5'6 and currently 93 lbs. Happy with the height. The weight, not so much.

I have a friend who struggles to keep weight on, too. I hope your health is okay and it's only a fluke that you burn the calories away. Be well.

Thank you so much. Having a few health issues but nothing I can't handle. The funny one though is I am hypothyroid which means I should be putting on weight not losing it. Tell that to my body though lol.

I'm just a hair under 5'2'' and while being taller would have its conveniences (example: not having to hem pants, better weight distribution) I really don't mind being short. It's kind of part of who I am, so it's difficult to imagine myself being a tall woman. I literally have the shortest legs ever--my inseam is 27 inches.

My husband is 6'3'' which is kind of funny...

I'm just shy of 5'11. I'd like to be taller but I'm very lucky to be this tall. My dad is 5'6 or 7 and my mom is 5'1. My sister is also 5'1 so I got real lucky. I'm one of the taller people on my mom's side and I'm pretty much the only one without gut and don't need eyeglasses.

GOT LUCKY
