LET'S PLAY AN ONLINE GAME !!! PRIZE OFFERED !!!


With the New Year fast approaching, and waistbands cutting into our post-holiday expanded waistlines, there will be thousands of people who will be making a commitment to lose weight as one of their New Year's resolutions.

The fear of myself and my fellow anti-Kimkins bloggers is that those who decide to start a weight-loss program in the New Year will try the fastest method possible.

Because of the deadly Kimkins starvation diet's claim of having "less fat than Atkins, less carbs than South Beach and faster weight loss than Weight Watchers," those thousands may pay the $69.95 to join the Kimkins website.
What frightens me is that not only will those dieters be treading down that deadly path to starvation a la Kimkins, but they will also be providing the nefarious scam queen, Kimmer/Heidi Diaz, with their credit-card or bank information. Now that is a frightening thought.

So this is my challenge:

There is a list of blogs in my post URGENT MESSAGE!!! BEFORE YOU SIGN UP WITH KIMKINS...

The person who posts the most comments on those blogs listed, warning people of the dangers of the deadly Kimkins diet and Heidi Diaz/Kimmer, will win a copy of Gary Taube's bestseller, "Good Calories, Bad Calories." The contest will end at 12:00 noon (Atlantic Standard Time) on Wednesday, January 16th, 2008.

That will be my little gift to you for spreading the word on the diabolical Kimmer/Heidi Diaz and her deadly diet, Kimkins.

I will arrange to have the book shipped to the winner directly from Amazon.com, so you will have to provide me with your name and mailing address. Have no fear...I would never disclose your personal information, even during a long session of water torture.

Now, how will I know how many comments you've posted without manually checking them myself?

I've given this some thought and will ask that you post your comments using a specific name (i.e. not "Anonymous"). The name you choose can be fictitious, but the name you choose must be used consistently in every post you make.

Before 12:00 noon (AST) on January 16, 2008, I would ask that you leave a comment on this blog post indicating the total number of comments you left on the blogs/sites you visited and the name you used in posting. I will then tally up the results.

At that time, I will announce the winner of Gary Taube's book, "Good Calories, Bad Calories: Challenging the Conventional Wisdom on Diet, Weight Control, and Disease."

To assist you, here again is a list of those blogs. The links are clickable:

Ok, I have no clue where we are suppose to post our Online Game results but I'm doing here. I'm also posting early as I have no clue what time (AST) time is. I'm on the West Coast and by the time I get up tomorrow it will probably be 12 pm on the East Coast so I want to get mine in, lol.

I posted 522 times. Some of the blogs never updated so I guess those never got posted. About a dozen in Honeybee's list had no place to comment (that I could find) or you had to sign up. I did on a couple but not all.

I did get yelled at from a few of the blog site..lol...live and learn and my PC crashed or locked up a few times but nothing serious, lol, and thanks to Terry I learned how to do the bombs (kinda, lol..).

It was fun but most importantly, hopefully, it got the word out for the new year. There are blogs and stories all over the internet and that is good.

Thanks for the opportunity to play!!

OH, some sites my name was katinsac and on some (due to my blog in "google") it was kat...but the are all me :)

May the best bomber win!!

Kat! WOW! 522 comments! Very impressive!

Thanks so much for all your hard work.

For those who are wondering, 12:00 noon (AST) is 8:00 a.m. (PST)[i.e. a four-hour difference].

Looking forward to receiving everyone else's post counts!
