No not from that laugh

I've been 182cms high ever since I left school at 17 back in 1979.

I only just filled in some form a few weeks ago that asked for my height and I wrote 182cms as usual. 5ft 11
5 inches, never quite made 6ft.

I had a check up yesterday and was weighed and measured.

178cms yikes

I double checked twice at home, but the young lady was correct.

This has pushed me into the overweight BMI thing for the first time.

Getting old sucks, the rot is setting in frown

You're slightly taller in the mornings than the evenings; double check your height when you first get up if you haven't done so already. Might find the extra cm that way smile

I don't have 4cm to lo... oh, not that.

Yes, we do get smaller after a while. You're simply too wide for your height. biggrin

Does using a pull up bar help?
