Finally! 3 months 5 days in and 50lbs gone gone gone!!!

 

Funny thing though, have always been 5 feet 1.9 inches, and today measured at 5'2"! am I getting taller? lol

 

Size 20 now! Haven't been 20 since university days! Having a lot of fun digging through old clothes, will shop for new ones when I reach size 18 :)

I am taller as well. I was 5'4" on the nose for the last 10 years, now I am almost 5'5"

awesome isn't it? wonder if we'll get any taller! lol

Maybe because the weight is not weighing down your bones? and they cant stretch out?? haha sounds logical to me lol

ooh cool theory! so maybe my actual height is 5'3"? one can dream! lol

Losing the weight is going to result in less compression on the cartilage, therefore, you should be a bit taller. Less cartilage comression, the spongier it can be. Think about all the cartilage in your spine.

We are all taller in the morning than we are at night just for this reason. Lose weight and the result is apparent always.
