Kimkins.com is a diet ripoff of the cruelest nature. Heide Diaz pretended to lose amazing amounts of weight in amazingly short periods of time. As people ponied up their membership fees and began to follow her lead, she ridiculed those not marching in strict time to her step. (Think Severus Snape with an acute glandular problem. Yes, she's a treasure.)
Hey, did I mention that in addition to a "killer" diet, for your membership fee, you also won these fabulous prizes: a dead thyroid, a flatline metabolism, Flamenco lessons for your heartbeat, and a "Bald is Beautiful. No really." t-shirt!
It all started tumbling down when the fabulous before and after photos she used with her site were found to be fakes. Since then, it's been one joyfully exposed fraudfest after another.
There is a lawsuit. Do join if you want to get your membership fee back eventually, and fatten a class action attorney's wallet to boot. File reports, complain, and most of all, stay away from, and warn others away from kimkins.com.
Pity the poor former kimkins members (and DON'T become one!) now at the mercy of the larger lowcarb internet community. Oh, they'll take you back and even "forgive" you for being wrong, so long as you promise to grovel low enough in the "gutter" as I think one properly self-righteous poster put it, enjoy your daily doses of "I told you so's, " and remember that they will never forget.
Even though grace is not extended, an appropriate response is apparently still expected.
