I don't have osteoporosis so I have no idea where those inches went.

I am still miffed about it.

Go to the doc's in the morning! Due to gravity's pull throughout the day, we can lose up to an inch every day but you're tallest when you get up in the morning so go then.

I blame genetics for my own height issues. My father is 5'11" and my mother was 5'4", so it would be logical to assume I'd be between the two, right? NOPE! Genetics threw me a curve ball and I'm 5'1.5" because my mother's fraternal twin sister is 4'11".

Now that's some shit. Blew my mind when I started learning about genetics in my biology classes. Everything made sense then!

For thread compliance, I am typing right now.
