Venting I’m 5’5 and I hate it

I’m 22 years old and I’m 5’5 and I hate it. The thing is, I wasn’t even meant to be 5’5. How do I know this? Well, I basically starved myself from the ages of 12 to 14. The reason for this is because I had severe social anxiety, and because of this I was too scared to eat lunch at school. So I skipped lunch for 2 whole years. I only ate breakfast and dinner at home from the ages of 12 to 14. I was basically fasting for two years. And you all know that growth occurs the most during your teenage years.

What if I had actually ate lunch during those two years? Then I’m 100% sure that I would’ve been atleast 5’7 today. Or maybe even 5’8 which is my dream height. People might say that I was supposed to be 5’5 due to genetics. But diet plays an important role as well. Yes, both of my parents are shorter than me. But I have an older brother who is 5’8.

I have so much anxiety about my height that I’ve been having thoughts about wanting to travel to Turkey and get a leg lenghtening surgery. What they do is that they break the bone and use a device to pull the bones apart, so that the bones grow back longer. It is extremely painful and also expensive. Too bad it’s illegal in my country so I have to go abroad to be able to do it.

I’ve tried temporary solutions such as wearing shoes with platforms. But those are just temporary solutions. I want a permanent solution. I want to be the height I was meant to be. I’m a freaking dwarf. I’m below average height in my country. I’m either the same height or shorter than the majority of girls here.
I had to wait for food until 5 or 6 pm after eating only breakfast and lunch, I was hungry and if i didnt like the food i had to sit there until me and the food rotted, One time i sat there for 12 hours traight, I hated that veggie ball that tasted like i was eating poo when it squish, NO THANKS.
 
Im sorry bro at least your taller than your parents you beat the odds. I'm in a similar situation in my family my parents are 5'6 and 5'8 im 5'7 and my brother is 6'
Is 180/511? Im 180
 
this man.

my brother is 6'2 and dad is 6'1. at my teenage years, I had pics standing next to my friends where I was around 10cm higher than the average. Then malnutrition came and I stopped growing.

I still prefer to be my height than to do LL and cripplemaxx
 
Yeah at 5ft5 it’s over sorry boyo
 
I feel for you. Don't let anyone tell you that height doesn't matter, or that a foid who doesn't like you just because of height isn't worth your time. fuck life, fuck the genetic lottery, being short is fucked and short men are only allowed to exist for society to mock.

the world is rich, HGH is plentiful and can be safely used under medical supervision. there could be NO short men (barring extremely rare genetic defects like dwarfism) if HGH was a standard thing.
 
Bro, I don't think skipping lunch will make you smaller. I was really skinny all my life and i never ate a lot. Sometimes I ate only dinner. My brother, on the other hand, was fat fuck. He was one year older. He was even bigger than me when he was a baby. But now I'm bigger than him, so i dont think skipping luch will make you smaller. Dont blame yourself for that. It is like 99% genetics and that's it. I have a lot of friends that ate shitty food all their lives and they're athletes with perfect bodies, great hair and height. Its just genetics. And, you can't even blame your parents for shitty genetics, because genetics are like lottery. Have you ever seen Ashton Kutcher Brother? Ashton mogs him to oblivion but they both have same parents. Its just nature. Only thing you can blame is nature. It is what it is bro and you have to deal with it. Like for sure if you have beutifull parents then there is big chance the kid will be beautifull and healthy but thats not always the case. Only thing you can do is cope tbh or do surgery but that shit is painfull and pricey. Just find some copes that make you have or save up for surgery, but theres literally nothing else you can do for your height bro :/

If it helps you feel better you wouldn't have been taller anyway, it doesn't work like that. For example North Korean citizens who defected to SOuth Korea gained height when they started eating properly as they were essentially starved in north korea, some of these defecotrs were 40 year old men. Lack of food does stunt growth but once you resume to normal you're fine. Main point is, don't cry over spilt milk.
Also do NOT go to Turkey, they have a lot of unregulated surgeries and its just not safe, its not worth the risk. IT may be more expensive but if you're gonna do LL surgery just go to the US or a proper regulated western surgery
 
So stupid.
My grandfather was 6'2, my dad was 5'9, and im 5'10ish and I ate mac n cheese for breakfast from 7th grade to 11th grade and skipped lunch every day and it didn't affect anything at all.

It's just some unlucky recessive genes.

Not end of the world at 5'5 just harder. I know a few guys who are like 5'5 or 5'6 who got some W girls. No worries. Just focus on your hair and face instead and youre good
 
Puff, That's nothing try being 5'3" my life is a living hell because of this

Found the IT cuck
 
I think you starving yourself is a cope. How underweight were you? You Have to Be really malnourished For it to affect growth. That kind of malnourishment doesnt happen in The West without junkie parents. You were just desyined For manletism and youre trying to cope because you cant live with The shitty reality. I was Also underweight before high School but grew to 187cm
 
Cope. Ossified bone is totally healthy unless you Are a boomer that is approaching death
Im coping? Lolol i dont need to do LL but good luck putting yourself in a wheelchair
 
I feel you. I wear platform shoes to put me at 5'7 whenever I have to be in the office.

I'm not going to spend 100k LLmaxxing because I'm sensitive to pain and cheap.

Hard coping. Skipping lunch for only 2 years wouldn’t have that much of a effect. Some spaces even argue that fasting promotes growth hormones. Blaming another factor else because you can’t accept things the way they are is soy
It has been proven that there is a significant increase after 24 hours of fasting. But the reality of the situation is that height is about 90% genetics. The Dinka people are in Subsaharan Africa, so quite malnourished and their average height is 182cm.
