Has anyone shrunk (height?) after a large weight loss?

 I gained height after I lost weight.  I went from 5'41/4" to 5'4 3/4"  at 62  go figure that one out.

I did drop down a shoe size.  Maybe you lost height because of the fat pads on the bottom of your feet getting smaller.

Have a great day.

I was the exact opposite, I'm now 1.25 inches taller than before I lost weight which makes me super happy since I'm really short.

If you had a lot of fat on the soles of your feet, sure---or you could have lost bone, which is bad. Myself, I "feel" taller, because I can get things off shelves that I couldn't before. But in my case, I'm pretty sure it's because I can stand a LOT closer to the cabinet now. (*grin*)
