HELP! According to my BMI, I am too short!
How do I increase my height so my BMI will be in the normal range? Looking for unique methods.
I would need add another 12 inches to my height.

Thanks in advance for your input!

    Like the T short. "I'm not overweight. I'm Undertall"

    Always stand in front of a funhouse mirror. But make sure it's the one that stretches your image tall and skinny, not the one that does the opposite.

    I think Prince, or the artist who used to be known as prince then was known as a symbol and now is known as god knows what, might have some shoes that might help.

    One of the best quotes I heard once from Nicole Kidman, someone asked her about the first thing she did after she divorced Tom Cruise: "Wear high heels".

    When I was stationed in Europe (many moons ago), we visited many a caslte. They bolt those things to the floor now to keep us pesty Americans from 'acquiring' them! Hmmm guess I could starting building and marketing them as a "Health" product. Just visualize what the commercials would be like!

    God I love that hair. But it makes me wonder if Chris "Birdman" Anderson of the Miami Heat really isn't only about 5'3" and the rest is all hair.

    Ok, this did not go well. Wife just saw me in my Speedos stretched up against the wall. She screamed cause she thought that the wall and me where getting WAY to intimate.
    Dogs came a running cause of the wife's scream. When they saw me in the Speedos one crapped on the rug and the other went running for shelter yipping.
    Wife slipped on the mess on the floor, knocking me into the wet bar. A bottle of Crown fell off the shelf of the wet bar and I think busted up one of my toes.

    Sigh
    We are still looking for the second dog. I do believe she is very afeared of me now…
    Hence the start of the weekend (Friday eve)

    Thanks, just thanks........

    (the above is fiction, but could be real if I ever put on some Speedos)

    My 5' 1" daughter actually wears shoes like this on a daily basis. I keep expecting to receive word that she has fallen off her shoes
    and broken her neck.
