Chubby 13 Year Old's Fat turns into Height ?

Question

Well Im 13 and a boy Im not really fat but Im not all that thin either, Im how you say chubby, my 17 year old cousins tell me that my fat will go into height, is that true and if so when ?

Answer 1

not true at all.  if fat in anyway converted to hight, my oldest brother would be like, nine feet tall, cause he used to be fat, and my younger brother would be short as h**l cause he had no fat when he was younger.

fat is fat, you either gain it or loose it, it cant turn into anything else.

Answer 2

If you start to grow  you will probably lose some of your fat. Growing takes a lot of energy. And some people thin out.
