HEY GUYZ!
I really really want to grow taller! Im about 5’5 but i want to be atleast 5’6-5’7!! I’m going to turn 14 pretty soon….firstly, will i grow anymore? If so, how tall can i be?
My mom is 5’3 and my dad is 5’11. My brother who is 15 is 6’1….and my aunt is 5’6.5….if that helps…
Please tell me how i can grow taller: kinds of exercise, food, stretching stuff etc.!
I weigh about 102-105 pounds…not sure ![]()
PLEASE HELP ME! I WANNA BE TALL!
I’m 14 (nearly 15) and i’m 5’3. They say you can’t grow 2 years after your period starts, but that’s not true because I just shot up about an inch.
My dad is 5’9 (he used to be 5’10 though).
My mum is 4’9 (she used to be 4’11).
Just saying that because my parents are old and have obviously shrunk. So the real heights are 5’10 and 4’11. My older sister (who is an adult/finished growing) is 5’7. At my age, she was about 5’5, if that’s any indicator. So i’m 14, 5’3 and 100 pounds (if weight is a factor). My shoe size is 8 in American.
How tall do you think i’ll be ?
So I’m 5’7 and guess how old I am? 12! Can you believe that? I’m as tall as my mom, my mom is 5’8, and my dad is 5’11. I don’t want to get to 5’10 AT ALL. I want to stop getting taller.! I used I drink SO much milk a day. Then I stopped, it made me grow slower, kinda. But I lost a lot of weight. I also have long legs. I drank more water. So what makes you stop growing naturally. I’m pretty sure I’m not going to grow any taller than 5’10.
I am 13 year old girl and currently 5’2 and the doctor x-rayed my knee for medical reasons and saw the growth plate in my knee and he said the tallest I will get is around 5’3. But I have heard that if you have big feet that means you will grow taller. My foot size is 7 1/2. Will I grow any taller? My parents heights are 5’3 (mom) and 5’9 (dad) if that matters. Also, will exercises help me grow taller? I play volleyball and I’m joining a gym and going to do classes like yoga for athletes and pilates.
My parents are not that tall, I am almost as tall as my Dad and taller than my mom. Are there any good exercises which I can do to grow? Will I still grow taller? I am 5’4. Any good fitness exercises?? Or maybe a good diet!
I am really really really short. I don’t know my actual height but when i compare myself to my other friends, i am quite short. I get picked on about it most of the time and now it’s really starting to annoy me. Are there any foods that i can eat to make me grow or any exercises that i can do? I don’t know whether it’s in my genes or what as my other siblings are quite short and my mum is quite short apart from my dad and my brother. Any advice will do thanks.
K so I’m 11 year old girl. My mom is 5"7 and my dad is 5"11 3/4. I have strong genetics from both my parents. My mom was her height when she turned 12. I’m going through my puberty and I’m almost done with it. I started in 3rd grade. Since it’s summer here are the things I get to do almost every single day:
-Sleep 10-12 hours
-Drink lots of milk
-Swim a lot (My grandma and my neighbor both have a pool)
-Eat lots of veggies (We have a huge garden)
-Walk atleast 2 miles a day (Me and my mom take a walk every day)
-I’m a water baby! (Been drinkng it a lot since I was a baby) It’s my favorite drink!
-I NEVER drink caffeine
-I hate junk food and food with lots of sugar. So, I don’t have to worry about that.
I’m 5"00 and I want to be about in between 5"3- 5"5 before schools starts.
(Me wanting to get taller has nothing to do with school or popularity)
Plz don’t say you can’t force it and it depends on your genetics.Plz just leave some ways NATURALLY that I can grow taller. I will not take a pill or anything to do with medicine and stuff that isn’t natural. ![]()
Another thing, not bragging, I’m really strong. I can pick up both of my best friends’ at the same time. So I can hold about 200 lbs. I think I have lots of muscle cuz one time when I got mad I broke a wooden chair by hitting it. I know u probably wont believe me or you’ll say i have anger issues but its the truth.
My pedetrician says that I will grow somehow more to the height of my Dad , that means almost 5’6” and possible taller. Also I wear a 9 shoe size. I also wanna be a VS model. I have asked a VS model about her height and she told that she was 5’4” almost at the age of 15!!! Now she considered to be 5’8” but as I read nobody believe that she is that tall. Will I be taller for sign in a modeling agency and , be a future model, of Victoria’s Secret?
Currently i’m 17 y/o, 5’9" (69 in.) about 160 pounds. My dad is 5’11" and my mom probably 5’5". My older brother however, is at least 6’1". I don’t want to be taller just because every guy does, I want to be taller because tall people are naturally stronger than shorter people. Not always, but very often. Take a man who is 6 foot, and another who is 6’5", the taller man probably will have more muscle mass and will be able to put on more muscle and weigh more than the 6 foot man and still be healthy. I want to be a Pararesueman, which is search and rescue in the Airforce; very tough, very elite. If I were taller I could be much stronger and able to perform more physically demanding tasks (carry people, lift heavier objects/people, ect). Is there anything naturally I can do? I’ve heard of supplements that can add inches to your growth; are any proven to work or are they B.S.? Anything you can suggest helps. I’m shooting for 6’4", I’m not sure why, it just seems like an ideal height for me. I don’t expect God to come raining down and zap me with a lighting bolt to make me taller, but please take this seriously as this could significantly impact my career choice and how I perform at it. Thanks.
ok so im 16 yrs old and im 5’8 i weigh 210lbs i know im on the heavy side but i wanted to know if i would get any taller and is there a possibility that ill hit at least 6’0 my dad is 6’5 but my mom is a small 4’5. The other thing is nowadays with the girls ppl are so sex driven at such a young age and i know im not large enough for anything and theres been plenty of oppurtunities that ive had with girls that ive always wanted to get with but im too ashamed to go anywhere because im afraid of being embarassed because this is embarassing to pull out on a girl and actually expect her to do something with 3 inches in my opinion this is wrong its not even big enough to pleasure anyone and there was even one girl that i really truly liked her but we didnt go anywhere because i was ashamed of this. so id like to know of any ways to enlarge myself naturally w/out any pills or injections, etc. im already losing weight if thats a facor 4 times a week i do cardio for 45 minutes alternating between a gym and running at the park. I have also been watching what i eat. if i could reach 6 inches i would b
Everybody else in my family is tall: My mom is about 5’8", my Dad is 6′, and my brother is 6’2". I’m 14 and I’m only 5’4". I weigh about 145lbs. I eat normally, I workout, I’m pretty active, but I just won’t grow! I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or if I’m just naturally short? If there is anything I should eat more of, certain supplements I should be taking, et cetera, don’t hesitate to tell me! Please help!
EDIT: I play lacrosse, a sport that is very dependent on height. I’ve been knocked down numerous times. Though I do possess excellent skills in the sport, my height really cancels it out.
Okay before all of you call me an ungrateful child all you have to understand one thing. I am not ungrateful in fact I don’t even ask for a million things a week. Okay so where to start. My mom is a person who just is negative naturally apparently. She if very disrespectful to me and always yells like crazy for everything. Usually I’m calm and quite but over the years from so many arguments with my dad and all the comments towards me and my dad have molded my image of her as "negative and annoying" I still love her but I just can’t stand being around her too long. She is also very intimating, she tries to yell at you until you get scared. She says I’m disrespecting her but I try to be as a good as I can to her. Yes I have mood swings I’m a teenager. I can be irritated at this age fast but I try my best to not. I hate being an ass. So heres an example thats disrespectful to my mom. Just yesterday my mom was so rude enough to tell me to move instead of saying excuse me, so I said don’t say move say excuse me. I might have said a bit aggressive but I did not mean to say it like that. Anyway my mom starts yelling at me and acting like I said fuck off to her. So she starts to yell more and I get pissed off because she is being really mean to me and all I did was ask for a simple excuse me instead of just move. Apparently i can’t have an opinion or respect without being yelled at so out of anger my mom takes the glass cup and throws it at the wall and it breaks of coarse. Then she tries to hit me bare in mind I’m 14 and a guy. Plus taller than her. So she tries to hit me but i just grab her arms in defense I would never hit her but i won’t let her hit me I’m not a baby anymore. I just yell at her cursing at her for trying to hit me. So then she takes my phone away. And I go to my room. I really hate when we fight but she can piss anyone off. My is really stressed with life. All is a 100 pounds to her, work, kids…. a bit ironic she wanted kids now she is tired of kids. I can’t deal with her for long. We argue a lot for no reason. She starts arguing with me for anything like its a drug for her to do it. On top of that she never wants to lose a fight. If I say I don’t like this she just says go to your room. She avoids the problem to save losing an argument. Please I need help any suggestions. My mom says I’m disrespecting her but she does not even respect me half the time. Please no answer like you need to grow up. or something like that. I hate it when adults just attack the kid thinking he or she is just ungrateful. Then when I’m adult I just magically go through a transformation and I think different. I’m still the same person. I have a problem and need help. I don’t want to fight with her. But its hard not too when she starts most of the problems. I feel like I’m in a mine field with her a wrong move and boom I explode. Thanks for your answers =)
I’m currently 5’8 at 17 and have a 4’11 mum and a 5’7 dad. I assume they shrunk a inch or two as they’re 50+.
You see, I want to be a high fashion male model but the requirements are high, minimum at about 5’11.
I’m from an asian ethinic background (Cambodian and Chinese) but I have been told I had tall grandparents, two uncles and a aunty who died in the Pol Pot War. I say this because my mum and and two surviving uncles were quite short (mum side, uncles about 5’6) compared to their siblings. Mum told me that the goodlooking people had to die etc Have no idea why? (my mum is just short, thankfully). I don’t want you guys to get too attached to this story but yes, I had uncles, aunties and grandparents around 5’10 to 6ft plus. This is just my mum side, I rarely talk to my dad as we bicker occasionally.
My shoe size is 11 ½ inches US which is awkwardly not proportioned to my height (dunno whether it’s a sign). I’ve never really had a growth spurt, I just gradually grew into my height. Mum said I was about 3ft when I was 2….
I’m just psyching myself out because I do think I will get upset if I don’t grow anymore.
Lately, I’ve been taking nature owns multivitamins to replace all my missing supplements and drinking milk and I do sleep 8 hours a night even on school nights.
Is there anyway to improve my chances on becoming taller, even though I might not?
As I assume the majority of users on WP are over 18, are there people who’ve had similar worries to me at my age and realised they actually grew taller? Like how tall were you at 17 and how tall are you currently?
P.S. As I’ve taken time to write my message, please don’t copy and from some other similar post but tell me what you think etc.
And don’t tell me things that I probably know… Such as the exact age when people stop growing
i’m 14, almost 160 cm, i really want to grow taller, i got my period like almost 4 years ago =.= could i still grow taller? my mom’s height is 158, my dad 170 cm, i’m like 0.5 cm taller than my mom right now, what do i have to do to grow taller?????? does cherifer work?
I turned 16 a month ago, and it’s gonna be summer now. I don’t know why, but I think I usually tend to grow over the summer, might be because I sleep alot more but I don’t know. Anyway, I’m about 5’10” and my shoe size is 8-9. My hands and feet are kind of small, but I’m okay with my height. My dad is 6’2” or 6’3” and wears shoe size 13, but my mom is like 5’5” and obviously has tiny feet lol. I was just wondering if I will sort of.. "fill out" over this summer maybe. I don’t care much about height but I do wanna know if it’s possible that my hands and feet will grow to more adult sizes, hopefully to shoe size 10 and hands a little longer/thicker since I’m guessing they’re not done growing. My dad’s feet didn’t stop growing until he was 18, but I don’t think I’ll be as tall as him. Anyway, that’s why I usually wait until end of the summer to buy new school shoes because I may have grown a size or half of one. So is there a chance I can grow this summer ? Or what can I do to promote more growth naturally in height and also extremities ? I know I can’t theoretically have another growth spurt, but if I have a good amount of growth left, will I see some this summer ? I haven’t grown for a while. Thanks. (: – Kev.
I’m 15 years old, and I’m 5’2" (157 cm) and I am pescatarian which means I eat fish but no other meat. I am concerned about my height, I am one of the shortest people in my year. Family from my dad’s side are ALL tall. Very, very tall. Then there is my mum’s side, they are avererage-ish and short. Is it possible that I grow taller than 5’5? I feel like I stopped growing, I’ve been 5’2 since I was 13! I also hate my height because I look chubby even though I naturally eat less than most people do.
I need your opinions and maybe some help in any way?
I’m 16 and she’s 14. We’ve been seeing each other for almost 2 years. I’m 5’6 and I don’t expect to grow much more. My dad is the same height and my mom is 5’2.
My girl comes from a tall family. Both of her parents are tall. When we met she was about 2 inches shorter than me and then she grew alot during the last 2 years and now stands 6’0 even in her barefeet. And she’s still growing! She likes to tease me by wearing high heels to tower over me even more and she stands close to me and look down on me to tease me and make me feel funny. She has one pair that’s so high that when she wears them I come up to her shoulder. I don’t mind it that much but she likes being naturally taller than me and I like her being taller than me now. I like her and she likes me but often we get stares and some people make comments. How do we deal with it?
I am starting to get a little concerned about my height…I am 14 (15 on march 21st), 5’3", and I went through puberty a few weeks before my 11th birthday. My shoe size is 8, my mom is 5’5" and my dad is 5’9.5"…how much taller will I get…will I even get any taller?
ok im 15 and 5’1 and my doctor said i wouldnt grow anymore cuz ive already been on my period over 2 years but i know thats not the case because like every girl at my school grows like 741862351657 feet over the summer eccept me. my mom is 5’1 and my dad is 5’11 and correct me if im wrong but usually kids are at least taller than ONE parent. also i weigh more and have a bigger shoe size than most people my height (im not fat i just weight more and people always comment on how tiny i am for my weight) and my shoe size is 7.5-8 so do u think i will still grow?
I took a few shots of Depot Testosterone in High School…in the back of my mind I have this terrible regret that I could have been taller…you see I’m pretty short (about 5’6") although my mom is about 5’0" (short too) and my dad is about 5’9" …do you think that I was just naturally ending up this height, or did I sabatoge my self?
If I was just supposed to be short than Oh well, what can I do…. I’m 24 now..(fully grown)
Also my sister’s really short, about 5’1"..so it might just be genetic…and all of my uncles are pretty short on my mom’s side
But my littel brother’s like three inches taller than me, with bigger hands and feet
I am turning 19 this year. I heard that guys start to stop growing or stop growing at the age of 18. Is that true ? I am 167 cm and only 2 cm taller than my mom. My younger brother 15 year old and is 176cm and my dad is 170cm something. I lose confidence in myself every time i look in the mirror. Is it still possible for me to grow taller ?
My little sister is 15 and she’s 5′ 2"
according to her growth charts she was supposed to be in the 5′ 6" – 5′ 8" range
but she has slowed down
she should be still growing but what can help her grow taller?
-her body is unproportional as her torso is longer
also, our mom is 5′ 4" and our dad is 5′ 9"
our older brother is 5′ 8" if that helps!
It all started during the summer i think. My nd has always gone off top her dad’s house every summer and com back being the exact same but taller, stronger and has longer hair. This year though, it seemed likle she really changed. At first IO thought it was because we’re getting into boys and we’re all bound to change, even her. then i started to notice that she’s changing in mopre ways then one. here are a few examples:
1. she used to listen to the Top 40 Coiuntdown, now it’s all greenday, nightwish, simple plan, evanescence,SR-71 anda little bit of Kelly Clarkson thrown in
2.she used to wear anything. lag warmers, bracelets, necklaces, dangly earings you name it, she would wear it. now she thinks and doesn’t choose anything even remotely eye-popping
3.she used to say the weirdest things ever. they were always random like "what would happen if i jumped off a building into a huge pool of jell-o and it wouldn’t come out of my hair?" now she barely says anything
4.she refused band-aids. i knkow that’s wierd but that what she’s do. she said she liked her cuts to heal naturally with out any creams or gunk like that. not she totally freaks out whenever she sees blood.
5.she used to be so open about everything that was happening around us. she used to talk nonstop about some butterfly she saw and the war going on and whatever she was having for dinner. now she doesn’t seem to talk about anything.
6. she used to be a pig. like literlly, she’d eat with her hands and face and her toes if you dared her. now she won’t eat anything but a sandwich with her fingers. even bacon. she barely eats anything anymore too.
I know i sound paranoid but this happened and i feel as if it’s my fault. It’s like she took allthat she was and slowly folded in the corners, getting smaller and smaller until all thast was left was a little stone that nobody can break into. are these changes just part of growing up?
I’m currently 5’2 and entering 9th grade in 2 months. My dad is 5’7 and my mom is 5’4. My brother is 16 and like 5’5(going on 17 in 3 months). Since i was 7 i grew a steady pace of about 2 1/2 inches. And my dad and mom were the youngest out of their 4 siblings each. Will i grow taller than my dad? My grandfathers were both 5’11+. Ok thank you.
Well I am asian. I am a 17 year old teenager, guy.
currently I am 5’8.5
but i wish to grow taller. something like 5’10.
Some of my teachers say that my face looks baby like. >.>
Does that mean I can grow taller?
My dad is only 5’5 and my mom is 5’4.
I weigh 135 pounds.
I know genetics play a big part but what kind of exercises is recommended to help growing tall?
Thanks..
