For context…. I’m 4ft 11. And it’s rubbish! Here is why -
- Food! I can only eat about 1500-1700 a day. I exercise a lot, I try to be healthy but a couple of biscuits and boom, I’m a fatty!
- Food no.2..eating out.. If I have a main meal then a pudding it can be more than my daily allowance.
- Gaining weight! One tiny bit of weight and I’m a fatty. And it’s far easier to gain then loose!
- Alcohol - I just can’t handle it. I’m a ‘cheap date’ but who wants to be drunk on one glass of wine!!
- Cloths - they just don’t fit! At 14 I got a sewing machine so I could take up all my jeans but often it’s not just the length. The curves and shape just doesn’t fit!
- Cloths no.2 - short person, little feet! I used to be a size 3, now most size 3 are too big! And 2.5 are less common.
- Respect.Im an adult, a full on grown up but I constantly feel younger than I am because often feel like people treat me that way. I’m sure there is a statistic about career success and hight/earnings (tall people do better)
- Running! A 5k for me is a LOT longer than a 5k for someone with longer legs!!
- Supermarkets - why put things so high up!!
- People thinking I’m ‘cute’ if I was me, but taller, I wouldn’t be cute.
- concerts - I can’t see. Any group of people and I’m stuck looking at people’s backs.
- nose in armpits on busy public transport.
Im sure there are more!!
I also suspect being taller than average is equally rubbish - public transport seats, cloths not long enough etc (but could eat soooo much food!!)
