(NAPSI)--Women often struggle to make the right diet and exercise choices, but there’s one more secret to success, according to new research: a positive attitude.

A new Special K study, “Positivity and Weight Management: A Look at the Gains,” examined the differences between women with a positive and negative approach to weight management. Research found that nine out of 10 women who think positively about weight management reported either losing weight or maintaining their weight in the past year, compared to only about half of women with a negative approach. Not only did women who think positively about their weight management report that they were more successful in losing or maintaining their weight, they were actually eight times less likely to report having gained weight than women who think negatively.
