Just wanted to share with y'all the consumeraffairs.com review of the kimkins diet and Kimmer They did a great job reviewing the orginal Woman's World article and the apology now. Several dieticians reviewed the diet in the consumer affairs article which makes on wonder even more about the strange wording of the WW apology.

Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Pickles: The real reason Heidi took herself off the "watch us lose" roster
Excellant post about why Kimmeer took herself off the front of Kimkins.com Anybody remembering the story about the 198 pound loss certainly would not be buying a membership from Kimmer as pointed out by Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Pickles: The real reason Heidi took herself off the "watch us lose" roster

Frindly Fire on a Kimkins allie? I think NOT!
A blogger has accused the FKW ducks of friendly fire in her words "In recent days I have witnessed a case of friendly fire – the wounding of a person who was simply trying to lend aid to the cause of taking down Kimkins and Heidi Diaz in the only way they knew how. This person feared detection and so they attempted to communicate in a cryptic and at times a seemingly nonsensical fashion. All such attempts are met with a measure of skepticism initially. That is only prudent. After all, this is a tale of intrigue, deception, impersonation … The stakes are far too high to simply accept all newcomers claiming to hold one of the keys to this puzzle at face value. However, not only wisdom, but simple compassion dictates how we respond to such messengers, particularly in the public eye. Well meaning people can and have been hurt by the reckless disregard of some of those intent on seeing this fiasco to its conclusion. A basic tenet that I learned while training to be an emergency care provider would serve us well here … First, do no harm.In this particular case, a genuine and viable asset has likely been driven completely away. We must entertain the real possibility that this person does indeed have information that could have a major impact on the final outcome of this proceeding.To the individual who presented themselves recently as Martina’s Martini on the Fascination with Kimmer threads within the Low Carb Friends forum, I offer a sincere apology for any unfounded accusations that may have been leveled in your direction by some of those intensely focused on this particular quest. These are good people who, at times, get a bit caught up in the moment. But friendly fire, regardless of the intention, is never justified. We simply must stop the fratricide if we are to distinguish ourselves from those whom we oppose."
Having been there at the time the initial exchange with Martina’s Martini occurred I really have to question the validity of this accusation of friendly fire.
From low carb facination topic here is the actual exchange as posted Notice MM posted not once but twice without any other posts from any ducks or trolls.
which can be seen directly below that first one. and for the ones who say the topic was censored i was there and those were not and you can see them quoted later in the topic by folk seeing them.
finally a duck replies nothing insulting, nothing anything a normal person would judge to be friendly fire.
and MM comes back with

not getting a reply MM posts another shot I lost 650 lbs on the magic chicken diet.

Oh Forgot the DUCKS,
Quack you people....Quack......
Dosent ANYONE honestly understand....THIS MATTER IS IN A COURT OF LAW IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!. Let the LAW deal with the whole situation..LIFE...IS TOO SHORT FOR EVERYONE TO BECOME CONSUMED WITH THIS DAMN ISSUE!

so 3 posts in 8 min and the only fire MM incountered was doubt about the 650 pounds and an actual nice reply to the grassy knoll drive by posting.
Martina’s Martini is the one firing on ducks and when fire is returned Martina’s Martini continues to fire at the ducks.
To accuse the ducks of friendly fire based on the evidence is an insult to all members of LCFs.

when is Kimkins not Kimkins
i recently discovered thanks to a commenter who was pro kimkins.com that many kimkins dieters do not follow the plan simply because they do not understand the terminology Kimmer used and are actually comsuming more fat then she advised. This could account for those who say they are healthy and losing weight while following what they believe to be kimkins.
In the diet it clearly says lean protein
lean protein is defined as less then 3 grams of fat per ounce of food so a 4 ounce serving of protein will have at most 12 grams of fat in it.
When one is making a kimkins menu that means using the egg directions of 1 whole egg mixed with 2 whites and then have 4 ounces of lean ham as breakfast would have only 11 grams of fat .
add chicken breasts bonelss skinless to lunch and dinner and for the whole day I have 17 grams of fat. Since Kimmer was promoting the salad spritzers as dressing and they are fat free even adding a pat of butter to the pan to cook the eggs and not a spray of PAM my total fats for the day are just 21 grams.
This is why so many bloggers are asking the folk who are not following the plan (such as DANA in my comments section discussing the fats in her foods) to please call their healthy eating plan something other then kimkins. Cause as we all remember reading Kimmers posts if your tweak it ( don't use lean proteins) it isn't Kimkins.

Message for all the I don't care Kimkins.com folk
You’ve seen the pics, you’ve read the antikimmmer sites, you know the Kimkins.com plan as written is nutritionally bankrupt but you say I don’t care. I'm losing weight and have friends on Kimkins.com well this message is for you
Anyone who says they are following Kimmer's plan is supporting Kimmer's fraud. If you changed the plan, used your common sense to ignore the parts you didn't believe, but still say the Kimkins plan is working for you then you are doing all new to low carb folk searching for a weight loss plan a disservice cause they are seeing you and your expressed example of healthy weight loss bearing the Kimkins tag as an endorsement for that Kimkins.com plan Kimmer has posted on Kimkins.com and is listed in the Kimkins topics elsewhere.
For all the former Kimkins.com members who had blogs promoting Kimkins still up, affiliates with Kimkins.com banners still flying. authors of articles still circulating the net, folk in the Kimkins.comnewletters you are still a billboard for Kimkins.com and you are steering by your own actions others to Kimmer.
Here is a great exchange of emails between Amy and Jill on the subject in case I'm not being clear about it. I Hate Confrontation « Kimkins And Other Affiliate Marketing Nightmares
The same thing can be said for using Kimkins.com for support and friendship in your weight loss journey even if you think Kimmer is a fraud. By being on Kimkins.com your support for the plan as written by Kimmer, the information provided by Kimmerher, and the actions of the management of Kimkins.com owned by Kimmer is implied by your membership. There can be no I don’t believe Kimmer, I don’t use Kimmer's plan I just use Kimmer's Kimkins.com cause I got friends there. Replace the word Kimmer with any hate group name and see if you’d use that same logic to belong.I think you have higher values and ethics then to support a fraud. Leave Kimkins.com and take your friends with you to another Low carb support site. Many Kimkins.com refugees are getting the support and help they need in healing their metabolism on Jimmy Moore’s site and on LCFs check them out
