I'd not change much, just my suicide weight, a couple of functional issues, and a few troublesome moles.

how many of us would be furries? Statistically speaking, i want an answer.
i love fucking with people, so it's an obvious choice.
i mean yeah, i'll take just having the same body but made of nanites please. There are just no downsides to that: i'd be immortal, impossible to damage since the nanites would just flow back into place, i could reconfigure my body at will, and extremely cool shit like extruding tools from my body (either made of nanites or effectively 3d printing them).
nanomachines son
I love my body, I am very content with every detail of it, but I would make my tongue smaller in my throat.
It's a tiny detail but it is ruining my life by slowly choking me to death at night. Some nights are good, others suck, and it's a crap shoot.
The vast array of problems this causes are difficult to properly describe, and the damage it's done to my life overall is incalculable.
If that one thing stopped being a problem and I could plan knowing it wouldn't come back, my life would change virtually overnight.
Seriously, ask your doctor for a sleep study or a referral to a sleep medicine specialist.

Other than the assumptions OP mentions in the prompt, I would actually add a prehensile tail... I think that would be a super fun and useful appendage to have hehehe
I would make small changes untill I sm happy with it.
I would make a small change one month, adapt and learn to live with it, make another change next month, and so on.
I would start my reducing my weight by 2kgs a month and make my psoriasis recide slowly.
I would also make a few old scars start to fade.
If I could change, I would jump at the opportunity.
Taller and have a deep voice that can command a room.
Depends, if it's only biological changes, I'd get myself two hearts, and minimize the chances of any disease or aging knocking me out, then become an anthro folf because being hooman is overrated
If cybernetics are allowed, I'd probably get rid of the damn body and just have a virtual one, with my brain connected to some machine deep underground
I ain't judging the furry thing but man, I just cannot imagine wanting to trade the best graspers on land (human hands) with paws
I think hands with pawpads and some proper claws are a good compromise :3
I'd be an anthro, so all the benefits of being hooman without being hooman (except sweating, so you'd be able to outrun me eventually)

Mostly curious, but if you added simple opposable thumbs to say a cat or a dog paw, would that be bad or good?
Maybe that's a simple way to put it but like what would the consequences be it's what I'm asking.
