• Delete Entirely non-notable, what has she done since 2012? Oaktree b (talk) 23:35, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

• Delete for lack of citation. The one and only footnote, to the publisher of a book she asserts she wrote, is to a dead link. Keep as work has been done to cite and verify this article, which is of course always the best outcome -Markeer 23:45, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
• Comment and question I did some WP:BEFORE type work and discovered that if she's notable for anything it would be her writing or her invention of a new concept. Thinking about WP:CREATIVE could it be said she has "created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work"? There's a lot of commentary about her work, mostly in tabloid sources (Daily Mail etc) but some in borderline sources? CT55555 (talk) 01:53, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

• Keep - More citations have been added. The subject wrote a New York Times bestselling book, prompting a diet named after her book. The subject has been featured in both national and international magazines, including Woman's World, Daily Mail, Consumer Reports (requires subscription), Today's Dietician magazine, Evening Standard, Woman.ru, Now To Love (a New Zealand magazine), and News24 (an online news source in South Africa), plus authoring four books. Here is The New York Times bestseller list. These are evidence of notability, which satisfies notability guidelines. Meets WP:GNG and passes WP:BASIC. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 08:55, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
• Keep, based on significant improvements by AuthorAuthor. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:02, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
