I miss being able to do over-the-shoulder rolls during parkour on hard ground (I bruise up my shoulders and shoulderblades even on grass and dirt now). I miss being able to shop in the men's section for clothing and being able to take for granted that I'd find something that fit. I miss the unquestioning way people would…

I've got five, and five more already planned out (and waiting for the right artist to come along). They're a personal thing, but a good investment. You'll have them the rest of your life, no matter what you go through, where you end up, or how much you gain/lose.

Fat. It doesn't concern me, since it's almost entirely from nuts (peanuts, almonds, coconuts).
