Default what is whoosh?

I've seen people refer to this all the time, what does whoosh stand for?

Thanks!

That's when you wake up one morning and the scale shows you down more than 2 pounds overnight.

WHOOOSH! We also say the Whoosh Fairy visited!

And the number of O's in whoosh is the number of pounds you lost overnight. For instance, I lost 3 last night, so I had a Whooosh.
