Growing at age 17 for male?

Question

Hi im 16 male will be 17 this november...im about 5.8 ft and my dad is maybe around 5.11, hes about somewhere 3inches taller than me...can i still grow? but i must admit my diet hasn't been too good two years ago-barely ate anything for maybe like 5 months coz of stomach problems and getting surgery n stuff which wasn't too good...can i grow to my dad's height if i have a good diet n exercise consistently?

Answer 1

Look at it this way:  You could probably reach your Dad's height - but you could never fill his shoes.  Some people continue to grow into their mid-20's.  Anything is possible.  Continue with the good diet & exercise to maintain good health & possibly grow a couple more inches or so.  Be happy with what you end up with - attitude means a great deal.  Good luck.
