What does it mean to be a BBW, SSBBW or USSBBW?

The abbreviation BBW was coined by Carole Shaw in 1979 for her magazine named Big Beautiful Woman. Later, the terms Super-sized BBW and Ultra Super-sizes BBW were introduced. Most commonly, BBW is a woman between slightly overweight to 350lbs and SSBBW is between 350lbs and 600lbs. USSBBW is every woman who is heavier than 600lbs. However, opinions about these definitions vary.
