Answer 1

you probably just measured wrong one of the times

Answer 2

you must be high or something

AHAGH

Answer 3

well, it's hard to measure yourself... get someone else to do it.

and when you got o your doctor they should measure you... I don't think you are shrinking at your age...

Answer 4

You didn't shrink, most likely its just a difference of the way you measured your height.  

Answer 5

Could be what time you measured yourself...

you are shorter in the evening than you are in the morning because your spine is more compressed (becomes less when you sleep on it at night)

anyway, its normal to be 1-2 inches shorter in the evening then in the morning

Answer 6

Spirit M is right. If your using the same exact intrument and the same place in exactly the same way as before, and still your measurements are low, then it means you measure at different time. When a person gets up in the early morning, he is tallest then and shortest at night before sleeping. This is due to gravity.

So before sleepin do lil stretching and stuff, get up and check again.
