"You can't change your height" — bullshit! Why are fat and short people so pathetic?

[Anonymous]

When I was 16 my height was 5'8''. I didn't get an inch from 16 to 17, maybe only half an inch. I was also very skinny and weak. I used to be that smart guy with a cute face who many girls dream about but I didn't date anyone because I was very insecure.

Then I decided to change myself. I bought a horizontal bar and started doing pull ups, leg ups and other exercises. I am now 20 and 5'11'' tall. Not only I became taller, I also became stronger. Despite becoming taller I don't look skinny now, I have a six pack and bigger arms. I became confident and now that I am smart, strong and not short I just laugh at those guys who thought they were superior to me. I continue working out and hope to get at least 1-2 inches taller and become even more jacked.

Now there are you — short, weak and fat guys and girls who complain about their lives and keep on telling how your body is not that important and that you can't radically change your weight and can't change your height at all. Maybe you should stop speaking bullshit and start working to improve yourself?

I don't want to work out, I want to sit in front of my computer and write some shit on GAG!

I try to work out but that doesn't help me, I am still short/fat. I need to work out more.

I am already tall and fit, good post bro!

The point of this post is not to insult fat or short people but to encourage them to improve themselves both mentally and physically like I did. We can make the world better if we all did it.

[Tlnet]

I'm a dedicated gym rat and I do agree with your post that anyone can control their bodies if they put in the effort. ALSO your story sounds extremely familiar because I was just like you. I was the smart, skinny guy with the cute face who never dated anyone because I was too insecure. At 17 I was 5'6" and now at 20 I'm 5'10 pushing on 5' 11".
The only difference is I was always good at push ups and pull ups, and always had abs, but I only recently (1 year ago) took the initiative to bulk up and couldn't be happier with the results.

Also can you PM me? I would like to get to know you.

[USA2016]

I'm 6'3 220lbs, last year this time I was around 195lbs. You are right man, everyone can improve, they just gotta want it. Nice work!👏

[Asker]

You too, great work! I really admire people who improve themselves and not whine or insult those people who did.

[LilahSteph]

I don't agree, not everyone is as strong mentally as you are. I wish I can be like the models on the magazines, to lose more and more wait, I do exercise but that doesn't work when I'm angry and I can't express myself, I start eating, I eat to calm down and I know it's bad but if I don't do it I may explode. I think you should be more comprehensive to these things. We all live in different circumstances and each individual faces different obstacles from the other. You shall respect that.

[Asker]

Thanks for being honest and not hateful like those other guys. You should just ask yourself what future would you like to see yourself in. If you don't want to be thin then you are OK, but if you want to become fit then don't complain and start working. I hope my example will help you.

[Asker]

by the way you don't have to be model thin to be healthy and beautiful.

[LilahSteph]

There is no point in being hateful and insulting. Anyway, I think I'm happy with my body for now, I'm 60 kg for 5'4, I need to loose a bit more but I know I can't so I'm just content with who I am.

[Asker]

That's not fat at all.

[Asker]

I weighted the same when I was 17 but I was really skinny at that time.

[LilahSteph]

Omg, I'm so sorry, meant 70... My keyboard I a mess. Anyway, I'm kinda overweight according to my BMI but I am not obese.

[Asker]

Still not fat, I could date a girl that weight.

[LilahSteph]

Oww, thank you, but don't make me blush 😋

[Asker]

I was referring to unhealthy American-like girls when I wrote fat. Although I am pretty fit I don't mind dating a little chubby girl if she doesn't let herself become fat. I think most other guys are like me. If you are happy with your body then it's OK.

[Asker]

I think I saw your photo, you are very cute. Why did you remove it?

[LilahSteph]

I live mostly in France where girls freak out for one extra kg, where thigh gaps are welcome and thick thighs are a big no. I grew up in that environment and I tried hard to fit in but I realised with time that it's my body type and I'll never let myself get obese because I exercise a lot ( and eat a lot; never could, never would resist Tiramisu) I guess I'm hanging in the middle.

And about my picture, I removed it because there was a lot on display, it felt kinda cheap so yeah...

[Asker]

Well, I don't think those skinny girls are really healthy. I prefer average girls but chubby girls have their charm too. If you are healthy and exercise then you shouldn't even care about their opinion.

It was a wise decision to remove your picture because it's too yummy. Other girls must be really jealous of your chest. :)
You could at least keep your cute face though.

[LilahSteph]

Aha, I agree. I'd rather stay like this if it's healthier, at least now I have zero health problems.
Hahaha, nothing to be jealous of, every girl has her charm and if they knew the struggle they'd not be jealous at all. Oh my, stop making me blush!

[Asker]

You are very modest, your boyfriend will be a really happy man. Good luck. :)

[LilahSteph]

Thanks 😊

[Idonthaveausername]

I Happen to only be five feet tall. That is tall for my family and taller than my mother. Don't tell me that I can change my height. I stopped growing in seventh grade.

Now I do agree that you can control your weight and most people make excuses when it comes to weight.

But you need to cut back on the short shaming because that is not controllable. And studies have proven that working out vigorously as a child or teen stunts growth. Look at Olympic athletes.

[Asker]

Lifting stunts growth, but exercises like stretching, swimming and doing pull ups improves your height drastically.

[Idonthaveausername]

No it doesn't. Girls usually stop growing by 15-18. Boys grow between 12-16, then usually stop for a couple of years, and then finish growing by 22. You will probably not grow any taller now and the excercise you performed didn't affect your height.

[Asker]

There are guys who grew taller after 20 because of exercises. You won't grow if you don't believe in you.

[Idonthaveausername]

Not true. There are guys who grow taller after twenty without excercise. What's your excuse for them? My sister had a friend who did that.

In middle school I believed I'd grow to 5,1 or 5,2 because the doctor said I probably would. I believed him and it didn't happen.

[Asker]

The point of it — you shouldn't believe the doctors and better do exercises like those people who grew taller.

[Idonthaveausername]

I never said I didn't excercise. I had PE everyday because I was in school. I also walked home from school everyday.

And you just said I had to believe that I would grow taller, and I did believe it, but I didn't grow taller.

You must have also skipped the part where I said I'm tall for my family.

[Goldie757]

You grew 3 inches in 4 years, that would have happened anyway. Most guys stop growing at 21, guys can carry on growing until 25.

However people should not be complaining about being fat when they are not even trying to lose weight.

[Asker]

3-4 inches in 3 years because of exercises.

[Goldie757]

Nope, puberty.

[Asker]

Al my male relatives are 5'8''. I was destined to become that tall too.

[RainbowFanGirl]

Cool story bro. I was on the verge of 300 pounds and I got off my fat ass and worked on myself 🙂 I'm now much healthier and feel so much better about myself.

[Asker]

Great job, you look great! I am really happy there are people who understand I wrote this not because of my hate of humanity but because of my love to it.)

[LilahSteph]

So much respect 👏👏👏👏

[RainbowFanGirl]

Thanks for MHO ☺️

[Death_of_rats]

maybe you should have paid attention in school lol. you would have grown those extra inches anyway. getting fit did nothing to make you taller.

still sounds like you have a complex and a terrible attitude lol. keep pumping those roids though ;)

[Asker]

I already stopped growing at 16 and reached my relatives' max height.

[Death_of_rats]

you really are fixated on height aren't you?

[Asker]

No, I am now confident in myself. I just tried to send a message to all those fat girls and short guys out there who don't believe they can change. I changed, so why can't they?

[Outofthegrey]

You know how sometimes you see one of those idiots ranting on the internet and you think "You know, I almost feel bad for that guy, he must really lead a hollow, empty, pathetic, lonely, life of squalor and filth"

[Asker]

I rant because people are so stupid, indecisive and undetermined and yet they complain how life is hard for them! Start working.

[Negrodamuss]

i''d have so much more respect for these posts if the OP had the courage to go off anon. You just look like a bitch with a chip on your shoulder

[Asker]

I don't want to receive height messages from fat girls and midget guys who do nothing to improve themselves.

[Asker]

hateful messages*

[Anonymous]

You can't change your height and you were still growing regardless what you did and most guys stop growing at 20 but of course you can change the rest of your body and it's nice that you were motivated and changed your looks👍

[Asker]

I stopped growing at 16-17. That height increase is due to the exercises.

[Opinion Owner]

No that's not true, you're lucky it didn't stunt your growth since if you start to early it can mess it up , you were going to grow anyway, I was the same way at your age and stop growing at 20 so I'm talking from experience and you look it up because excercise won't make you taller

[Asker]

They MAKE you taller. I am not the only one who grew taller.

[Opinion Owner]

Only one? I've seen two brothers 4 years apart and 2 inch difference in height when they stopped growing and neither one worked out, everyone is different. Just like I'm 5'10 but my dad is 5'7" and my mom was 5'4" so I'm taller than my parents but my younger brother is the same height as me though. Height can't be controlled

[Asker]

If you think so then you can't control it. The key to changing your height is believing in your capabilities. This is the key to lots of things though.

[Opinion Owner]

Yeah I kept wanting to grow taller when was in middle school because I was short and wanted to reach my uncles height since he is 6'2" but didn't happen but at least I kept growing till 20

[_HimigNgKalayaan_]

That's a very sexy sensual post bro. Thanks for sharing

[betweenthebars]

You fapped ;)

[Slave4allfem]

Hey my man... hit me up! I didn't catch your age, but you must be pretty young. I'm shocked at just how immature you are. You said that you are smarter now? But then you said that you have worked out to become taller? I was fat at one point too; and I began exercise; lifting etc. As well as many other things to improve my confidence (which really, is the only thing that matters in the end). I'd love to chat with you about it. I'm curious too; like to ask you some things

[Josht13]

I'm only 5'4 but I have been regularly going to the gym for a year have a six pack and decently muscular (still skinny though tbh).

Bruce Lee was only 5ft 7inches and he looked alright

[Asker]

For a Chinese manlet.

[Zippitywhoopwhoop]

Height is not able to be changed after you reach a certain age. You likely were not done growing yet

[Anonymous]

You got taller through no effort of your own. It's called puberty...

[Asker]

Another ignorant guy here.

[Opinion Owner]

The only ignorant person here is you.

And technically you're still a manlet www.google.com/webhp

5'11 people are known as "the king of manlets" but you are a manlet nonetheless. Anything under 6 feet is considered manlet. So near yet so far. So you're a manlet and you aren't very bright (by your lack of a 5th grade health class education)

[Asker]

I am still growing dude. I'll soon be a manmore.

[Opinion Owner]

Nah you're done.

[ACrazyHaggis]

nice can you splice genetics? if you can give me a shout with that?

[thecalmerface]

no you grew up naturally. lol... it's not possible to increase your height.

[Asker]

I stopped growing at your age dude. Stop making excuses to being a manlet.

[thecalmerface]

no, i'm talking about basic human physiology dummy.

[Asker]

5'8'' is the height of my father and brother, my mother is much shorter. ROFL.

[thecalmerface]

i don't care about your family. lol. i don't need to.

[thecalmerface]

i just gave my opinion about this. if you don't like it... tough.

[Asker]

You can cry or start working to become taller. I posted this not because I am so arrogant but because I don't understand why people give up so easily.

[thecalmerface]

cos it's not possible. oh, i'm near six feet, so i'm not complaining from that standpoint.

but cool, ignore all medical evidence and deny you grew naturally.

[Asker]

I grew naturally because of the exercises. If I didn't do them I'd be 5'8''-5'9'' like my relatives.

[thecalmerface]

that's not possible. lol.. do you have some mental/social disorder that causes you to not accept opinions? lol.

[Asker]

Dude, if that soothes you that you had no chance to avoid being manlet then you are welcome. Just don't mislead other guys who can still grow taller.

[thecalmerface]

no you're the manlet who pushes basic lies. i'm already tall, i don't need to grow. lol. you're just a poof who doesn't get it, and wishes to grow, since he cannot accept himself.

[Asker]

Whatever dude bye-bye.

[thecalmerface]

cool mr. aspergers, you get attacked and cannot handle it, when you get attacked back haha.. fuck off aspie.

[Asker]

How can I handle your stupidity and unwillingness to believe to my story and the stories of other guys who grew taller? You just have a chip on your shoulder because you are short and can't grow taller and so you insult people who achieved something in their lives.

[thecalmerface]

i'm short? haha.. not really. but cool, go away now.

[betweenthebars]

Bruh, you're 5'11, not 6'5

[Asker]

So what? I am no longer a manlet. I'll soon become taller than most people in my country.

[Anonymous]

Cool story
