    How about DH? I think it refers to husbands, and I assume it could go a couple of ways.

    What’s an RNY? Someone mentioned it in a post but it’s not in the list of acronyms.

    It's a medical term:

    "Roux-en-Y (RNY) gastric bypass surgery is the most common weight loss operation for morbid obesity in USA. Lap-band has gained popularity in the last few years and has become the second most common weight loss operation."

    Someone asked on another thread about "Onderland" (I think I've seen it as "Onederland" also): Reaching a weight under 200 pounds. I didn't see it in the initial post, and search didn't find it elsewhere in the thread.

    I have seen this one a lot. In context it does seem to mean husband... but I am not sure exactly what it means. Seems like saying wife/husband/spouse would be just as easy. B)

    Seeing TMI a lot recently and not in "too much information" context.
