How should I feel about this?

How should I feel about this?
how tall is your dad?
wish my mom did this
I’m all fucked up from malnutrition
at least I’m sort of tall
5'11"
seems like mom science, but you managed to end up the same height as your dad and not shorter despite having a womanlet mom
she might be on to something
Sounds like it worked out. According to the formulas doctors use to estimate growth you should have been 5'6"-7".
i literally ate almost nothing as a kid and through my teenage years.
And im 6'5 196cm both of my parents are above average height tho moms 168cm dad 183cm
Im not saying food is nkt important but most of it is genetics
>mom is 5'10"
>dad is 5'11
>I ended up being 6'2"
How the fuck did this end up happening?
That's not your dad
Obese all childhood and early adult years, still 6'3''. Cope harder
> Dad is 6'3"
> Brother is 6'4" (also has a massive dong)
> tfw 6'1"
probably better diet. were your parents growing up in a poor 3rd world shithole?
thats absolute broscience though
mom 5'2 all other women in family 5'2
dad 5'9.5 me 6'3
every other tall guy i know bar one has normal sized dad
>a model isn't accurate because outliers exist
6'2 is basically exactly what you'd expect from your parents heights.
>dad is 6'4"
>I'm also 6'4"
5'10 is pretty tall for a woman, dude
your dad is taller than avg, too.
that plus a good diet means you always had a good chance of being above 6
>be 6'2"
>my older sister is also 6'2" and my oldest sister is 6'3"
WHAT. THE. FUCK.
>dad is easy 6'1
>I fluctuate between 5'7 and 5'8.5
i mean... it kinda makes sense, every fat kid in my school would always be the tallest out of the class/school, i guess the next step for you is to lose weight and sort out your feelings with your mom instead of discussing it with a round table of autist
>tfw 6'5"
>dad is 6'
>mom is 6'2"
>sister is 5'11"
I think I lucked out because my grandfathers were 6'5" and 6'6".
Moreso the fact that your mother is significantly above average for a woman.
Can’t complain
lmao
and she still married his dad; he must have been quite a Chad
good for you user
>It's broscience that doctors use
Just stop thinking. You're not good at it.
>Dad 6'5"
>Mom 5'8"
>13yr old brother 6'5"
>Me 6'3"
REEEEEE. Why was I always super skinny as a kid... I wish my mother force fed me, I could be 6'7" super Chad right now.
How do you know how big your brother's penis is?
how do you not?
I don't have a brother that's how.
>dad is 6'0"
>mom is 5'10"
>little sister 5'8"
>little brother is 6'1"
>I'm 5'7"
Almost 20, and I'm just so confused about this, my grandpa is 6'4" too.
If she didn't do it, you might have been 5'6" or you might have ended up the same
No one can know
>both parents are 5'6
>be 6'3
How
shoulda ate your veggies user
>Mother 5'6"
>Father 6'1"
>Elder sister 5'5"
>I'm at 6'4"
gotem.
I did tho, but I was always a healthy weight growing up, and very active in sports like wrestling, track, and football. But my brother wasn't, and was obese growing up. Maybe there's a science to this...
>mom 5’5
>dad 5’11.5
>brother 5’10
>I’m 6’0
Honestly though height doesn’t mean jack shit above 5’7 and below 6’3
You are really complaining about being 6’3? What’s has this board done.
I heard that if your parents are simliar in heigh, the offspring is usually taller, but if theres a decent difference in height, offspring is somewhere imbetween the difference
6'2 and it feels awesome, laddie boi.
I'm 181cm & 19
Dad is 187 cm
Mom is 163 cm
Any hope bros?
>Dads 6'3
>brother 6'1
>other brother is 6'0
>mfw 5'8 and a cunt hair
>then again moms like 5'4
I bet your dad's dad is 6'4 or your mom's dad is 6'4
I like being 6'3", it's probably peak height for aesthetics and for just general attractiveness. Sometimes I just like to imagine what it would be like as a 6'7"+ mass monster though.
>Dad 5'8
>Mum 5'7
>I'm 6 foot
Makes sense
you can get thin past 25 years old, but can't get taller, feel good
My 5'9" and 5'4" parents did this and I ended up 6'3". Lost the weight over a single summer by fasting.
Sometimes that doesn’t work. I have 3 brothers. All three brothers are overweight but Im not and we all range from 5’8” to 5’10” not super tall but average for this area of the country but the problem is the second youngest brother. He’s been overweight since childhood. He eats a lot but somehow he still only about 5’4” at 17.
Constant eating Hasn’t helped him, what can I do? How can I get at least another 2 inches on him. 5’6” is manageable but I fear 5’4” will just make his life hard.
Lose fat and sleep
Eating healthy and sporting
I gained 3 inches after 17 to 23
I just want to be normal I don't care about the rest :'(
>Mom 5’8
>Dad 5’6
>I’m 6’1
Jesus fucking Christ I dodged a bullet.
Thanks to your mom
Random genetics. Some people have to be taller than their parents some have to be shorter, other wise there would be no tall people. That said 5'10 is tall for a woman.
t. 5'11 with a 6'2 dad.
You are children of adultery
>my """""""""""dad"""""""""""
There actually are several non-genetic factors at play, it's just generally speaking the height of parents are a good predictor.
yes but when his kids are born midgets he will be cursing his fathers name
Unironic cuck dad
t. geneticist
Yeah I did environmal biology course as an undergrad. There are countless factors that determine your height. Developmental upbringing and environment are the most important ones, which include nutrition, sleep, physical exercise as well as having a cheating dog of a mother
She had good intentions. Are you a framelet?
>tfw all my cousins are 6'2
>had shitty sleep and even shittier diet all throughout my childhood
>end up 5'6
YOUNG ANONS PLEASE SLEEP AND EAT WELL
Two of my friends had mothers that gave them extra food so that they would grow more and be bigger and stronger then the other kids. One of them was shocked when she found out that my mom didnt do that to me.
>Tfw no Amazon mom
>YOUNG ANONS PLEASE SLEEP AND EAT WELL
Don't listen to him, we need more recruits in the manlet pit, the last escape attempt has decimated our ranks.
I'm not that close with your brother. Yet.
19 year old fatass here, should I be on a diet? I don’t want to lose out on potential height gains. Some people say dieting will stop growth, some say being obese will make you shorter.
Idk if making kids obese actually has them grow taller. I doubt it and it probably just causes other problems. But the opposite is true, malnutrition does stunt your growth.
6'4" here with 5'8" dad 5'5" mom
Grew 4 or 5 inches after 18, wasn't really keeping track. I was the latest of bloomers desu. Young anons eat and sleep as much as you can, there is always hope. God bless.
They have the same nose
your mom saved your ass m8.
Both me and my brother are taller than my mom and dad. Nowadays comparing our diet I can say we had good nutrition with lots of meat
My mom is 5'8" and my dad was 5'7" I lucked out at 6'4" despite my grandparents on my dads side being 5'0" finlanders. Now my wife is 5'9" and both my kids are off the charts for their ages, my son especially. He was 24" long and 12.2 pounds at birth. Year old today weighing about 30 pounds and 33 inches tall.
My parents fed me complete garbage and I ended up 5 11 almost 6
Imagine if they cared
It depends on the kind of food you ate. If it was healthy shit in abundance, it's just mom science and didn't fuck you up badly.
If it was empty calories with low nutritional value, it might actually have stunted your growth, and leg growth is heavily correlated with proper nutrition while in puberty.
Pack it up boys dna came back a match
>mom 5'1
>dad 5'6
>am 5'8 but got shitty sleep and never ate enough when i was younger
Just imagine if i was healthier when i was younger. I'm 18 now, maybe there is still hope
There is hope my grandpa grew 4 inches from 18 to 21. From 5’11 to 6’3 and he has it documented from his time in the army and when he was in college. Eat healthy, workout and get plenty of sleep.
I like to imagine the tall guy in the back of the pic is actually his father
Haha I was about to say that
>6,4
>Dad (currently lives in Russia) 6,5
>mother is 5,7
>mom is around 5'7"
>dad is 5'10"
>I am a clean 6'
Can't complain I guess I got optimal height
Thanks for the advice eldernon
>dad 5'9
>mom 5'10.5
>me 6'0
>bro 6'1
bro caught the balding genes tho. I have no receding hairline whatsoever so i'd say i won
>mom 5'7
>dad5'7.5 (very insecure about this wears lifts, boots, etc...)
>me 5'11
>my brothers 5'10-6'2
All my uncles on my mother's side are like 6'4,6'5. My mom told me my great grandfather was like 5ft and he married a 6ft giantess because he wanted his kids to be tall, thank god for him.
>dad 6'
>mom 5'9
>me 5'7
what did I do to deserve this?
Your mom is like 6' taller than the average woman and your dad is like 1'' taller than the average man. The average of these is 3.5, which is almost exactly how much taller you are than the average man
>2 older brothers, always watched their weight and had a limited diet
>I ate like a fucking pig, obese as fuck as a teenager
>they are 5'10 I'm 6'2
Fucking manlets, who's laughing now
i'm studying sciences rn, hoping to get into the genetics field.
How are the employment prospects looking in your field?
She's a hambeast now, user. Literal textbook case of "now I can get fat".
My dad was an Infantryman in the Marines when they met. He's 65 now and gotten a bit fatter but every few years since I've been able to remember he goes on a health kick, sheds the weight down to 10% BF just before summer and looks like he did about 20 years ago. I've been trying to get him to maintain it but I think back home mom is sabotaging him. His strength has never diminished though, he deadlifted the whole entertainment center (TV and all) just to move it across the room last time I was home.
>5'4 mom
>5'7.5 dad
>5'9 me
>everybody else in my family except for my grandma is 6'0+ (not exaggerating either)
7" peepee so idc #yeet
what do you wish you'd eaten more?
And what is your current height?
She should have done the opposite. I practiced Intermittent Fasting (IF) from 7 to 17 and I'm pretty sure I grew an extra few inches as a result of the growth hormone boost from fasting 16 hours a day.
Obesity is wrong, but underfeeding developing children is child abuse.
A lot of gradeschool pals of mine were lean and had skinny-boy abs, but when I hit my growth spurts and am 6'2, they are capped at 5'4.
I have shit beard genes compared to them though
>pic is me started lifting 3 months ago and am pushing 170lbs roast me
>mom is around 165cm
>father was 182cm in his days
>I'm 187cm
it's obvious he's my father tho, so I think more sugar in our diets makes us grow taller. All the new generations are always taller. Maybe my mom had a bit stunted growth for whatever reason, because she also looks 10 years younger and I'm not just saying that. Parents' height is not a good indicator.
>5'1 mom
>5'5 dad
>5'7
>obese most of childhood
hmm
Idk how to break the news to you..
I was obese growing up and managed to be 6'4 and my brother was the pinnacle of hungry skeleton and is 5'11
