Quick update. I'll update more later, about to go for a run.
X-legs are still causing me trouble but I can feel a slight difference to the better. I don't get the same knee pain any more as I used to.
I run much more often now than before. I go to the gym and it is working much better.
My broken foot is the absolute worst. I'm about to get that fixed somehow. In Sweden it just takes forever.
I am healthy and have started a new job where I actually get paid way much more than before. Maybe it's a direct cause of me being taller. Taller people earn more....
I'm still married to the same woman. I drive a new car and about to buy a new fancy house.
Since I earn so much more I'm considering doing another 4cm. My shins are just too long. I did 7cm, it's just too much for the shins.
I got a new passport the other day and it says I'm 181cm in it. So cool 
I'll update more when I get back.

5'11 is dope height, congrats man.
Btw my orthopedic doc told me(since i have problems with left knee) to bike instead of running since running can screw up your knees especially joints.
Idk if it's true but you might give it a shot.

Im glad you are doing much better but that is really not a logical generalisation...

Yes it is. Surprised you didn't know about it.

-----------------
I was out running in the hills for 30 minutes and then took a walk for 2,5h bc of the weather.
We then went to Taekwondo class for another 2h and I was totally destroyed. Finished up with 1h bike ride.
I can barely move right now. Pushed for about 110%. I'll be sore the entire next week.
My stamina is around 50% of what it used to be. Very difficult to gain better stamina now.
Leg muscles are back at 70%. They still look small. Calf muscles have exploded, they're the worlds biggest. Even equal to my thighs, looks bizarre.
On a good day I still do the splits. I have difficulties reaching my toes with straight legs.
My shins are too long proportion wise. Don't pass 5cm on shins.
Explosiveness never came back. Impossible. Calfs are just big and blunt. There is no grace trying to jump on one leg. Overall jumping is very difficult.
Knees ache every morning. It is still difficult to get up each and every morning and take the first steps.
X-legs is still there and knees can ache sometimes bc of it although it has improved(the ache) last 6 months.
I'm going to a new physical therapist and the local orthopedic center is looking for a new solution to my feet. Not really suffering from ballerina but I would benefit from having better range of motion in my ankles.
Even though I've suffered a lot(many has suffered way much more but they don't know how to measure it so they think they're fine - they're not) I'm happy I did it. It is still absolute priceless meeting with new people and being at the same eye level or above.
I'm a full head taller than my wife too. It's just great. Pictures of us look much better. =)
Not sure what else to tell about. Ask me anything. I did the surgery in January 2013. 7cm, should have stopped at 5cm.
Still want 4cm on femurs - it won't improve my general proportions, only leg proportions.
You Say that I shouldnt go above 5? What do you think about 6 cm?

I think you shouldn't go above 5cm.
Well..idk that is kinda fked up.I was thinking that might apply to males who below 5'7 or around,but some of that websites say it exists until 6'.
Anyway so you want to do that another 4 cm because of your proportionally long tibia right?Not because you still didnt satisfied with your new height?(Ofc you will be taller which is even better but i just wonder if that is the main reason or not.)
What do you exactly feel in a freaking tall country like that as a 5'11 guy?
And im also curious about your x-legs.So if you have x-legs you must be taller than your current height with straight legs right?(i mean after you handle the problem
and finally what do you think about that video that you mentioned couple months earlier?I totally understand if you dont want to record.Im just curious about your progress.
Sweden,
Can I come live with you in Sverige?
