is it bad? I used to be big too, but I'm tall so you really couldn't tell as much, but now that I'm on the lighter side, i feel the difference and more energetic! Like i said the key words are "used to be" so it looks like we've taken the turn for better health!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

i could totally see you using that word. saying stoked kinda matches the way your voice sounds. "dude, i sold like 2456 phones, i'm stoked."
