I can address the links and stuff and why they too are important while the wheels of justice are turning and we all know how slow they have been and continue to be new dieters are out searching for information about weight loss and are finding info on kimkins when they google and up until recently when the about.com article about the negative effects of kimkins with the big push given it by those with those links started showing up all the returned info found was positive for kimkins thanks to the marketing blitz done for Kimkins.com by Kimmer and her affiliates. Not knowing about the dangers they were buying new memberships and were financing the kimpire and endangering their own health. Now thatnks to those changes in the google returns folk are finding Honeybees blog, the about.com article and other places on the first page of the search returns for kimkins, and Kimkins.com. So folk please do all you can to help stop the spread of the kimpire and don't just file one report and wait cause there have been reports filed in 2006 that still have not seen any actions taken by the federal government nor the State of CA. sure if you contact them they will say they are investigating but while they investigater more victims are being made.

Great stuff as usual. One thing we’d like to ask the bloggers and other activists to do is keep in mind that there’s some confusion on the part of some people about what to say when contacting these links.

A couple of comments left at Yucky’s reflect this confusion — some people seem to think they’re supposed to be clicking all over the internet and directing people to all the antikimkins blogs or something.

In our opinion, people are making this whole thing a lot more complicated than it needs to be and a lot more complicaed than it should be.

This is just our opinion, so feel free to disagree or disregard, but as far as we’re concerned, all that anybody needs to do is to submit to whatever links or authorities or individuals the following FIVE items:

1. a copy of the brilliant “Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Anorexics”
2. a copy of the 3fatchicks article “Anatomy of a Diet Scam”
3. a copy of the petition
4. contact info (John Tiedt)
5. a brief (one or two calm, factual paragraphs, neatly typed and correctly spelled) letter written by you personally telling a little bit about yourself and why you’re requesting an investigation into Heidi Diaz and Kimkins.com.

That’s all. There is absolutely NO need to send tons of links to blogs or boards or anything else. The items one through four cover the foundational documents, and the fifth item adds the necessary personal voice.

It’s fantastic work everyone is doing compiling lists of people and places to contact — but we feel that along with those lists it’s necessary to offer those who wish to participate in the effort, some clear and simple suggestions regarding what the heck they might want to concentrate on sending/posting to those links.

from Say NO to Kimkins:

Thank you, yustyucky!

That is very good advice. We are actually hosting a “30 in 30 Challenge” to Take Down Kimkins which will hopefully help with exactly that. Each day we will be focusing on one aspect of the list of links and how to best complete the form or send in information to get the best result. We will even have some creative videos to help with the process. We DO want to help everyone be able to have their say.

Remember, folks: Say NO to Kimkins!

Thank you so much for the great list! Every bit of help we can get in the battle against Kimkins is so very badly needed.
