AmyB: Food For Thought

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of AmyB WOE

suspicions March 1, 2008

suspicions…The act of suspecting something, especially something wrong, on little evidence or without proof.

Amy B is a registered member at the Magic Chicken Diet. So the answer to the question is….yes and that is me.

I had some suspicions about a new group called “Magic Chicken Diet”. I am not sure what lead to me to question this but It nagged at me. In a few PM’s Kimmer had said she had a back up group ready if Kimkins went down. I never doubted this knowing Kimmer.

>I appreciate you being blunt. 🙂 No problem at all, I just don’t want anti-KK postings. It’s not nice when people criticize KK at other places and then come back to KK forums like nothing happened. I have made sure to have a back up site ready. The money has never been important , I do this for all of you.

This is just one PM that Kimmer mentions the idea of a back up place. I even went to being as blunt to ask her if Camp was her site. This PM was a answer to my message to her saying Blunt. I told her I was going to go over to camp and wanted to let her know I was still at kimkins. I also asked her if she had camp set up as a fall back. She ignores what she does not want to answer. I think she wanted me to think maybe TT and she were together. Thinking back , I think she did that often.

After reading on LCF about the Chicken diet I started to think back to the Heidi comments about a back up group. I also looked at a link that LCF had posted where Bonnie’s DH had asked for help setting up the Group. In that he mentioned the site to look like Kimkins. That is odd. I know kimkins is on our minds often but seemed odd with so many web sites out there, he wanted the site to be like her site.

I decided that I wanted to go and take a look around . I had no interest in the chicken diet because I was a kimkins girl. So I contacted Bonnie through a link she had on the web site. I asked her if I could learn more about her diet and maybe if she would tell me more about how her website worked. This e-mail I can not find. At the time I did not really feel there was a need to keep things back then. But basically the e-mail I sent was saying I admired her weight loss . I mentioned I had lost a good amount of weight and was looking for a way to lose the rest of it. I asked her to allow me to look around before I paid to join. I told her money was a issue with some medical bills we had. And I just wanted to make sure the plan was for me before I paid. Bonnie was very sweet and so nice in her e-mail back. She told me to give her a call. Calling Bonnie seemed to be the normal for her with some people. I never called her. It was days before Christmas. With 4 kids and a toddler with a Christmas tree …well I bet you moms know I was busy. I went on with the holidays and going way off plan. ( I just added that because going from 137 to 157 during holidays is worth mentioning for me). One day I decided to contact her again. I can not remember why I did but there may of been something on LCF talking about her. I just decided to contact her. I sent her a e-mail . And once again she was very kind in it.

I had spoken to you before the holidays about wanting to see if you had a lay away or alternative plan for memberships. I have lost 89 pounds and trying to find a way to get to my goal.

I logged in and looked around for maybe 2 minutes and thought …this looks nice and seems to be taking off. And I kind of forgot about it. Until LCF posted that there was some weird thing going on with the Magic Chicken Diet. There seem to be two groups. One was dot com and one was dot net. So I thought it was time to go take a look. I logged in to dot com and was shocked. Where was the group? Every post was scrubbed. There was a zero post for each section. Not like the group back in January that seem to be taking off. This info was taken today.

Most active topic: Then I went to dot net and was confused. I could not figure out what or why or who was doing that group. I think if the dot com group was still active with people I would of assumed the dot net was just someone being mean. I asked for a login info for dot net.

Hi everybody! Well, today’s Tuesday! And I wanted to just say hi to you all again! Looking forward to meeting you all! Besides LeighAnn and Bonnie of course as we’ve already “met”! DLet’s all cheer each other on and make this a MAGICAL week on the MAGIC Chicken Diet! D

Your friend in weightloss,
Sue
I sent a PM to Suzy asking her if she could tell me where the group went. Never heard from Suzy again. I looked in my PM sent box and it is empty. That is the only PM I sent ever. So not sure why that folder is empty. Not that it matters.
I sent a e-mail to Bonnie and tried to act really confused. That was easy cause I was. Below are the e-mails in full. The one thing I noticed was she was not very nice. Her words sounded nothing like the sweet Bonnie from before. She also seemed to be in attack mode with me. I have no idea why. And the same women who wanted me to post pictures now was mad at me for even suggesting it. Oh I guess I need to explain where the pic came into this. I wrote her the e-mail saying I was ready to add pictures and was confused by the site. So pictures was the topic. Her e-mails reminded me of the Heidi e-mails. She acted like she did not want my pics up. But she was the one in the start that wanted me to post them. Another odd fact. And yes she could just of figured it out but it is a Little odd. I never once mentioned Kimkins at all. So she knew I was on Kimkins.

Amy,
You have me confused too. I don’t want a picture of you posted before your start date of this diet from another plan. Only when you start this plan not someone elses that would not be honest. You need to give your credit to the Kimkins.com plan. And then a picture of when you are finished. How much weight do you still need to lose? I hope you are going to the right site http://www.magicchickendiet.com.
Have a Great Day!
Bonnie

I was going to add pics of where I started before dieting and where I am now. I do not have that much more to lose to be at 100 pounds total with your plan finishing it off. I will just back off from sending anything for now. The site I visited has no post on it at all. I am just confused.

Amy,
I don’t understand what you are talking about because I went to the site and it is running fine. As far as your pics you are really fast. How much did you lose. The pics are for when our members have completed losing their desired weight and the testimonial is when you have started and been on it a few weeks or a while and you are excited about how you have done so far and you want to share it with other members. Make sure you send it to the correct one. But again the site is up and I never knew it to be down. Best of success to your continued weight loss.
Have a Great Day!
Bonnie Luper

Bonnie,
I had my pictures ready to post….but it seems the site is down or been scrubbed. Am I missing something? Then I found another site that I know can not be yours…or is it? I really am not understanding what is going on. But I am ready to jump right in…
http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/philipbriggs
Bonnie insist on telling me everything is fine with the group but there is no one there. Once I PM suzy asking her about this…I never heard from her again.
Also I noticed that Bonnie and I joined the same day. But I know she had her site up and running before holidays. Where did she and everyone else go?

This is all I have on the Magic Chicken Diet. The funny thing is ..I do not even know what is on her plan…I guess Chicken..huh?
Hope this answered some questions for those who wondered. Seems to be I got no real information..just more pieces to the puzzle. But I think the puzzle is going to come together soon.
Once againn..my main interest right now is reaching out to KK people. Active, Banned, Lurker KK. I am here and a e-mail away. Amyb1569@cfl.rr.com
My mom wrote me a powerful e-mail about her views of me and being on KK. She did not know I was banned and when she asked I said..Mom I am over talking about it. So my steadfast friend Slick wrote and told her the story. My mom was shocked. So being a mom she had things to say. I think I will post that Sometimes a view from the outside without the hurt feelings is good.

    Amyb – My prayers are with you. Thank you for sharing your insight about KK’s and the MCD.

  2. mariasol Says:

    The MCD has been weird since first found, and your emails with Bonnie don’t make it any less so. So are you now banned from there, or can you still log in? Do you know who the other members are? Are they posting? It really seems strange to charge $69.95 for a forum with hardly any members.
    For the diet, it’s just another kimkins version. Very low calorie if following the suggested menu.

  3. mayberryfan Says:

    Wow. This saga gets weirder everyday! It’s the best freakin’ soap opera ever. Thanks Amy for sharing this information. You are right in that the pieces of the puzzle will come together soon. No way is Bonnie on the up and up. The whole split personality thing sounds a LOT like Heidi. There has to be a connection. Hugs to you for coming forward!

  4. bluesuederebel Says:

    Amyb – I like the new colors. It’s so much easier to read.

  5. prudentiablog Says:

    Like the new look, Amy! And thanks for sharing you experiences with MCD – such as they are, eh? It’s one of those things … you KNOW there is something there, but you can’t pin it down for sure.

    Ah, but as with all things, time will tell.

    thanks for changing the colors ofr those of us old folk :0.

    Hi Amy!
    I’m sorry you felt so bad today…you should never have to feel bad!
    As always…prayers for Philip!

  8. yustyucky Says:

    Hi Amy. Thanks for explaining this situation.

    Please hang in there & know that things are going to work out for the best somehow.

    All this Kimkins and Magic Chicken stuff, it’s a mess but I try to believe that the Law will win, sooner or later, because Law is on the side of Good. It doesn’t seem that way sometimes, but I try to believe.

    Thank you for helping us understand some of this mess.

  9. barbarab2 Says:

    Hi Amy,

    Like the new look of your blog. Most of us have been scratching our heads with the MCD and there is definitely something weird there. Thanks for giving us some more puzzle pieces to try and fit somewhere. Oh, and the dot com and dot net thing almost seems like a dual personality — sort of like Heidi. I have no doubt that Bonnie lost her weight. But Bonnie is also a business woman and I’m just wondering whether the site really IS a stand-in for when the Kimpound gets taken down.

    Hi Amy,
    No worries about those who want to knock you down.

    But look how interesting that this IP address is leaving negative comments about me, Mimi and Medusa over at Yucky’s.
    They want us to stop “lynching” the innocent…like Bonnie from MCD.
    One comment from them-
    “Yust Yucky and the Ducks once again prove they are off their collective rockers.

    And no, you didn’t take time away from your lives to expose a fraud. It seems quite clear that most of you didnt have lives to begin with.”

    “My opinion: Seems like Ducky, Jeanessa, TheTruth are in this for justice and Honeybee, Mimi, Medussa, and co are in it for the drama.”

    “Eagerly awaiting to find out who the next victim of the Yucky/medussa/honeybee lynch mob will be.”

    It seems that they have a bee in their bonnet…bless their heart~
