Quote from: Alittletooshort on March 04, 2016, 12:37:00 AMIt´s your choice but I don´t think you´ll ever reach 190, you´re just unrealsitic about your goals. A minimum of 15cm is an icredibly bad idea, everyone who has done LL will tell you that.

Why reaching 190cm is unrealistic? in most of the diaries I read people lengthened around 7cm in each surgery. So if I lengthen 6.5 tibia and 7.5 femur, I will reach 190cm.

Because doing one surgery is one thing. Doing two surgeries is completely different. You can't just combine two diaries of single surgeries and then think that you can end up with the same results. You should pay attention to Iamready's diary. His diary is probably closer to what you can realistically achieve. But you can do 15 cm. Just don't expect a good recovery. Expect to be in a wheelchair or crutches or have really weak legs for a very very long time.

True, and that in the best of cases, if you go to a good surgeon like you did. If you choose a bad one and do such amounts you will never recover.

I am the same height as you are right now and I am telling you, your plan is extremely stupid.

To do 15 cm through 2 operations would be, did I say that, ridiculously bad idea. Not because it cannot be done and not because you cannot at least in the long run, recover most of your athetilc abilities. It is because it is not worth it !

There is so much more to life than height. I would understand you if you want to be about the average or even above the average. Thats why I wanna go from 175 to 180-182, havent decided exactly. But to 190 ? No way. Because nobody will perceive you better at 190 than at 182-3. There are other aspects that can make you attractive. For example:

Do you have a six pack ? Even if you do, you will not after the first surgery ?
Do you have a top job, education ?
Do you have nice clothes  ? Nice car ?

A smart think for you would be to do about 7 cm in one surgery...
Quite radical but within the boundaries of reason would be to do like 5 + 4 ...
anything more would drastically destroy your proportions, your athetic abilities, maybe your finances....

one last time. Being taller than 182-183 has no advantage whatsoever unless you wanna be a basketball player or volleyball player. The range 180-185 is considered the best height for athletes. Cristiano CRonnie7 who is arguably the most attractive football player is 185 and is considered very tall. Why the hell would you go through so much pain to be 190 ?

same here!!, wanna go from 173 to 179. At 173 i am shorter than 70% of the population within the 20-30 age group, at 178+ i am right at the 50+ percentile, for me that is an improvement, i will take it.But looking at current flexibility......maybe even 2 itches would be hard, idk. I am not trying to be super greedy or "tall" .

I can't for the life of me understand why someone who isn't living in Holland would care about being as tall as the average Dutchman.

Wait? You are not even dutch but care about the average heigh there?  Why do you want to have a CLL surgery?
Man that is on hell of a stupid reason to become 190, accept 183 thats the most you can get out one surgery (8cm´s on your femurs equal to a gain of about 7cm´s). You will probably even regret doing this much on one segment  Why do you want to have a CLL surgery?.
I though you were from the netherlands. You should focus on things you can actually acciev, don´t waste your precious time on thinking how to destroy your legs just to become an akward looking, unproportionate 190 guy.
