Discrepancies in height?!
Question:
Discrepancies in height?
Since the 18th of August last year, my height measurements have been all over the place. The measuring was accurate for a while, but then it said '172cm exactly' instead of 173cm exactly. Last year, i went from being 171.7cms to 169.5cms, then it stopped, saying i was 171.9, 172.5 all the way to 173cms, but yesterday my doctor said 172cm instead of 173cm, AM I SHRINKING AGAIN?

Strange as it may seem, one does shrink during the day. When you first get out of bed you will be at your tallest, as the day goes on, you get SLIGHTLY shorter. Honestly! The discrepancies in your height therefore depend on the time of day and your posture at the time. Don't worry, you're not shrinking and growing.
