Read one of Derek's posts in the Kimkins member forums. He's a true example of determination to make positive healthy changes in his life:

My name is Derek. I have been a [Kimkins] member here for a while now, but this is my first post. Due to recent attacks against this diet plan, I decided I should at least share my story.

I began this plan early this year and lost the majority of the weight the first 4-5 months. I have since been at a steady 195 lbs now for 6 months. I actually began this diet without weighing myself. Once I started noticing a big difference in my face and clothes, I purchased a new digital scale and it read exactly 300 lbs. So unfortunately, I do not have a starting weight. My best guess would be that I weighed in the neighborhood of 320 or so, and have lost a total of about 125 lbs. I began the plan wearing a size 50 mens pants, and now I fit comfortably in a 36. (I'm 6'2")

Like I said, I hit my goal weight of 195 back in April/May and have been able to maintain it ever since. I eat 2-3 times a day, or whenever I am hungry. I still try to keep my carbs low, and occasionally eat something I shouldn't. If I notice a couple pounds on the scale, I go right back on plan and it melts off in no time.

I have not had any side effects whatsoever. I have *never* starved myself and always eat a multivitamin every day. I haven't weighed this little since I was in middle school.

Update 9/17/08:

Thought I would just post a quick update. My weight has not budged since losing more than 100 pounds last year. I am a gym rat now and really enjoy working out. If I don't go at least 4 times a week I feel lousy. My life has changed so much for the better, it's unreal. Here is a recent pic. Sorry for the quality, it's a quick cam.
