    Very cool I need to read her article.

    The best part is that her Twitter handle is @bigfatsurprise :D

    Kudos to the BMJ for standing by her and refusing to retract!

    Her book, The Big Fat Surprise , was the 1st book I read when I considered switching to keto. It was pretty enlightening and definitely helped me overcome my fear of fat.

    Thank you! I noticed our library has her audio book so I am downloading it to my phone right now. Will be listening to it on my drives to work next week :)

    I know this is a really old thread, but I just got through listening to the Big Fat Surprise on Audio Book. Even though I've been low carb for several years and have read and listened to so much stuff on the subject including some of her presentations this book blew me away.

    The way all of the dietary guidelines have come about was mind blowing......I would recommend to anyone interested in learning more about the subject.

    Definitely makes me want to start/keep eating as many whole foods as possible and leave processed foods (even low carb ones) out of my diet completely.

    Thank you for bumping this thread. Big Fat Surprise may be my next book to read. I do a Keto/Whole 30 type of eating, eating as many whole foods as possible.

    The Magic Pill is an interesting viewing experience too.
