I lost 20 lbs from June 18 to July 31st doing Kimkins. I am here now because I am only 10 lbs from my goal weight and I wanted to start bringing more vegetables, fruits, and whole grains back into my diet for improved digestion. But in all honesty, to really get you going on your weightloss and see some quick results, Kimkins really did work for me. It was great. I lost fast and felt fine. BUT this is not for people that are just wanting to drop a ton of weight and then go back to the old way of eating. I am one of those that if I don't see some quick results, I give up way too fast. It helped me get the motivation that I needed. I'm just bored with it and want bread again but am bringing things back on a healthy level...no pasta and white rice any time soon. And exnay on the desserts for awhile.
I don't see it as scammish. The cost was 59.95 for a lifetime membership. So if you ever get off the plan and want to go back, you can without having to pay again. The site gives you access to recipes and support groups beyond belief. If it weren't for my kimkins 'friends', I would have lost my mind! It was worth every penny in my opinion....but different strokes for different folks.

There is a kimkins team on SP for free, if anyone is interested in using the diet (Kimkins Followers).
I agree parts of it are scammish (esp the cost on the website) but for many of us low carbers, parts of Kimmer's plan can get us off a plateau.
If don't understand the low carb lifestyle, you won't be interested in this, either. But for those of us who understand the health benefits of controlling (not eliminating) carbs, this plan has its place.

Ya this sounds like a scam...don't pay any money to lose weight, just go to out and do it or if you are going to pay money get refered to a Dietician from your doctor!

I concur, I'm thinking it's a scam.

Have you used this or are you just promoting the diet? I read thru the site, looks kind of like a scam....
