Do you think that Adam and Eve were less than human or not fully human until they sinned?

Do you think that Adam and Eve were less than human or not fully human until they sinned? They were fully human both before and after they sinned. However, human nature itself was changed by sin. What it meant to be human was redefined by the Fall.
Christ, the second Adam, had a human nature identical to Adam's original nature, unstained and unsullied by sin.
