Faticulous: /fat IC u lus/ I work out, I try to eat properly and then even after painstaking detailed gym attendance this damn faticulous weight appears. Etymology: FAT: + RIDICULOUS: not serious, unreasonable METICULOUS: careful attention to detail Created by: kateinkorea.
Reincarbnation: /rÄ“-inkärbnÄshÉ™n/ It wasn’t his fault. It was a matter of reincarbnation. The more Phat thought about it the more he believed in regirth.

After another fruitless trip to the gym, he went out and bought another pair of elepants. Etymology: reincarnation (a person or animal in whom a particular soul is believed to have been reborn) + carb (short for carbohydrate) Created by: artr.

Killergrams: /kil ler gramz/ Melanie had tried everything to lose a few pounds, like Weight Watchers, Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig, Atkins, LA Weight Loss, Herbal Magic, Scarsdale, The Zone, heck even Oprah Winfrey’s latest method. She visited their sites everyday, but lost not an ounce. She had also tried every possible fitness regime, too. But no matter what she tried, she still had those extra killergrams on her that she could not shed. She actually got a lot of exercise in her daily routine: she surfed the Net, jumped to conclusions, ran out of money, juggled her tasks, pushed her luck, drove her family mad and plowed through her paperwork, but still a thin body eluded her. How would she ever look as good as those women on the magazine covers in the grocery store? You know, the ones who stared back at you accusingly as you bought ice cream, pop, chips, candy and booze! Etymology: Kilograms (metric weight unit of 1000 grams) & Killer (a difficulty that is hard to deal with;the causal agent resulting in death Example: “Heart disease is the biggest killer in America”) Created by: Nosila.
