With that amount of back bending, I'd say you'll gain another 1-2CM based on what Apotheosis claims to have gained after he corrected his duck ass from lengthening 10CM on the femurs.

2cm sounds like a lot (almost an inch! Way too good to be true). I think .5-1cm is more like it. Funny thing is, the doctor at the isokinetic center (the day before I left to come home) said my duckass had improved a bit. It must've been damn terrible! I keep getting measured (in the evening) right around 5'8" (with pretty bad duckass as you can see)...so this makes me feel more confident that I definitely got my goal.
i think that you could gain about 1cm.
Does duckass cause you lower back pain?

I think it's starting to take it's toll on my upper back, actually. I notice when using my crutches, I feel a bit of pain in my upper mid back as I push off with my triceps/shoulders/upper back. But it seems to come and go. But my lower back doesn't have any pain from this.
Yellowspike, I think you should wait a while before you post pictures of how you look and videos of how you move. That duck posture doesn't give a clear view of your proportions anyway and we all know it's tough running and such so soon after lengthening.
Take your time and when you feel you've recovered decently, well, then post some videos like SHyshy did and upload a few pictures that show how proportionate you look. Just wear a mask or something to protect your identity, not that anyone here will bother to find out about you but it can still be uncomfortable to have your face on the internet.

Well, I'm not concerned at all about my proportions, I think they look great. I just posted these pics now because I was curious to see what you guys thought about how much height my duckass may have been hiding. The general consensus seems to be about 1cm, which is what I was thinking.
But I have no problem post a frontal pic of me (cutting my head off) just to show legs/torso and tibia/femur proportions (duckass won't affect that).
I'm taking the longer path to "ShyShy" land lol. He was already walking without crutches at this point. Dr. G said I could walk around my apartment without crutches, but I'm choosing to wait a bit longer. I want to reduce any health risks and risk of compression loss (even though it's only like up to 2mm that we MIGHT lose) as much as possible. So maybe I try my first few steps this weekend (2 weeks after my last x-rays where Dr. G said I could walk around my house without crutches).
I'd love to eventually be like ShyShy in a few months, though he did lengthen a bit more than I did (he got 7.5cm). ShyShy was my personal LL idol and inspiration.
by fixing your duckass, you will gain a good centimeter, maybe 1.5, but atleast 1

Sounds good to me, I hope I get at least 1cm, even .5cm will make me quite happy. Dr. G said that we sometimes lose up to 2mm due to compression (but not everyone does, and since it's a bit less than 15 clicks per 1mm, I have some "extra" to compensate anyway), so knowing that I still have some height hidden in my duckass makes care a lot less (I know it's not noticeable, but I worked too hard to lose anything, lol).
