Janet Love has been sent a statement by the publisher’s of Janet’s upcoming book which is currently untitled. It will be co-written by David Ritz and include exercise routines as well as tips on healthy eating from Jackson’s nutritionist, David Allen.

The book is “far more than a celebrity manifesto on becoming fit. Janet offers a searingly honest account of turning to food for comfort during some of the most tumultuous times of her life–from being taunted as a young girl, to her internal battles with her beauty and femininity and her desire to ‘fit in.’”

The book is scheduled to hit shelves worldwide in November 2008.
