An important note:
Kimkins is sold as “Better than gastric bypass!” Kimkins didn’t even work for Kimmer after WLS. As it has failed to work for her all other times she has tried it. Again and again.

When checking my blog stats, I noticed that many people end up on my blog from a google search on laxatives for weight loss. How sad.

Laxatives are not useful for weight loss. They cause loss of water weight. Not fat loss. The drop on the scale is not permanent. As soon as you replace the lost…
