I don't understand. I was measured to be about 5'9.75 by the doctors. My older brother who is measured at 5'10" was about the same height as me just about 3 months ago. We used to both look about the exact same height just 3 months ago and now when I came back from college he seems noticeably taller than me, like about an inch or over. I grew to about his height about a year ago and now I am shorter than him it seems. He is 24 and a half and I am 20 so I highly doubt he could of grown in 3 months.
The only thing that could of contributed to me shrinking in height would be the fact that I did lots of heavy lifting recently (I have lifted for many years but not so seriously, since I had access to an excellent gym for the first time since transferring to this university), I did lots of walking (I recently transferred to a large public university and my classes are sometimes up to 20 minutes away, took a walking class, plus I take walks sometimes because I took easy classes this semester and have lots of time on my hands) and I stopped sleeping with a pillow in between my legs. This may of shrunk my spine I guess.
Other than that I can't think of any other way that I would shrink. I am not obsessed with height, but this has really annoyed me and kept me for a few hours last night. I am going to refrain from lifting weights for a month and I will begin to sleep with a pillow in between my legs in the night and see what happens.
Thoughts? Has this ever happened to you? any suggestions?
