We are working very hard to get this site shut down.
this plan is nutrtionally bankrupt and the lies told by the founder about her imaginary weight loss make following this nuts.
She was morbidly obese claiming to be 118 pounds. When deposed she admitted she lied and the success stories on her site were fakes with pics she took off the net.
You know when the creator of a diet can't follow it to shed her own body fat it isn't something you should be the guinie pig for.
Do your homework, folks.
The Kimkins Diet is a dangerous scam.

Say NO to Kimkins!
Sigh this blog is trying to pawn off their fraudulent and dangerous very low calorie diet scam.
Very low calorie diets should only be done under medical supervision for obese people whom meet specific criteria and only for a short time provided essential nutrients are met. This diet is none of the above hence it's dangerous potential, you have people living off of water or diet drinks alone in their desperation to lose weight fast. Rapid weight loss on it's own carries a lot of risks and needs to be monitored closely.
This diet has made lots of people sick especially with their mental views towards food where these people end up afraid to eat, whats worse is that it has been heavily marketed to teenagers as well. On their forum they had a 14 year old girl struggling to eat only 500 calories per day, she wasn't even over weight!
The founder of the diet (Kimmer) lied about her own weight by basing this diet around her own alleged success at losing the weight and maintaining for 5 years, when she is indeed obese. Her own "after" photos that she used were fake and she also put up a bunch of success stories, which turned out to be almost all fake, with photos stolen from a Russian bride website.
In her paypal account, Kimmer made 1.2 million in one month alone from taking advantage of people desperate to lose weight.
This scam called kimkins has made it to national TV across three different channels and Kimmer has already had to go into court for a deposition for the lawsuit, with snippets aired on TV. You will find a link to the kimkins deposition here amongst links to other articles by others on this controversy:

About.com have also written about this: http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/populardietplans/a/kimkinsdiet.htm
This blog and site are a fraud. The diet is a starvation diet. Plus the founder is under investigation for fraud. Do not fall for these lies.
Google Kimkins and read the real truth behind this.
