Is there anyone in here that actually successfully did LL alone and not had direct family call them out on it?  Im not sure Ive heard a single case of this.

It seems some get away with it from friends, but family is much more difficult.

If you tried to pass it off and failed that would be super helpful to hear as well.

The only way you'll fool someone close to you is if you're young and you don't see them for a long time, maybe two years.  After that they might believe that you grew while you were away.

I see my folks about once or twice per year.  Even for smaller amounts like 5CM?  Not gonna happen?  Im wondering what they would even think considering theres no way they know about the procedure.

Can put it down to lifestyle change and unexpected growth spurt.

I plan on getting into a considerable good shape pre surgery and limit my socialising amongst friends, then hit it hard during recovery. Then they’ll be like, not only did you get taller but you’re also bigger and stronger.

I hid it.

But I rarely see my family + I wore lifts before and don’t now + we wore shoes inside + didn’t have a dad to compare my height to, only women

It’s possible

Yeah women in the family have no idea because they're shorter and already below your eye level.  My mom is a full half foot below my height, theres no way she will notice.  Its men who you are now getting even with or surpassing in eye height where it gets hard to hide.  My dad is 5 foot 9 so all of a sudden ill be his height or even a bit taller.

Theres an explanation I have, something medical, as an excuse.  Just dont know if it will be believable enough.  Id prefer to just not have any questions and need to pull that out of the bag lol.  If nobody says anything that would be great.

I don’t think there’s any believable medics conditional that would cause you to grow taller. Best you can do is gaslight and hope they don’t notice or say anything

My mom noticed my new height. I told her that I have a better posture and have been stretching and doing yoga. My mom has a big mouth and was not going to tell her about LL. I did not want all the family know about it. I am glad I lied to her or everyone would of known about it

lmfao gaslighting is always an option.  My sister has a huge mouth thats the person in particular id never in a million years tell.

Not going to go into details but I had an injury and very recently had surgery to fix it.  This surgery does actually add some height but not 2 inches.  Could possibly be used as an excuse.

Tip: people don't like to be gaslit.

[lessthanavg8300]

I guess what I'm saying is as soon as they have validation and know exactly what happened, thats when they can run their mouth.  If they dont have a specific story to tell, it makes it much harder to spread gossip, because they dont know what to tell other people.  If people hear "x seems taller" its like oh ok, yeah I guess so.  That is odd.  But if people hear "x had LL" then thats like pandoras box has just been opened.  LL is not something someone would spread unless you confirmed it because its not a thing in peoples vocabulary and a bold thing to claim without confirmation.

But I agree that if you're especially past 2 inches taller its going to be hard to pass off and create any kind of excuse for and you might piss some people off by lying.

Hello!
It is my case.
I live abroad from my family and see them not more than twice a year.
On february i made my first leg, and i told them that i broke my femur falling from stairs. As the operation was so hard for me, i needed to go live with some relatives some time.
On July i told them i needed to do a second chirgury to arrange the leg. I did my second leg.
When i finished my LL (still with crutches), one aunt noticed i was bigger. I laughed and told her: May be is you who are shrinking? 
I still can not walk correctly, i need crutches, so i don't know if they will notice when i will work normally.
By the way, i did 8.5 cm. So yes, it is possible. Nobody knows. Just this forum and my doctor.
