Height is NOT the most important thing when dating girls

I also wear fitted clothing and I'm always looking to stay on slim/cut side as getting to big really does make you look smaller.The only reason I know my morning height and night height is because I have a stadiometer lol. In a relaxed position I'm 166-166.5 night and if i'm well hydrated and not very active during the day i can measure easily over 167. Morning height is about 168.3 on the dot but quickly goes down within the first hour. I hope hitting 5'8 feels good, reading your diary gives me that much more hope! I get caught up in the numbers game too but my goal is no doubt over 173 (or 172.7) 

lol well it sounds like you have a slightly better starting height than I did! I just know I was about 5'5 1/3" at night (166cm). I've never measured myself right after waking up in the morning, and most of the time when I have an early doctor's appointment, I've already been up for at least 2 or so hours. So I'm guessing at best I might be 167.5 in the morning.

And you mean 172.72cm I think you'll be fine. You have a better starting height than I do. I'm going to have to take up yoga and gluco supplements for the rest after I'm recovered lol

That's something i really want to do after LL, even if the gain is just 1 cm doing yoga and taking glucosamine seems legit. My posture isn't the best so more then 172.72 is a bonus  . (175 cm would be so cool if you could gain 2cm+ from yoga and gluco). Really looking forward to reading your post after LL at 5'8 and the difference it will make. Stay strong bro!

I gained 1 cm from yoga and the dynamic height increase programme (permanent). I also grew 0.5 cm using glucosamine supplements.

Please don't hurt your body trying higher than 1500 mg daily. I tried up to 10000 mg daily putting me at higher risk of Diabetes or gastrointestinal side effects. It doesn't affect the result.

I tried combining  with HA, but the result diminished.. Surprise surprise..

Any good book/pdfs on yoga that you can recommend? How about pilates? I'm going to check out the dynamic height increase program, Thank you Itsmylife!

I don't know my exact morning and evening heights, and I'd rather not lol. One doctor measured my height around 166.5+, but that was around 10am (though I had been up for hours already at that point). Dr. Guichet and another doctor both measured me at 166cm (when standing perfectly straight) around 2pm and 5:30pm respectively (I think we hit our "night height" after being awake for like 4-5 hours, I believe, I could be wrong. Sad how I'm obsessing over this lol).

So I think I'm just about tall enough now where I can comfortably say I'm 5'8". I'm also built, but thin (I always made sure NEVER to get too big, it makes you look shorter, and it's obvious you'e compensating), and I try to wear clothes are well fitted to give the illusion of more height.

yellow, you are correct. But one way you can maintain your morning height for a longer time is to sit slouched (130 degree is best, its proven). That reduces the intervertebral tension. I also always lie down flat on my bed or anywhere I can. It will give you a temporary 5-10 mm boost

Well, the topic at hand taken literally is very true, I wouldn't say height is the MOST important for dating. And probably not the MOST important for short term relationships either.

But height is of even more importance than usual with short term 'hookup' relationships, because ovulating women are shown to have a larger preference for taller males than non-ovulating ones. So essentially when she's horny she'll pick the taller male, probably because height is a very primitive and visceral thing, and it refutes the thought that women who like tall males are just doing so to 'keep appearances' so to speak.

This is gospel for all of us, bro

Obviously you're trying to trash what I wrote, but i've ran into multiple posts on here claiming that height is cultural rather than instinctual. And that 'height culture' is what has caused our woes and if it didn't exist everything would just be fine and dandy for us. So it is indeed gospel for some here. As a short male i'm not looking to cope about my height, i'm just looking for the facts.

In Asia there is this height thing going on, but I have rarely heard of height discrimination, except in dating. It seems most girls want guys above 170. Some 180 in Korea. The work-place discrimination.. I have never heard but it seems a country's leader is almost always tall?
