Losing an inch I didn't want to lose!

First visit with the patient coordinator today... all went well, except she actually patted the top of my hair down and now I'm officially shorter by an inch!  So much for being 5'3".  I'm 5'2" after the 'pat-down', and wowzie, that inch loss sure spiked my BMI.  UGH.  Feeling kinda' sickly over it in fact, since it makes my BMI the highest it's ever been.

All the more reason to be excited about finally getting this show on the road!

If we could count hair as part of our height to lower our BMI, I'd have a Snooki bump every day.

Yep, I was suprised too when I discovered I wasn't 5 feet tall but 4' 11.5" Somehow as I aged and gained weight I shrunk.

 i lost height when my son passed me up when he was in middle school....  when he got taller than me, i measured him to see where he was...  when he measured up at 5'8", my eyebrows were raised because i had been 5'8" since i was 11 years old....  seems i had lost height to 5' 6 3/4".... which really FUBAR'd  my BMI....

 They stole half an inch off my height at my first weigh in! I was pissed but it made me fat enough for surgery..... I still like to pretend to be 5'5

Same here and I am too young to say osteoporosis or something like that! First my height, then my boobs . .  . what's next?!! Then again, I'll give those up to no longer be in the 500s and soon the 400s.

I guess there is a cost for everything. :o)
