Since i found out about LL im determined this is what i want to do and i have now booked time for consultation in Germany. Im around 162cm and my sitting height is 83cm. Im aiming for around 7-8cm on femurs to reach close to 170cm. What would you say is my maximum height i can reach through LL without looking weird, especially when it comes to sitting height.

I did an internship during the summer and my boss was a good deal taller than me (he was about 187 cm, so about 15 cm taller). When we had lunch one day, we sat next to each other on two identical chairs, and his sitting height was the same as mine or even a little less. I kid you not, I was completely baffled by this, but it's true.
So sitting height can vary quite a bit, but it depends on the individual what you can lengthen. However, I think that the well-being of your legs and long-time recovery of physical functions is a lot more important than proportions, so don't go over 5 cm on tibia and 6-7 on femurs if you'd ask me for advice.
Interesting, i assume us who knows about LL tend to look and notice these things more often. But you are right, well-being is prio.
My sitting height is 83cm when i stretch my back so "normal" sitting height should be a bit lower.
Doing both femurs and tibia is to expensive for me i think, at least for now. I think my sitting height is a bit low, i just hope it wont make me look weird. Probably when i meet the doctor for consultation soon he will guide me through the whole thing and recommend a good length.
Im pretty sure i did the measuring right. But i have also noticed that i have a short sitting height.
