    This isn't a hard problem to fix. You just need to lower your standards on friends. By lowering standards I mean find shorter friends to stand next to you.

    Easier said than done :tongue:

    So the real problem here is now you get less food, right?

    Isn't that always the problem?? :laugh:

    Actually, updating my height to 5'2 only drops my daily calories by 40, which is less than I expected. I'm set to sedentary/maintenance right now while I figure out how much I can eat to lose weight at this point (142, goal of 135) without crashing my TDEE and energy levels. I'm in the 1/2 pound loss per week range in reality, based on my Libra stats for the last 3 months.

    :lol: RIP half slice of bread.

    Surprised no one has come here yet to say that if you just do keto, it will add 3" to your height. :#

    This is a fair point. @pinuplove dem carbz are making you shrink! :astonished:

    They measured me at 5'2.

    So you are the perfect height.

    My yoga teacher says that yoga makes you taller.

    So does time in low earth orbit, but I am not doing either.

    For YEARS I said I was 5'2", after dating for a few years my boyfriends points out that there is no way I'm 5'2". I said I was and right up until he measured me I would have sworn it was true. Instead I'm a tiny bit over 5'1". I was mad I mean, I kind of knew I was a LITTLE less than 5'2" but had just kept the lie up so long that I had "forgotten" the fudge but a whole inch... it still hurts a little.

    Maybe I should start only accepting hugs from people 5'8 and shorter, since you tall ones all think you're soooo funny...

    Hey don't get short... oppps.... sorry.... I had a small slip of the tongue. Dang... did it again... and no, I will hug you just to pi$$ you off... lol..jk

    Crap. I was gonna say, "sending you a hug," but that doesn't seem to be a ready-sentiment on this forum. You asked for a hug!

    I'll take all the pity hugs I can get. I told the guy who measured me he ruined my day. He didn't even seem to care. Tall people are so heartless.

    Hey now, being a girl at 5'10"....it's just a whole different set of problems ;)

    I know your pain all too well. I am 5'2, although my Drivers Lic says I am 5'4. Positives: means that we can sit in lower cars, (tall Hubs hits his head in my Juke... I try not to laugh my tail off at him... but you know) and walk comfortably under things...and buy really cute semi-high heals . The shorter I feel, the taller my shoes get.
    Hugs!

    You guys are all very fun; thank you for the hugs and suggestions.

    So far, I'm gathering I need to move to a shorter continent, carry a box everywhere like Tom Cruise, wear wedges while doing yoga, and remove @CSARdiver from my friends list in order to feel better about my (lack of) height :lol::+1:

    I'm surprised you caught all of that. I'd expect much more to be going over your head.



    Ya gotta quit making me snort at work!
