Are you saying you are vertically challenged for weight proportion?

So I'm canceling the gym membership and from now on you'll find me at the playground hanging by my ankles from the monkeybars!

I'm tall----5'10"----but not double my waist measurement! I need to grow a few more inches in height, too. BUT---even my doc says I have "large bone structure" so maybe I don't need to grow as much as I think I do!!!!!

Repeat after me (5'10").....It's easier to hem pants than find them long enough!!!!! 6' is just too tall!!!!! (unless you're OK with living in men's clothes, that is.....)
