-06-27 19:30:00 Thanks, Haalo, for the heads up that she removed the photo she stole from you, and used a photo she stole from here. I see she's also used a stock photo from here. I had no idea she was a Kimorexia reader! Well, not today anyway!
What did Kimmer photonap this time? 2008-06-27 15:26:00 This time it's a soup photo, lifted from here. The photo was flipped and cropped to lop off the bread.She didn't lift the receipe from that site, though. Too bad, because it sounds better than hers.
2kidsandapup, you've been robbed. 2008-07-22 12:17:00 2kidsandapup, you've been robbed

Looks delicious, though not something allowed on the Kimkins diet.Here's the source of the recipe photo: gleeful woman holding the scale is a stock photo. Maybe Heidi paid for that one. (Don't laugh.

Another thought about those model pictures... 2008-07-13 12:36:00 SingingLass keeps referring to what Heidi Diaz did as using 'model
photos' to represent her diet plan, and says that everyone does it. I still think that's completely irrelevant, but one more problem with that argument is that companies that use models to promote their products HIRE those models. They don't steal them without consent. Read more:thought

I'll Answer the Refund Question that Heidi Diaz/Kimmer and SingingLass Are Avoiding 2008-07-12 07:53:00 A Kimkins member has asked for a refund on the Kimkins message boards, after being ignored by Heidi
Diaz in email requests. Note: Singinglass, an admin, claims the member never tried to contact Heidi, so either Singinglass reads Heidi's emails (and as culpable than we thought!) or she believes a known liar. Neither look good for her.The member said (quoted from multiple posts - you can tell she's Read more:Refund

Kimkins Deceptive Marketing - Food Pictures 2008-07-10 08:28:00 This picture is part of a banner on the Kimkins site. Wouldn't you want to go on a diet where you could eat like this and still lose a ton of weight? (Actually you can, but not on Kimkins!) Those pictures stolen from other web sites to lure dieters into paying $80 just to find out that you don't really get to eat that way at all. Don't complain, though, because if you want to eat like the plan she Read more:Marketing

mariasol: Kimkins Still Pushing Very Low Calories 2008-07-10 08:16:00 Just read a post by Mariasol about how very little has changed with Kimkins. A member posted a suggested menu to a newbie:mariasol: Kimkins Still Pushing
Very Low Calories
As far as I can tell, it's a menu that satisfies the basic Kimkins principles, yet it is still too low in calories, fat and nutrition. Worse, when this person stalls, I can just imagine the advice she'll get. Skip the bacon, it's
