If you could physically transform yourself...
What would you do? Be taller? Shorter? Heavier? Slimmer?

Or any other way (ANY kind of physical transformation)

What would you choose?

I'd choose to be taller. I'm 5'8"...I'd like to be about 6'4".

This is a silly post, but I've already had a couple of cocktails...:-)

1. I would become a sexy woman.
And then I would never go outside.

Well, if you aspire to Rick Donovan size, then I suppose you might be greedy. :-)

32. Padraig18, all I can say is that your partner is very lucky...
To be with you. And NOT just because of your "enhanced gift"...

8. I'd transport myself to 1955...
Wouldn't even care if I had "advance knowledge" or anything... except maybe an appreciation for a life before Reagan and Bush and Bush...

9. There isn't a thing I would change about myself...
...for the simple reason, like this, I met the most wonderful woman in the world, who loves me truly, deeply, and unconditionally, so why would I want to change and risk losing that?

13. I'd want to be more beautiful, or would I?
That's a weird ongoing self image issue I have with myself and whether or not I am or should be attractive.
Of the categories that you named, I want to be a couple inches taller because I'm almost a foot shorter than my husband. I'm a good weight right now.

17. Wake up 50 lbs. lighter.
Oddly enough, I wouldn't get my hair back.
I've gotten used to being a slicktop.
It's cool, literally.

20. One word: FUR
Soft, chinchilla-like fur over my entire body, as long as I would no longer be legally obligated to wear clothes.

21. I would not change my height...
I actually like being short (5'2")

I would LOVE to be MUCH thinner. I would like to weigh around 120 or so.

I wouldn't change my hair but I'd love to have blue eyes because dark hair and blue eyes are awesome combination.

28. I would..
up my height to 7 foot. Then I would have my bones be like titanium or someting wiz like that. Next stop - muscles. I'd have my musculature replaced with something like a lizards muscles, they are like 3x dense as human muscle and way stronger. Then I would be basically a chiseled statuesque form witht his super dense musculature. Then I would add the bat wings. Follow up with a tail with some wicked barbs on the end of it, loaded with a psychtropic poison that would be "natural" so it would replenish the supply. Claws and fangs naturally. My head would be more like a wolfs head, without the fur and the flesh pulled tight across the bones. Horns of course. Maybe a poison gland for my bite, something cool, like a numbing bite. Sorta like a lizards, but way more powerful. Top it off with red-glowing eyes and you got the transformed me...

If you wanted a real-world answer... nothin really. Maybe lose some weight, just cause now I have something to live for.
