Holy crap ladies and gents,i got a stadiometer delivered today and got measured at 176.2cm or 5'9.375,pretty confused right now don't really no what to think.When i was 17 i thought i was 5'10,then at 18 found out i was 5'9(in my mind)then at 20 remeasured myself at 5'10,all against a doorway.So i when i was 5'10 originally i was a very strong 5'7 probably,then when i was 5'10 again i was actually 5'8,then finally at 5'10 again i'm 5'9.F u c k my life,and i was about a quarter of an inch shorter before starting letrozole 9 days ago,on the plus side they'res still hope to get taller but 5'10 is actually what 5'11 was to me before,so now a solid 5'10 is the realistic goal lol.In conclusion guys buy a stadiometer or keep getting inaccurate measurements.Also i now realize they'res no way 5'10 is average if im 5'9 in england in a rural english village full of whites,and i feel above average if anything at times,these studys i know now are definitely inflated,all my friends i know are estating now pretty much also.

Quote from: myloginacc on September 10, 2018, 11:04:30 AMYou're essentially 5'10. The Imperial system is shxte.

No one sees a difference between a 176.8cm and a 177.8cm outside of the US.

And remember, you have to measure yourself with your stadiometer just after waking up if you want your max height.

Thanks for the encouragment,but anything but evening height imo is cope,i'll still try to reach 5'11 evening height regardless,but 5'10.5 i should be content with,we shall see.

Quote from: CommanderSalamander on September 10, 2018, 12:16:38 AMCongratulations, you're exactly average. If you were 5'10 then you would be in the 1/3rd most lucky people and if you were 5/8 then you'd be in the 1/3rd less lucky people if you even want to be tall. If you would prefer saying that you're 5'10 then nobody would care as most likely you're closer to that height in the morning and when you're wearing shoes, you're probably around that height which would be above average, so just claim that if you please. Nobody will think any higher of you if you were taller, honestly, and if they do then they're non-genuine. I can relate because I discovered that I was 6'1 & 1/2 and I was claiming to be 6'3 and that's what people estimated my height to be and now it varies between 6'2 & 2/3 to 6'3 & 1/3, so I just say 6'3 as anyone else would do.

I'm to honest to claim 5'10 tbh lol and yea i'm 5'10 out of bed,thanks for sharing,at 6'2 i think it's much easier to exaggerate it slightly as you're considerabley taller than the norm.

Update i'm actually 5'10 now,just grew 0.25 inches out of no where after binge drinking alcohol heavily for 5 days straight.Also of the letro,so i assume it's the estrogen rebound from the alcohol probably lol,making my plates close faster.And no it couldn't be a measuring error,i always measure under the same circumstances.

0.25 serious?
this is just a variation in the compression of your spine, believe me my height will be much more than that in the day, between 1.5cm sometimes 2cm and this is very common,
if you stretch for 1 month like yoga or pilates, you arrive easily at 1.78m

Yea i was being serious it's not a variation error i genuinely grew quarter of an inch.

Quote from: myloginacc on December 02, 2018, 02:13:09 PMAre you sure you grew? Most of your epiphyseal plates should already be closed by 20.

Yes i'm sure as i only measure myself after lifting weights,or after a run to keep things consistent.
