With every New Year comes a New Year’s resolution – except all too often it’s not new. Many of us vow to make changes but how many of us fall off the wagon before the tinsel is off the tree?

According to new research by Kellogg’s Special K seven in ten women diet every single year. For many the issue lies with finding a manageable solution which gets results without breaking the bank or making you miserable.

People’s reasons for weight gain are varied with the top five: getting older, retiring, stopping smoking, having children and going to university

But with women in particular (74 per cent) the desire to lose the weight is considerable. The difficulty is however finding the proven routes available to lose those unwanted pounds.

The Kellogg’s Special K Slimmer Jeans Challenge is now in it’s 6th year and last year 3.3 million women took part in the challenge. According to global research up to three in four people got slimmer after the two week kick start. Scientists concluded that the majority of this was due to fat loss. 

This January a new site has been launched to offer additional support with free tailored plans and advice on kick-starting your healthy eating and exercise plans for this year.

To celebrate this we have two six-month’s supply of Special K worth £120 for you to enjoy. The site also has advice of the best jeans to compliment your shape.

For a chance to win just answer the question:

How many women took part in the challenge last year?

The first two correct emails opened at random after 6pm Thursday 12 February will win six month's supply of Special K.
