Wrong. Look at recent diaries of guys that did 10-12. look at their posted pictures. At least with clothes it can look more normal than you think. One of my LL buddies did 10.5 and he looks great. Couldn‘t tell he did LL.

4 months after surgery.  So 2 months into consolidation I'm hoping to be able to go to a restaurant and look normal enough for people to not ask questions.  I wouldnt try going for a hike in daylight with family.  But if I can see them once it will go a long way to normalizing relations and not drawing suspicion.  Maybe its still too ambitious idk.  I really wish I had done this during covid...what a perfect time.

Helpful, I get what you're saying.  Basically shifting your femurs lower and elongating your torso.

With 5cm you don‘t have to worry. I met a friend who I haven‘t seen since surgery, I was at 6cm and he didn‘t even notice any difference (in legs or height What is the bigger give-away that you had LL: proportions or overall height?. )
Also with 5cm you will recover very fast I think 4-5months is feasible.

I hope so.  I ran 3 miles every other day for like 15 years and Im very in shape.  So I'm hoping that conditioning gives me some sort of advantage.  But maybe its completely irrelevant when you break your legs and pull apart your muscle.
