Could I grow any more?!


Question:

Could I grow any more?

I'm 15 and 5'4 1/2. I feel miserable because I used to be tall, but now I'm not and it really affects my confidence. Is there anything I can do to grow more? How much excercise do you have to do per day to make a difference? I don't eat much, would eating more help? Are there any herbal things which could help?
Please help if you can! Thank you!


Answers:

Sorry to burst your bubble, but there's really nothing you can do. Height is based on genetics, and exercise and eating right (though good things) do not help growth in height.

However, being 5' 4" is not super short. Take it from me, I'm 4'10" and just about done growing.

I will admit, I used to haaaaaaaaaate height jokes! Just hate them! I tried just about everything to grow! But nothing worked...but you know what? Today I wouldn't grow taller if I could.

I like being short! It's a part of who I am. Learn to accept yourself and then others will be able to accept you!


Best wishes,
Terri
