Preat<\/strong>: \/preet<\/em>\/ When Dorothy knew the gang was going out for lunch at work, she would always preat at her desk. Whether a donut or a sandwich, this allowed her the chance to just nibble at a house salad and water. Her boss thought she ate like a bird and loved the fact that she cost him very little at these bashes. He just could never figure out why she was not skinnier… Etymology:<\/em> pre (before;in advance of) & Eat (eat a meal; take a meal) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n

Prelimingest<\/strong>: \/prilim\u00c9\u2122njest<\/em>\/ Gloria always keeps a stock of snack foods her desk drawer to ensure she won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be caught hungry for a business lunch. Her plan is to prilim\u00c9\u2122njest so that she can appear delicate and demure. Strangely, she doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t go to business lunches very often but has to replenish her stash weekly. Etymology:<\/em> preliminary (denoting an action or event preceding or done in preparation for something fuller or more important) + ingest (take food, drink, or another substance into the body by swallowing it) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n
