HERE'S MY STORY----

I used to be overweight i used to be 5 feet 6 inches tall and 265 lbs when I was 16.One month before my 17 th birthday on March 3rd I started my diet. April is my birthday, Anyway I started it and I ended it on November 2007 which I was about 142lbs(EXTREMELY BONY). I dropped my weight fast, because I hardly ate and was belumic. I actually lost 80 lbs in 3 months. On June 2007 i looked great, but the annorexia and belumia did not stop till I feburary 2008. Did I stop growing or will I still keep growing, I hope I didn't put my body in a lot of torment.

TODAY

I have extra skin a lot on my stomach and am eating really healthy because I want to grow taller.

MY QUESTION IS

Will I continue to grow MY goal is to be 5'9. OR did I stop, I am actually kind of chubby now because of the weight gain I purposely added on. I am afraid to lose weight because It will affect my height. Please help me and let me know If I will grow taller, should I take super-growth. Thank you for you time and consideration.

THIS person told me that what I did, did not affect my growth but slowed it down. SO, is it true.

THANK YOU for your time and consideration.

Answer 1

It may have had minor effects on your height, but honestly, height is almost 100% depicted on genes and how you form in the womb. What you do outside of that has basically no effect, unless you had spinal injuries and such. Bulimia would really only effect muscle growth and other things, but not bone calcification and height.

Answer 2

Your non-eating caused you to me malnourished and may have affected your ability to grow for awhile. However - I am guessing you are male - if this is the case, you are only 18 - and it is very typical for guys to continue to grow until 23-25 yrs of age. Stick to a HEALTHY diet, and you should be fine.

If you are truly worried about it, seek a doctors permission to begin taking growth hormones, they can stimulate what you need to start growing faster.
