happinessTurns out happiness is not remotely related to how far a woman's pelvic bones stick out. In fact, a little chub may make you happier, reports Emerald at Lemondrop.

A recent survey of 3,000 British women by Special K -- the cereal that's supposed to make us so thin 'n happy -- revealed size 14s (about a U.S. 10) rated their general happiness the highest. One-third of the size 14s also reported their loves lives as the best possible. Go gals! Next happiest were British size 12s, followed by size 8s. Least happiest were size 24s (slightly above a U.S. 2X), then size 20s, then size 22s.

I am not into this size zero phenomenon -- it seems genetically impossible to reach for most women and never involves pizza. Here's to plenty of fitness, hydration, stellar safe sex and a couple slices now and then.
