I am totally out of writing mojo, even about Kimkins these days. The latest on the Kimkins lawsuit is that the 3rd deposition of Heidi Diaz has been completed and went well, and the 3rd amended compliant has been filed. If you have never read the complaint, you should. Lots of evidence presented in…

2kidsandapup, you’ve been robbed. Heidi Diaz lifted one of your pictures for her blog, where she promotes the allegedly fraudulently marketed Kimkins diet. Very nice photo! Is the recipe yours, too? Looks delicious, though not something allowed on the Kimkins diet.

Here’s the source of the…

SingingLass keeps referring to what Heidi Diaz did as using ‘model photos’ to represent her diet plan, and says that everyone does it. I still think that’s completely irrelevant, but one more problem with that argument is that companies that use models to promote their products HIRE those models….

A Kimkins member has asked for a refund on the Kimkins message boards, after being ignored by Heidi Diaz in email requests. Note: Singinglass, an admin, claims the member never tried to contact Heidi, so either Singinglass reads Heidi’s emails (and as culpable than we thought!) or she believes a…

This picture is part of a banner on the Kimkins site. Wouldn’t you want to go on a diet where you could eat like this and still lose a ton of weight? (Actually you can, but not on Kimkins!) Those pictures stolen from other web sites to lure dieters into paying $80 just to find out that you don’t…

In Kimmer’s own words, on LCF:
Kimkins is 1992 Atkins, except minimal fat for max weight loss.

Kimmer Experiment is Stillman’s.

She ripped off 2 diet plans. Then she used her plan behind the plan to make them so unhealthy that people have gotten seriously sick following her advice.
