OK – So it’s May 1st and I have yet to see Heidi/Kimmer’s new updated pictures and stats.  Didn’t she claim to have a surprise for everyone, to be reveled on 4/30/08?  A “Good Number” on the scales?  Well, I’m still waiting to be shocked and impressed by her extreme weight loss.  After-all, she’s only (9) nine days away from her goal date (birthday)  – she should be real close to goal, by now.  Is it a coincidence that she has removed the “watch us lose” from the front page?  Where did all those losers go?  And how is their weight loss going?  Kimkins was taunted as the fastest weight loss diet, ever.  So where’s the weight loss?  Seems to me, it may not be all it’s cracked up to be – Maybe it’s just an extremely unhealthy diet that causes dangerous side effects, if followed correctly – OR, it’s just impossible to follow in the first place.  Therefore, no one really ever loses, at least not for long.   Or, should I have said, “They Lose Plenty”?   But it’s not just the weight…. it’s their health.

After a quick check at the Kimpound, I’ve found that Kimmer has yet to post today.  NOTHING!  And only posted 2 posts yesterday morning.  Nothing was said about her big reveal.  Maybe she thinks we’ve all forgotten…. She doesn’t know the ducks very well.  We never forget!  And it comes as NO surprise that she has, yet again, “come up short” on her latest claim or promise.  People who lie for a living just can’t keep it all straight. 

Hiedi/Kimmer, we’re still waiting to see the “New You”!   Come out, come out, wherever you are!!!

A Warm, Welcome Back!

Here’s the warm welcome I received shortly after publishing my first post in a month (see comment section of “I’m back” post).  It would seem the trolls are out in full force – ready to do battle – and just gunning for a fight. 

Well, I’ve had a little rest and am ready to go at it, if you’d like. 

 

I’m Back, 2008/04/28 at 5:38 PM 2008/04/28
 

Get Real
abc@abc.abc | 65.23.158.193

The only thing dark and dangerous about the diet has been the pathetic people with agenda’s trying to place blame when they have had other previous underlying eating disorders or psychological issues all along that caused them to take it to extremes.

From I’m Back, 2008/04/28 at 2:03 PM

So let’s discuss this:

Get Real, so what you’re saying is that all those folks who took Heidi’s advice and followed the diet exactly the way she intended and were harmed – all of them had underlying psychological issues and preexisting eating disorders???

Really?

I would have to wholeheartedly disagree with you on that one.  But, even if it were true (which it’s not) are you therefore claiming that Heidi WAS targeting those types of people?  Are you saying that she knew that those that would listen and follow her advice would do MORE harm to themselves by following this diet, considering how low in every category this VLC diet is?  It seems to me that you are saying exactly that.  That you believe that Heidi put this diet out there, knowing full well that she would harm others.  You are saying that those that follow this way of eating and took it to extremes (which is exactly what Heidi asked them to do) were already psychologically impaired and already dealing with eating disorder issues.  WOW! Now, isn’t that interesting?  Sounds like an admittance of guilt to me.  Why would someone, knowingly harm others?  Why wouldn’t she ask these, so called, psychologically impaired members to seek professional (medical) help?  I’ll tell you why!  Because she’s a Cold Hearted, Money Hungry, Con Artist that has no regard for her fellow man.  If that’s not “dark and dangerous” – I DON”T KNOW WHAT IS!!!

Good try, though, on trying to cause a ruckus.  But, next time maybe you ought to think through the scenario BEFORE you post a comment.  I think you confirmed my point on this dangerous diet.

 

 

 

 

 

I’m Back

Posted in kimkins on April 28, 2008 by kimkinscam

After a much needed break, I’ve decided to continue blogging about the dangers of the Kimkins diet and it’s founder (among other things…)   There are still many unanswered questions regarding the Kimkins controversy.  I feel it is still my duty to continue spreading the word about this dangerous scam.  Heidi Diaz (and her “followers”) will not continue to get away with advising others to cause dangerous health risks to their bodies.  At least not if I can help it.  This is a VERY important cause and I feel compelled to continue with my research and shedding light on this very dark and dangerous way of eating. 

So please bare with me while I get back on track and catch up.  And watch for more updates in the days to come. 

Sincerely,

MJR

  1. Mariasol,

I have added these dates to the time line. Thanks so much for your input. It’s very interesting to me to see the back and forth – cause & effect ??- going on between the two sites. It really makes you wonder how much Heidi has to do with MCD. Mjr

I’m not sure I want to be a “duck”

Ya know what? 

These past few days have been heartbreaking and painful to witness.  Nothing I could write here could come close to describing the pain I’ve seen some go through and it’s a terrible thing to watch. 

I think what a lot of people have forgotten in this fight, is WHY and HOW  **WE** got here.  Everyone involved in this crusade has a reason for being here.  A reason for putting effort into this cause.  And one doesn’t outweigh any other.   Let me repeat that: ONE DOES NOT OUTWEIGH ANY OTHER!  It’s sad to watch along as people dig at each other and poke at each others feelings and mental stability.   It’s sad to realize that some are held to a higher standard then others.  Especially when they have NO RIGHT to poke at anyone.  People make mistakes, they fall down, they stumble, but, that certainly doesn’t equate to mental instability.  It also doesn’t mean they should be trampled on, for their mistakes. 

What cracks me up, though, is that it only takes one or two posts by an “untouchable” (and I don’t mean that in an ugly way) to make everything alright.  WTF???  I really thought, coming into this fight, that I was surrounded by people who had “class” – “conviction” – “morels” and “standards” – my picture was inaccurate.   Blurry at best!  I can see clearly now that things are not as they seem.  I think, what started out as a crusade against Heidi Diaz has turned into a debacle before my very eyes.   To think that I’ve always maintained that there was no “mob mentality” ???   It breaks my heart to come to this realization.   Nothing is as it seems!  I have been naive in thinking that above ALL else, we were ALL on the same team and had the same goal in mind.  You can’t imagine how painful it is for me to come to that realization.

Ducky, if that really was you, I have to say, I’m disappointed.  That’s really the only word I can find to described my feelings right now.  I had held you in such high regard and at such a high standard.   And that’s even without ever knowing you.  All I ever knew was that you were “the one” – the one that everyone looked up to and admired.  To know that that statue has come crumbling down (at-least in my mind) has taken ALL the wind from my sail.   

I’ve made a few friends along this journey.  And for that, I am truly grateful.  I have learned more than enough, about consumer fraud and it’s effects on the human psyche.  I’ve learned “code” and lingo that I never would have learned had I not entered this fight.  I am a blogger – and that had never entered my mind before.  I’ve found out things about people that I never knew I could find on the Internet.  I’ve learned that VLCD are dangerous and that overweight people can and do have anorexic symptoms and behaviors.  I’ve learned what a healthy diet really is and how grateful I am for not having followed the Kimkins diet when I signed up in September 2006.   I’ve learned that you will not change every-ones mind, no matter how hard you try.  And that there will always be someone out there, willing – ready and able to scam you if you let them. 

As you can see, I take with me, a lot of new knowledge from this whole fiasco.  Knowledge is good.  The more you know – the more you grow – and I’ve grown A LOT! 

Thank you to those that have extended a hand to me and have shown me friendship.  It means the world to me!!!  I know I didn’t publicly get involved in this cause until much later than most – but I have been working hard to help.  I have a great amount of respect for most of the folks who  fight this fight and I walk away with that in my heart.  You guys are amazing and I know that because of your efforts, Heidi will be brought to justice for her crimes. 

If I should stumble upon any Heidi information, I’ll be sure to pass it along.  But, for now, I need a break.  I am confused and saddened by what I have witnessed these past few days and it doesn’t work well with staying focused and on task. 

God Bless,

MJR

p.s.    Mimi,  I just wanted you to know that I’m sorry you have had to put up with such hateful and ugly comments written by people from your past.  I wish you happiness, contentment and the knowledge that you are loved!!  It’s evident that you have many folks in your corner and I am truly happy for that.  I need a break right now – because I’ve gotten to the point that I’m angry every time I read comments from a select few and it drives me insane to watch along as they fill the minds of those that only want to understand, with such bull shit.  You are a hero, in my book.  You’ve stood up and taken the hits like nobody’s business and it does my heart good to see that.  But, it can’t be easy – and that’s why I’m so sad.  You are a pillar of strength and I am proud to call you my friend.   Hold your head high!  You’ve conquered demons that most would run away from.  I’m proud of you.

Kimkins – Magic Chicken Diet

kimmer_current.jpgbonnie-at-135.jpg

OK, I’ve spent 3+++ Days on this post and I’ve given up!

I need some help here, guys!

It’s like a full time job – going back and connecting the dots….so if any of you could shed some light on these connections, or add to them, I’d be more than appreciative.

I feel like if I keep going at this by myself, I’ll never get it (this post) up and posted.  LOL

So keep watching, as I continue to add more and more information to this post over the next few days.  I’ve only touched on very little of this massive, underwater,  iceberg.  I think there is much more to be found.

NEW ADDITIONS WILL BE IN YELLOW 

Here is the original post: 

Is there a common thread?  A common denominator? 

Let’s look at some similarities and differences between the  two and You Be the Judge!

Mariasol has done an amazing recreation of the time-line on the creation and development of the Magic Chicken Diet.  Read all about it here at Mariasol’s Blog.

MCD Time Line:

  •  9/23/02 – Bonnie’s brother registers his condle site candleboxcandles dot com through DomainPeople, Inc.
  • 6/08/06 – Kimmer leaves LCF and opens Kimkins.com
  • 8/01/06 – Bonnie claims to have started her diet
  • 9/07/06 – Bonnie registered her condle site through HostMonster
  • 5/02/07 – MCD website is registered
  • 6/10/07 – Bonnie’s husband, David places an ad at GetAFreelancer for a “CLONE” of Kimkins.
  • 6/12/07 – Bonnie’s 50th Birthday – She has lost 160 pounds in 10 months
  • 6/26/07 – The “Fascination With Kimmer” thread begins at LCF.  First post by “Paula Jayne” asking about Kimmer’s before and after picture.
  • 6/28/07 – Another “Texas Candle Factory” site is registered to someone in CA.
  • 7/03/07 – Kimmer’s Classmate.com picture found by “Tooter” at LCF
  • 7/20/07 – The MCD site is launched.   $19.95 will buy the first 200 members a lifetime membership.
  • 9/11/07 – Bonnie posts her first comment on her site.  She also trys her hand at marketing – by creating a couple of MySpace profiles and uploading pictures and videos of her weight loss success.  She has jumped in with both feet at this point.
  • 10/6/07 – Bonnie’s brother modifies his site through DomainPeople, Inc.
  • 12/9/07 – Bonnie decides to increase the “introductory” price to $69.95. (WOW- such a big jump for such a new company) Even though it is believed that there were only 20 members on board at this time.  And most, if not all were personal friends of Bonnie’s.
  • 12/16/07 – Bonnie’s magic chicken dot net site was registered
  • 12/20/2007 – The Lupers registered the MCD dot net site. 
  • 1/31/08 – Someone installed new software at the main MCD site and ALL 70 posts went POOF – GONE!  
  • 2/04/08  – Bonnie (?) modified the MCDdot NET site through HostMonster
  • 2/6/08 – Bonnie modified her candle site through HostMonster
  • 2/6/08  – Someone started a VERY UGLY posting rampage at the MCD dot net site.  It was apparent that the “ducks” had ticked Bonnie and/or David off.  The ramblings were painful to read and seemed to be written by a very disturbed person.  It stayed that way for a few weeks and then it was changed. 

Here’s something else:  Hulon Pate left a strange comment on Jimmy’s board on 12/14/07 – and was “called out” for being a “liar” by several of the ducks.  Could this be what spoiled something the MCD people had up there sleeves, that warrented  $69.95 price tag?  It was around this time that the price jumped from $19.95 to $69.95

Kimkins time line as it relates to the MCD site info above.  Most of what I’ve written here comes from old posts at Ducky’s, Slamboard and KK Controversy sites.  My point is to try and find a connection (in regards to dates) between MCD and Heidi.  For instance, cause and effect…. if something happened at KK, did it affect MCD in someway?? Or vice versa??

What happened to the ‘boys in the hood’?

Posted in kimkins with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , on March 7, 2008 by kimkinscam

UPDATE!

According to  Medusa's source, Fawn (Butterfly) is back at Camp.  Well, that didn't take long!  

I think Fawn just answered a bunch of my questions as to her motive in regards to her most recent RANTS.  Big Fat Lies.  The picture just gets clearer and clearer! 

Yet, I still wait..... to hear it from the horses mouth.  Fawn, if you're reading, I'd love to get a comment from you regarding my interpretation of your motives.

I've gotten no answers from Fawn, regarding my previous post,  so I thought I'd clear a few things up before I move on to the Magic Chicken Diet.

It has been posted on the FWK thread and at Bama's blogthat Fawn has decided to pull the plug on her blog and will leave camp so as to not cause trouble for the members there.  I am stunned by this information.   Was this the reason for all the BIG talk?  Was it fawn's intention to dare the ducks to respond to her crazy postings, knowing full well how they would respond, only to cry fowl and run away?  If this is the case, then I haven't given fawn enough credit.  She is smarter than I once thought.  With a single post at camp she was able to put an even wider divide between the ex-kk folk and the ducks.  Once again, the ducks are the evil ones and the emphasis is shoved further away from Heidi.  Was this the intent?   "Poor Fawn", says the members at camp!  "Don't let the anti-kimkins people win" !  These are the kind of responses fawn received after her announcement that she would be leaving.  WHATEVER!!!  What this latest development tells me is that there is more to all this than meets the eye.  

I certainly can't speak for anyone else, only myself. But, I would like to say that I have NO problem with fawn and her photos or alternative lifestyle. Both, are her business and she certainly has a right to do what she wants with her photos and/or her own body.My problem is with the flip flopping, nice one minute, nasty and threatening the next, fawn. I can't figure out if she is who she says she is (because it changes so frequently) or something/someone else. Sock Puppet, Defender, Advocate of Heidi and her site... or EX-Kimkinite for a 'REASON'. Did Heidi do something to fawn to tick her off? Was it her or someone else who stole her pictures and story for her (Heidi's) own gain? Or did someone else tick fawn off?

Or maybe, just maybe, IT'S A BIG FAT LIE!!!Intended to make the ducks look bad.  hmmmm - It could be!

Her own words, on her blog set off this firestorm. IMO, none of this (the pictures, the blog posts) would have come to light (or had much bearing), had she not rambled on the way she did. After all, wasn't it fawn who said "BRING IT ON" "IF YOU DARE"? I think the ducks just did what she asked, they brought it.   And Fawn ran away!  

Agentlefawn?

Fawns most recent rant (in red)!  My rant, in white!

“People may think this has nothing to do with color but I assure you, it does… at least in MY mindset it does.Ebony people do NOT play around..well most don’t and I am one of the Most.I am not one of those passive people, or one of those policitally correct people who tell people what they want to hear. I am straight UP and genuine.

From what I’ve read at Kimkins and Campcarbaway, I’d say you ARE (or at-least act like) one of  ‘those passive people’.  I have never before read such “sucking up” in my life!  Your posts, on those sites,  DRIP of being passive and policitally correct.  ….telling people (like Kimmer and Tippy) what they want to hear.  So which is it?  Straight up and genuine or Suck Up and Submissive?

I got my peoples, like I am sure we all do. I don’t drag sh-t out. If there is a problem or an injustice we act swiftly. None of this baby momma crap. I deal with with it immediately, problem solve and move on. Seriously. I choose not to go into detail, as that is my right to do so but let’s just say that things were brought to my attention, I contacted my people and it was handled swiftly. We DO NOT mess around. TG I have friends in high authority places and I will leave it at that.

Where were your Peeps when Heidi was scamming thousands out of their hard earned money?  Why didn’t you “take action” and deal with her fraud, swiftly?  Why did you “drag out” the sugary “fawning” of Heidi and her site,  when you knew she was a scam artist and was hurting your, so called, friends?  Or were these “friends” not the “peoples” you refer to above.  If you “do not mess around” when things are “brought to your attention”, then why haven’t your “peeps” gone after Heidi?  Why haven’t you gone “hoodie” on her?  OR HAVE YOU??


 Case in point….. One time I was driving in Colorado on my way to the movies and I was running a bit late and I hate to be late. The person in front of me was dragging their a– of deciding which wasy to turn and I honked my horn. This person in turn let me pass by and yelled out the window ” what the F— is your problem”Don’t you know that I stopped my car mid-way in the intersection and turned my a– around and went into persuit.We stopped at the next light and I took me a– OUT of my car and went to theirs. Yes there was three people in the car but do you think I gave a f—? Hell no, I yelled at them to get the hell out of the car and face me. no bs…. this is me.The person closest to me rolled up her window in fear and the male driver would not get out the car and the one in the backseat scooted away from the window closest to me.The light turned and they drove off. I got back in my car and calmed down, heart racing, ready to fight. (that’s what I mean by boys in the hood).
I’m shaking in my boots!  Oh, Fawn – if you were so tuff, then why did you keep kissing Heidi’s ass?  Knowing full well, she was hurting your friends?

Generally speaking……. when I share that you all, handle things one way and we handle it another way… that’s how we are and I cannot be more open and honest then that, seriously. It is not in my nature to be meek and mild. It is in my nature to be kind to people that may need help or uplifting so to speak BUT try to jump in my koolaid, girl please… its ON then.so my reply: No one who knows me well, would ever dare every threaten me. And if people jump in my koolaid, then dam it I am ready, bring it! I am not bragging, I am tell you the truth. I do not waste time bs-ing anybody, I am straight up hood on the Real but with a touch of class when it comes to people I care about.

Ok – which is it?  Not Meek and Mild, BUT Helpful and Uplifting…..OR Staight up Hood?  I am confussed by these two paragraphs.  It’s not in your nature to be meek and mild, but, it IS in your nature to be helpful and kind to those that may need it (or people you care about)?? So, my question would be, did you care about any of those poor people that Heidi shit on? Did you care about those that believed her crap and are now suffering for doing so?  If you’re not bs-ing anyone…. then what is your position on that?  If you’re straight up hood on the REAL (but with a touch of class), then what’s your take on Heidi?  And why, may I ask, ALL THE “FAWNING” AT THE KIMPOUND??? In person, there are times when I am professional and then there are times when my assertiveness or agreesiveness comes out when needed. That level of temperment really needs to be worked on, but let’s face it, I am who I am and do not pretend to be otherwise.

I will defend those who I believe speak the truth at the time, but let me find out for SURE they are full of s–t and then I am done.

Is this your way of answering my questions above?  Am I reading this correctly?  You defended Kimmer, who you believed, spoke the truth at the time, but, if you find out for SURE she is full of it, THEN you’re done.  Just trying to understand your thought process.  Maybe it would be best to come right out and tell us what your thoughts are on Kimmer (Heidi K. Diaz) – so that none of us have to speculate.

Online, I thought it was harder to handle situations but come to find out, it is NOT as hard as I once thought….. well I know it now.

where are you pictures? why did you take it down?

I cannot go into detail. I promised I would not. My word is my bond. If I tell someone I will not repeat specific information then that is exactly what I do. So I will answer your question in a general term.

A situation arose, and quite frankly I do not have the money to hire people for I live paycheck to paycheck like most people with a little savings that I just recently started, BUT I am lucky to know people in the legal system here locally and like me they do not mess around.

Of course when I came to them I was furious cause momma dont play that sh-t. It is one thing to share Accurate information and then I give credit where credit is do and that’s the truth but use something of mines that belongs to me, child please.. its ON then.

 ?????  Not sure I understand this!  So I won’t comment.

Summary:

A situation came up that something that belongs to me was used elsewhere on the net without my knowledge or consent and it was investigated in a matter of hours, shut down and handled with legal proceedings swiftly cause if it was left up to me, I would have been done something because I have a short temper but my people had to calm me down and sh-t.

Fawn, we know you’re TUFF!  You’ve tried to tell us so in SO MANY WAYS!!!  Just not tough enough to stand up, and tell Kimmer how it really is.   

Legal advice: Don’t ever put myself in a compromising position because it can be copied and pasted elsewhere.

This kinda stuff happened before but it was a story of mines and again I will not go into detail because that situation I handled myself. Again I didnt know my story was being used elsewhere for the benefit of profit and I immediately contacted that person and I assure you my story was deleted in five minutes by the other person who posted it elsewhere.

I do not play around. This passive/agreessive bs that people play… I don’t play. I am sincerely a nice person to people but jump in my koolaid or space and I will jump all over it without a second thought on the REAL.

Are you sure you don’t play?? Because, from what I’ve seen, with my own two eyes…. You play it (the passive/agressive roll) quite well!!

bottom line: I took down my photo on my blog by the advice of my legal people…. no not everyone speaks and behaves like me, short tempered and boys in the hood of it all, but they know how to handle sh-t swiftly which shocked the hell out of me.

It is a shame when one can’t trust people too much or at all on the net. Okay true that, sometimes I look thru rose colored glasses let’s say and believe that no one would do another harm… but in reality it is not always that way.

You’re right Fawn, it IS a shame – Kimmer is an evil woman.  She means to cause harm to anyone who gets in her way!

Medusa, know that I answered your questions to the best of my ability within the contraints and confines of people handling this situation which would have otherwise cost me thousands of dollars and girl I dont have a pot to piss on. So yes I obliged and gave my word and kept it. If I am nothing else,I am a person of my word, short temper and all. They did me a favor and I will honor that favor by keeping my word.

Not to mention I do not like to drag out the Baby Momma drama sh-t. If there is a problem, handle your business swiftly and move on.

Truth be told I was crying when this sh=t happened but ya know what? I will NOT allow a crap to deter me from my goals. It would have been Easy to have ate myself silly, as I am a big eater, but I maintained self-control and let my people handle the sh=t that was above my abilities and now it is done.

okay clearly I was not able to not curse too much BUT at least I didnt spell it out…. I do have faults to work on and that is a major one… learning to speak calmly without crusing. A work in progress.

I agree with you…. YOU DIDN’T SPELL IT OUT!  You only left us with MORE questions.  Questions about your thoughts of Kimmer.   You have left the Kimpound, you have received a refund, NOW, where do you stand on Kimmer?? Is she the reason you are SO angry?? Or something else?  Did she do something to piss you off?  Or was it someone else?  Did she use your pictures and/ or story?  Or someone else?  You see, to me, your inability to speak clearly – what is on you mind, makes me wonder about the whole passive/agressive denial.  I think you aren’t as tough as you’d like us to think.  I think you are afraid of the KIMMER.  I think, by writing this very long, hard to understand, post, you are really just trying not to have to deal with the situation head on.  I think, by speaking of constraints and confines….. and not being CLEAR – you are purposly keeping others in the dark, so to speak.    Why is that??

WHY did I “choose” to post and answer your questions as best I could when it was really nobody’s business and let’s face it, you are a stranger to me…. it was because of your accurate information that you posted about me on your blog… and your captions of the “way we were” was very creative and actually made me laugh because it was true and it was true about me leaving the compound and I believe in giving credit where credit is due.

yes this is a long post, but I am true to who I am… I am a longgggggg poster of the written word.

Too bad your longggggg post didn’t really say much!    If it had, maybe we (or I) could be more supportive.  But, as it stands – I have NO IDEA WHAT TO THINK!!!!

I will not speak any more on this topic again… remember I have restraints.

fawn. “

Fawn, these are a few of the hard questions I’m asking.  You don’t owe me or anyone an anwer.  This is true.   But, if you’d like me to take you for your word, then I’d like to “understand” your word better and I need to know more.  I’d like for you to enlighten me and answer my questions and concerns with straight forward words and comments.  I really would like to understand you better.
