Membership Explosion! and Inspiration
Well it's been 2 full weeks since the magazine debut. And what a time it has been. I never in my wildest dreams expected such an incredible response. I guess in my head I knew that millions of people would be reading about the program and seeing my face every time the went to the grocery store, but it never really sunk in until I saw the membership at Kimkins EXPLODE!! Holy Cow! Our cozy little community jumped from around 3000 in membership to over 24000!!! That's over 21K new members in the last 2 weeks!
I have received countless emails and notes informing me that they have joined because they found my story in the magazine inspirational. Each one special and touching in their own way. Every day I sit in amazement reading my messages and emails in awe. Can it really be true that the Lord has used me to touch so many? And how many more will still find inspiration in my story? Well, I'm here to say, if anything, these people have inspired me.
Part of what makes maintenance so hard I think is not seeing the scale going down every day. When we get into the losing mode, sometimes it's hard to watch the scale remain still and realize that it is perfectly normal for it to stay that way. Even fluxuate up and down 5 pounds or so. It can be an emotional roller-coaster. I find it very difficult sometimes not to want to see the scale shooting back down.. but I know in my heart that I am where I need to be so it doesn't need to go any further.
This is why I LOVE the Kimkins community. I posted on Friday that I was feeling down because my weight had fluxuated up due to being out of town at my sister's wedding. I am so touched that the supportive response that I got back from all my Kimkins friends.
In February of next year we will be cruising to Cozumel, Mexico! Please stop by and read all about it. I am so flattered that she has asked me to come along to help and even speak a little to our friends that attend with us. I'd love to meet you too so please come by, check it out, and sign up! It promises to be such a good time and I know personally for me, I cannot WAIT to meet some of these fantastic people that I have grown to know and love through this program.
Editor's Note: Please note that the Kimkins Diet has been proven to be a dangerous Very Low Calorie Diet. Please see my article HERE for further information regarding new developments about this program and my decision to step away.

Hi!
I am very glad that I joined, although it took me a long time to finally start actually doing the program. I am feeling so much better now that I am!!!
I joined right before the explosion. It made it a little difficult. I wish I had joined earlier when it was smaller. I felt sort of lost for awhile, but more of my other online friends are joining so I don't feel quite so alone.
I do think that it is wonderful that you, Kimmer, and some of the others spend so much time answering questions and helping others who are new. I realize that it must be quite overwhelming sometimes.
