the Kimkins site is still up and running with a new easy payment plan. In my opinion, there are many many bad diets out there - this is just one. This woman based her entire business on totally false information. People trusted her and trusted the other individuals involved with giving information on the site. I lost faith when I saw that people were posting challenges to go days without eating at all - and NO-ONE from the site seemed to care or notice that this could be an issue.
She lied about her weight loss and profited from information she did not obtain herself. She is not a success story, nor a doctor, nor a nutritionist. I give advice about diets everyday, but I never claim to have done them all nor do I tell people that I have special knowledge. Information that I tell people can be got for free from studies, experiments, textbooks, etc. She is a liar. She lied. She took peoples money based on her lies. I believe that her crime counts as one of Turpitude.
Well, it seems to me aliciamarie82 likes to be LIED to.
Someone had the time to give a thumbs down to my comment.
The severely obese are the most at risk. They are the ones who will follow the diet for too long, and their side effects will be the worst. It is obvious from this video that the diet does not work, as even if Heidi lost any weight she did not keep it off as she had publicized. When you are selling a diet, you'd better practice what you preach.

People should be ashamed of themselves. Invading someone's privacy because the diet failed for you or caused a side effect. NEWSFLASH, all diets cause side effects, some minimal and others more extreme. No one held a gun to your head and forced you to join the kimkins site or to even do the diet. This diet works wonders for people who are SEVERLY obese, not people who need to lose 10 pounds to fit into their party dress for the weekend.
AliciaMarie82, You should be ashamed of yourself. Making excuses for a SCAM artist. This woman Heidi Diaz is absolutely despicable.If you knew anything, you would know that even obese people can die of starvation. Heidi made over a million dollars based on a BIG FAT LIE! The diet is a death wish. It is made up by a con artist. Wake up out of your SNATT. She never lost any weight.

AveGirl, you should really read comments more carefully. First off, I never said that obese people couldn't die of starvation. What I said was that ALL DIETS cause side effects no matter what type you choose to go on. Everyone's body is different. Do you know Heidi Diaz personally to call her despicable? How would you feel if people you worked with called you despiscable when they don't even know you? Apparently, this diet did not work for you. So I'm giving you a big, fat THUMBS DOWN!!!!!
I do know Heidi Diaz personally through private emails. I sold the product as I DID lose weight. That is not what this is about. She recommends a multi-vitamin and a VLCD. Yes, I know her well enough to call her despicable. She provided me with false information to promote the diet. She LIED to me personally. You are INCORRECT in making a blanket statement that all diets cause side effects,a properly balanced diet should only have the side effect of weight loss and/or maintenance.

you all are fucking retarded you know that? you can be big and have a diet program but i mean how THE FUCK IS IT FALSE if its working for other people... i mean isnt that the point? you guys are a bunch of fuck tards
Tigler: "you all are fucking retarded you know that?"
Relying on insults intread of logic or facts? Pathetic.
"how THE FUCK IS IT FALSE if its working for other people."
Even my 1st yr statistics students can answer that. What does "work" mean? Losing weight? Well, anorexia and bulimia cause weight loss too. Do you recommend them? I've had anorexic patents who were near death.
"isnt that the point?"
No, the point is to be alive and healthy. Ask any physician why one should diet.
Tigler17: "how THE FUCK IS IT FALSE if its working for other people"
Who are these people? Can you prove that they weren't losing weight because of malnutrition or illness from the diet? Do you even know what a blood profile is?
With all these successes, why did Heidi STEAL photos from a Russian bride site for her webpage? And why did she lie to her own rep? Watch the YouTube video from the Mike & Juliet show.
Try learning the facts before posting something stupid, Tard.

bryguyf69 "learn the facts?" lol wow... how do you know i dont know heidi personally? hmm... maybe i do know why she lied as to her rep... maybe your just a big mouth fucking loser who needs to get his ass whooped
I don't see anyone claiming that you don't know Heidi. No one cares. YOu can make any claim you want, loser. It's your responsibility to prove your claims, and not for bryguy to assume. No one cares about your maybe's.
As for facts, he was referring to medical and proven facts. You provide none. Only insults. Unless it's proven, why should we assume that there are healthy success? Especially since the fraud is evident.
simonsrocks: "how do you know i dont know heidi personally? hmm... maybe i do know why she lied as to her rep"
So what? What does that have to do with the diet's efficacy? HOw does you knowing ensure the health of her victims? She probably lied because she's a fraud. Simple.
What does your social life, or lack of, have anything to do with anything? Why do you think we care? Okay, you know her. So go socialize with her because she seems to be a pathetic lonely loser who prey on women.
simonrocks "how do you know i dont know heidi personally? hmm... maybe i do know why she lied as to her rep."
And why do you think I, or anyone else, would care? For all I know, you are Heidi. Or her plumber. Or a Samoan wrestler. Who cares? Re: this diet, all I care about is the science and research behind it, the health of my patients, and truth in advertising. Kimkins fails on all counts. How pathetic that you think insults and who you know hsd sny relevance.
That lady is a scam artist, I don't think this video is wrong. She claims to be someone she is not, now THAT's wrong! A well balanced-diet with additional multivitamins will no cause ANY side effects, I just feel bad for those who are desperate to lose weight and follow any diet without doing more research. This is just very unfortunate :(
It's not wrong because the video had a bearing on her scam. She was grossly obese but presented herself as a success story (she may even have been buying foods the diet forbids). That video is as valid as surveillance videos of disability recipients playing tennis, or welfare recipients wasting money. It is relevant evidence.
Oh really? My classmate has cut her calories by 15%, watch her glycemic index and eats a balanced diet. No side effects. My mom was on Weight Watchers. No side effects. So "ALL DIETS cause side effects," huh?
Looks like you studied nutrition at the same school Heidi did. Hah.
> Do you know Heidi Diaz personally to call
> her despicable?
I didn't know Charles Keating, Charles Manson or Hitler either. So what's your point?
not all diets cause side effects unless they are done correctly ie. a balanced diet. the only side effect is the weight loss ;) This diet was revised by several dietitians and it has been considered unsafe, I really hope she has made the necessary adjustments on that kimkins diet...
Oh? Is that all it's about to you? Heidi gave false and dangerous information. On The Mike & Juliet Show, there were examples where she casually told women that menstrual irregularities were normal. "NEWSFLASH" Even as a first year med student, I know it's not. THAT'S DANGEROUS AND FRAUD.
Even her paid PR rep couldn't defend her. Yet you are.
I absolutely hate kimmer. One of my friends almost DIED because of her "diet." She is fucking 14, and she had almost no hair (It got so bad she started wearing a wig) and she kept passing out and crap in class. Doctors ended up saying she had an eating disorder. She's been done with it for a year now, and she still has trouble eating food.
Would you happen to have the KTLA video report Part 3 of the series? For some reason everywhere I looked has an ms-asf or asp file which I cannot view. Thanks.
So called scam? You been hiding under a rock? Kimmer has been a scam artist for YEARS. So glad her lies and deception are finally catching up with her. Karma is a bitch, baby! Wooooo!
As a society, our body image has become so twisted that we are willing to endanger our health to "lose weight." It's pathetic how much we insult people who are even a little heavy. I'd love to see this society come around to a little more of a compassionate and loving view of ourselves instead of hatred and anger toward ourselves.
It's not that. It's the fact she LIED about her own weight and gave unhealthy diet advice in exchange for money. She's the very defenition of a hypocrite. She claims to be this weight loss guru when she's just a fat slob who scams ppl. As someone studying health and wellness. All I can do is retch at her complete lack of ethics. Kimmie has never studied nutrition a day in her life. Her "diet" advice is basically encouraging anorexia.

Regardless of the so-called "scam", I DID lose weight very quickly on Kimkins! I will be forever grateful for that. No one can take that away from me.
Of course you did. It's a VLCD and people always lose weight on a VLCD. People in Africa lose weight on a VLCD, but they call it starving and malnutrition. It's not "so-called" scame. It's a scam. It's got mounting evidence. And people lose weights on all sorts of plans that don't endanger health. Kimkins as Kimmer promoted it is NOT safe, and the testimonies of Kimkins Survivors (google blog search that) is telling. Watch the KTLA report for 10/2 and 10/3.
um...ooooohweeee, everyone loses weight on this diet. It's the perferred choice of all anexorics and innocent people who cannot afford to eat the proper foods.
You're the type that will drink poison kool-aid if you thought it would take you to heaven. I swear, some people are just plain pathetic.
I realize that she lied, I am sure she had her reasons but the diet works and it is the only one that has ever worked for me..

How is it false?
1) The photos she used on her website were FALSE. The had nothing to do with the diet. They were Russian escorts.
2) Heidi used a FALSE identity. Even her own rep was lied to. Watch the YouTube video
3) She gave FALSE medical advice the contradicts what trained experts say
4) She FALSEly claimed personal success with the diet. Look at this video. That's success?
Before calling calling us tards, get an education, moron.
