The picture of the beautiful, petite, size 4 woman staring out at you from her dietwebsite and newsletters turns out to be a "borrowed" picture of Lesya,from a RussianMail Order Bride website. Pictures taken by a private investigator and thosereleased from a recent deposition revealed that Ms. Diaz is no where near petite,weighing in at over 300 lbs. She only wears a size 4 in her dreams it seems.
As it turns out, Ms. Diaz's success story, and a multitude of the other successstories, posted on her website were fabrications and all used pictures "borrowed"from various Russian Bride Websites.
Kimmer, as she goes by on her website, even told Woman's World Magazine that hername was actually Kim Drake, and sent them an entirely different picture (of adifferent Russian Model) to use in their article on the Kimkins Diet which gracedthe cover of their magazine last June. Since then, the two young women featured inthe Magazine as Kimkins Success Stories have experienced major health issues fromfollowing the diet, and have realized they had been deceived by Ms. Diaz, and havesince left her employ. Ms. Diaz, for obvious reasons revealed much later, refused tobe photographed for the story in Woman's World Magazine.
Not only is the Kimkins Diet and website embroiled in litigation over the fraudissues, with a Kimkins Class Action Lawsuit; there are also issues involving thedangerous diet itself. Doctors and Nutritionists both have cautioned folks aboutfollowing the starvation based diet. Many of those attempting to recover from thedamage done to their metabolisms by the Kimkins Diet, also are discovering that theyhave developed eating disorders from this experience. Basically, Ms. Diaz isteaching people how to become anorexic on this diet.
Kimmer encourages people to cut their calorie intake to starvation levels whilepreaching that if you have any fat on your body at all, that you don't really needto eat because your body fat will sustain you. If her members aren't losing sheberates them for cheating (even if they are not) and urges them to cut their calorieintake lower and lower. Ms. Diaz also believes heavily in water fasting to loseweight, although she chooses to do her fasting with Diet Coke.
