A 'whooshie' is when couple of pounds just seem to 'whoosh' off overnight. Like if you haven't lost for 5 days then you get up one morning to see it has dropped 3 pounds!

I think its a term used to describe a big weight loss that happens rather suddeny. But don't quote me on that. I'm just making inferences from other posts I've read.

I hope I get one soon though
