    Mine is a play on my original username which had too much personal info in it, but my friends started calling me sossy instead of the whole long name so when I changed it the Still is for I am still me.....Sossy.

    Well, I am not too good at sports, but I am really good at math ;) and 99 is my favorite number as well as Carl Edward's car number in NASCAR. Pretty sure that's why it's my favorite number!

    I wanted "movement" since it is what I focus on doing the most throughout the day. Movement was taken, so I tried to take a more powerful stance. :)

    swingin: easy, I dance west coast swing. Used to do it obsessively and competitively, now do it only rarely and socially... but once I lose all the weight, I probably will compete again.

    chandra: kinda a long story - but it has personal significance to me, and has turned into my online moniker for almost everything.

    It's pretty funny, I think half the time when I join a new forum, someone asks me if I'm into group sex... NO! And if I was, I wouldn't be shouting it on the internet... lol.

    When I signed up for online dating I was trying to think of an honest username, so since I'm fat, aka squishy, I went with SquishyJenn lol. Now I kinda use it for everything. Since we get 1 chance to change our usernames on MFP I plan to change it to SkinnyJenn when I lose my weight. But, I really like SquishyJenn!

    I love rabbits and have since I was a kid, so nearly every user name I use has either rabbit or bunny in it. When I first started using Yahoo IM, friends sugested I should use something I love to do as part of my username. I was going for bakerbunny, but fast fingers turned it into bakebunny... and it's stuck. :laugh:

    Hi all,

    I am new here as of about 5 minutes ago. I have a LOT of weight to lose, and am hoping to give and get friendly support here.
    Re: my username, well I guess it speaks for itself, LOL. I just thought of it one day, while trying to come up with a user name.
    Unfortunately, it suits me very well, a little too well LOL.

    Many moons ago my husband worked for AOL. He created Kajehart out of his first, middle, and last name as his user name since he was told to keep it professional. So I created one for me the same way. Years later it has stuck and we have created our "personal brand" with it online for business. We are AshDHart and Kajehart everywhere. We even bought the .com domains.
