Alright. So I'm trying rather hard to lose weight and have accomplised so far the feat of going from 200 to 188 pounds.

Now here's the problem. I'm 15 and (no silly remarks or whatever!) I'm only 5'7" and even when I was told that I'd grow a couple inches taller if I lost weight, and I'm currently doing the latter very well, but there's no results from the height department. I'm afraid that I'll stay at 5'7" and I won't grow anymore sad.gif

So two questions:
1. Is it horrible to see a 5'7" person standing in a crowd of people who average at least 5'11" or something in height?
2. Is there any dietary plan that could help me grow taller?

Note: I have lots of calcium in my diet and exercise regularly, I'm not sure if that helps.

As I said try to contribute and make no silly remarks ok?!

You're just having a Napoleon Complex.~

Also, over what span of time did you lose those 12 pounds? Also losing weight doesn't make you... grow... to my knowledge.

P.S. I'm 6'3" :3

P.S.2. I grew to 6'3" when I used to weigh 260 pounds.

P.S.3. I'm now around 180 pounds, but that's irrelevant

Don't start crying about your height until you're around 18 years old, people. :V

I'm ~5'8", doesn't bother me. You're going to grow as tall as you grow, end of story.

I wish my fingers were slightly longer though. My hands are still just about kid-sized.

I've been 185 cm (oh god the metric system) since I was 15 or so, and now I'm 18. I'm not growing height anymore.

I'm 17 getting close to 18 soon and I'm only 5'6, 5'7..

But my face makes me look alot older so I'm not that upset, even though I do wish I was taller. I can't have my girlfreind being taller then me.

Also, eating right plays no role at all. you can be a fat obese eater and still be 6'5 tall, it'll just take longer.

you height is pre-determined, and there is nothing you can do to change it, besides surgery(leg plates) and over lifting weights to stunt your growth.
