Three?

I know of two -- Christin and Deni -- that are very public and
appeared on the show. Other than that, there are dozens (hundreds?)
who have washed their hands of her -- and are quite vocal about it.


Becky was the primary admin moderating the site for a long time and also
has an anti-Kimkins blog now.

But yeah, there's a lot of exes besides the three of them - including
people who were fans over on LCF for a long time before she got her own
site and were subsequently banned for questioning the photos on the site.


She's quite a piece of work and her "confession" has a ring of
professional PR about it. One wonders what would have happened if
she'd sought that kind of professional assistance earlier. She really
would make an interesting psychological study.


Eh... lying sociopaths aren't all that unusual.

I find this one entertaining mostly cause I *wasn't* involved
personally; it's never fun when you actually *are* in a relationship
with someone like that.


But I think the mob at LCF would, too. They are dedicated -- and have
single vision lenses. Many's the time some have been told, "Boy! I
sure wouldn't want to have you get made at ME!" But I know one thing
for sure -- there's not a one of 'em that I'd want as a friend.


Oh, I wouldn't say that - some of them are kewl.

But there's a mob mentality overall on LCF. Some of the objections are
stuff as ridiculous as said by the doctor and nutritionist on the TV
show; objections for all the wrong reasons just cause objecting to
Kimmer is a knee-jerk reaction and the "in" thing to do no matter how
lame the objection.

Becky is three. I understand (from Jimmy Moore) that she was the
first one to quit Kimmer.

I guess it's a mea culpa in the shallowest sense. The kind that maybe
gets you away from prosecution, but doesn't save you from an
unpleasant
afterlife (if you believe in such things... I don't).


Yeah -- you got it straight.

professional PR about it. One wonders what would have happened if

Old school psychology. You study the sick to comment on the
healthy. I'm more from the positivism school. But the sickos make
better case studies, that's for sure.

But I think the mob at LCF would, too. They are dedicated -- and have
single vision lenses. Many's the time some have been told, "Boy! I
sure wouldn't want to have you get made at ME!" But I know one thing
for sure -- there's not a one of 'em that I'd want as a friend.


I like my posting at least as organized as Usenet. Can't read LCF, but
judging from your (and other) reviews, they're the proverbial club
that
would have me as a member (qv Groucho).

I remember her now -- thanks.

True -- but how many of them take it to this extreme? Even now that
she's thrown herself on her sword, she's faking photographs. It's
really mind blowing.

personally; it's never fun when you actually *are* in a relationship

Ain't that the truth.

But I think the mob at LCF would, too. They are dedicated -- and have
single vision lenses. Many's the time some have been told, "Boy! I
sure wouldn't want to have you get made at ME!" But I know one thing
for sure -- there's not a one of 'em that I'd want as a friend.

I wouldn't want to have to sort them out -- so I just wouldn't trust
any of them. Then you don't have to guess which one will stab you in
the back at their first opportunity.

But there's a mob mentality overall on LCF. Some of the objections are
stuff as ridiculous as said by the doctor and nutritionist on the TV

I love the "it's all about the money" argument. The fact that
"Kimmer" was preaching for years -- for free -- and only started
making any "real" money on this after the WW article seems to be lost
on them. That's a long wait for a payoff if it's "all about the
money."

I notice "Kimmer" is offering refunds now and her "victims" are
refusing them. Not sure what they hope to accomplish with that -- I
guess the LCF Law School didn't go into the duty to mitigate damages.
