I definitely did. I don't have the tallest parents, (5'4 mom and my dad was around my height, I'm 5'9) but I have some tall people in my family. I grew up eating slop every single day. I would eat food that is full of sugar or seed oils in the morning and at night. I ate snacks very often. I did eat some relatively healthy dinners, and a lot of vegetables and fruit, but I've always drank soda or juice to my meals. I blame my mother for raising me on this shitty diet, she should have never introduced me to slop. It's delicious and I crave it, but she shouldn't have introduced me to this crap in the first place.

I didn't play sports because I'm clumsy, but idk if this has any effect on height. I didn't go outside often, and vitamin D, which you get from the sunlight, promotes bone growth. When I was 12, I started staying up late whenever I had a break from school, and even on a typical school day, I would get around 6 hours of sleep. I also started occassionally doing a bit of weight lifting and push ups, and although I did eat more protein, it was far from enough. I didn't know that my bones needed protein too, I thought that I just had to drink milk for that. My muscles needed protein to repair and recover, so most of the protein that I ate went to my muscles instead of my bones. I would lift several times a week for an hour or two, I didn't even get buff or even strong. I just started lifting because I was the weakest in my class and I thought that normies would stop picking on me if I got stronger. They just kept bullying me for my looks, and I realised that when it was too late.

I was stressed out and I only got 4-6 hours of sleep on school nights. I am 5'9, but also very ugly facially, like people literally laugh at me when I walk past them. I've made threads about this before. I have a horrible genetic base. But my mom, as grateful as I am for her and everything she has done for me, could have done more for my physical development. I could have grown at least an inch, maybe even a few inches taller and my facial bones could have developed more, so that I'd go from a 2/10 to 3-4/10 overall. Now don't get me wrong, I would still be single due to my facial base, but at least people would be nicer to me and I could make some irl friends.
 
yes i stunted my growth too
 
Yes due to medication and bad sleeping. My brother is 15 and almost taller than me
 
it's mostly genetics, don't blame yourself

It was combination of shit genetic recombination and parents gaslighting me. I’m 5’4.

My dad is 5’10 and my mom is 5’0. My brother is 5’8. Naturally I thought I was going to be his height at the very least, but I didn’t. My parents kept telling me that would I eventually grow, but I didn’t. I believed it even as my peers kept growing past me.

Even then, had I known better, my parents have said they wouldn’t have given me HGH because “height isn’t a big deal”
 
Being stressed constantly lowers your testosterone thus stunts your height and facial bones growth

Brutal :cryfeels: your parents are actually evil man, how can you be so bluepilled when it comes to your own child's development
 
I probably did as I ate risperidone when I was child, a lot of stress and bad mood, energy drinks and too little sleep during teens, started smoking at 17. My sister is almost same height as me. I ended up being 5'8 in tallfag country.

I was chronically online even back then so I could have at least done research on how to grow taller. Instead I was too busy playing video games and watching youtube memes
 
Add to this: problems with falling sleep resulting from constant stress and in some cases autism or ADHD - thus lower HGH production and less height grow, and microplastics and estrogen in food and tap water - which closes growth plates in bones sooner than it should

you don't grow tall just because you spend time outside, you need taller biological parents for that.
 
I started working at 15 and ate one slop meal a day.

maybe i could have gained an extra inch or two if i had a normal life

You can take while in puberty aromatase inhibitors to slow down closure of your growth plates and HGH supplements to speed up height grow and gain about 4 inches on average to your genetic height
 
Surprisingly no
 
I'm just starting to realise that most people are a few inches shorter than they should've been due to modern diets, even 6'0+ people, but they usually have taller parents than I do. My genes are bad, but with better lifestyle habits and a better diet, I could have been saved.

i know there are some very expensive growth hormones injections which may help during puberty, but most people can't afford it.
What i meant is that child of 155cm mother and 170cm father can be a food and supplement coper as much as he wants but will be shorter than kid of 170cm mother and 185cm father, which ate goyslop during his puberty period.
 
I’m 5”9 and my dad is 6’4 so I must’ve done something to be this unlucky

They aren't that expensive, most teenagers at looksmax.org can afford them from allowance parents give them
 
Man, in the 90's slop was most of what we ate
 
Possibly. I'm not an expert on this stuff, but I did quite a bit of the stuff you've mentioned and I know that my mom at least blames the medication I had to start taking in my mid-teens for me growing to be the shortest person in the family, if only by a few centimeters.
 
Im 511 and should have been 6.2
 
frankly i dont care. being 5'9 instead of 5'6 wouldnt save me.
 
When I was 14 I used to hang from the ceiling with a hanging rod. Guess it didn't help afterall.
 
I probably did, wouldn't be surprised.
Guess if I ate a better diet, worked out more,.went more outside etc I could have been at least 5'10 barefoot
I'm 5'9 now. Every inch extra is better than this height
 
Definitely. My nutrition was horrible back then because of picky habits, my mom never let me go outside, staying up reading hentai, the rest goes on and on... Didn't help that my father was the shortest out of his two brothers, but it is what it is.
 
Don't think so tbh I was just destined to be manlet
 
I definitely did. If I had to attribute it to something, it would be lack of sleep. It's only been since high school ended that I actually get sufficient amount of sleep. Prior to that, I'd only sleep 3 or 4 hours. I don't know how the fuck I did it back then, looking back now. Only redeeming quality of mine is my body since I still workout, but that's it. Face is all fucked up beyond repair
