Why is Kimkins different than other diets?
Kimkins is a low carb low glycemic weight loss program. Lower fat than Atkins and lower carb than South Beach. We don't subtract fiber or sugar alcohols. No bells and whistles, the Kimkins focus is fast weight loss.
Do I have to exercise?
Absolutely not! Cardio has many benefits including conditoning and toning, it
does relatively little for weight loss. If a 200 lb woman walked 2
miles she would burn 175 calories. It would take 3 weeks to
lose 1 lb by walking. Some
people actually avoid starting a diet because they dread exercise. With Kimkins it's a no brainer! Kimkins works
fine without exercise. Like working out? Great! You'll find workout buddies in the Work Out Zone forum for walking, Shapely Secrets, T-Tapp and other fitness routines.
What kind of food will I eat?
The nutritional focus for Kimkins is low fat
protein and low carb veggies which creates a thermogenic dynamo! You'll get all of these Kimkins options in your membership:
Original Kimkins

Is Kimkins good for diabetics?
Kimkins is ideal for managing diabetes. As a low glycemic weight loss plan, Kimkins allows many diabetic members to reduce
their medication dose due to careful blood sugar
control. In fact, many type 2 members are able to stop their meds
completely. Do not stop or alter medications without consulting your
doctor.Test - don't guess.
Is Kimkins good for lapband or gastric bypass patients?
You bet! Many lapband and gastric bypass patients find they still need support
and structure to accomplish their weight loss goals after surgery. They've found a
home at Kimkins with a warm community who offer support and
understanding. In fact, the Kimkins plan is identical to most low glycemic diets
recommended after lapband and bariatric surgery.
Do you have a sample menu?
Sure! Here are 3 typical days for the original Kimkins option. Personalize these ideas according to your own preferences.
Hate coffee? Drink something else. Never eat fish? Substitute
another protein from the Kimkins list.

How fast will I lose?
How quickly depends on age, sex, current weight and activity level, but many Kimkins members drop 5% or more of their total body weight in the first 10 days. Please look over our testimonials for first hand reports of fantastic weight loss!
Is it true that once you stop low carb you gain all the weight back?
No. Although it is true for any diet that if you go back to what you used to eat, you'll go back to what you used to weigh.
A common misconception is that once we lose
weight, then the fat magically stays away. Untrue! We become overweight due to overeating. If we return to
high carb high calorie foods, we'll regain the weight we worked so
hard to lose! That's the same for any diet.
What does my Kimkins membership include?
You'll receive the original Kimkins diet plus options, food lists, shopping list, community support forums, weight loss challenge groups, low carb recipes, sample menus, newsletters and direct access to Kimmer, the creator of Kimkins.
What is Kimkins Boot Camp? Is it included in my membership?
Of course! Kimkins Boot Camp is an intense variation of Kimkins and requires 30+ minutes of daily exercise.
Will I need to buy special foods or supplements?
No! We encourage a good
daily multivitamin with minerals plus any supplements suggested by your health care provider -- but that's it. Women may prefer to
add daily calcium. Pure and simple. No
extra pills, powders or gadgets to buy!
When will I eat fruit, bread, rice, potatoes and other high carb foods again?
When you're close to goal weight, then you'll
begin adding back fruit, whole grains and other
healthy carbs. As you practice adding back carb portions, you'll
find your Carb & Calorie Equilibrium for lifetime weight maintenance
success.
