    You already know, but I'll post it here anyway... I'm just over 5' tall. My driver's license says 5'1", but it's being generous.
    I come from a short family. My hubby is just short of 6', and when we visit my parents, he feels like he's entered Munchkinland :D

    Apparently I'm 5'3 .. Totally assumed I got that extra inch, but no I stopped growing upwards at 14 and was just given this harsh reality check a month ago.

    I'm still not over my loss of that inch.

    Oh, and I have a deep respect for the ...'s .. see? I can't help myself! And I think they are made all the more fabulous by calling them ellipses!

    I used to be the tallest person. I should have posted my fourth grade class photo the other day on my school pictures post. I am even taller than Naldo Peeples and his afro. Why do I remember his name??

    Then, in 6th grade...it happened. I stopped growing. And everyone surpassed me. By a lot. They grow 'em tall here. I was 5'6 at 10. And I think I've shrunk to about 5'5.

    I am 5'6" tall. However people always think I'm taller because I refuse to wear any flat shoes (except tennis shoes). I also weigh 162 and I am about a size 12 or 14. Not that you care, but I thought I'd give you a good visual.

    I am 6' 2". Just kidding. I have claimed 5' 5" for a long time, but I think I am really 5' 4" now. I have heard that every extra inch of height means another 5 pounds for a healthy weight. I sure wish I was 4 inches taller ... or 20 pounds lighter. Maybe doing some stretches would help me reach both goals?
