Everyone may be striving for a figure to rival Cheryl Cole, but research has revealed size 14 women are most happiest with their looks.

Over 43% of size 14 women said they were more than content with their career, and nearly a third said their love-life was fantastic.

The research conducted by Special K, concluded that size 12 women were second most-happiest according to their survey.

These results are great news for women everywhere who are constantly under pressure to lose weight, and idolise the figures of Victoria Beckham and Nicole Richie.

However, more than two thirds of women who took the survey said that they couldn't fit into their ideal clothes size, with the average women striving to be a size 10.

With 48% of women revealing they weren't happy with their weight, it appears that there is a long way to go before many women feel good in their size.
