Throughout Oprah Winfrey's career, she's been public about battling the bulge and her struggles to maintain a healthy weight. On the heels of her new Weight Watchers campaign, Winfrey has announced that she's working on a cookbook.

Winfrey's Food, Health and Happiness: "On Point" Recipes for Great Meals and a Better Life will be released in January on her own publishing imprint with Macmillan U.S. and Flatiron Books.

"In the past several months on Weight Watchers, I have worked with wonderful chefs to make healthier versions of my favorite meals," Winfrey said in a statement. "When people come to my house for lunch or dinner, the No. 1 thing they ask is, 'How is this so delicious and still healthy?' So I decided to answer that question with recipes everyone can enjoy."

Previously, Winfrey was working on her memoir, The Life You Want, but that's now being pushed back until the cookbook is released.
