Sometimes I look back to this diary & It feels like a dream. I can’t believe I really went from 5’4 to around 5’11. I’ve ran into so many people, people my old height & just watch how hard life is for them. I cry inside wishing I could reach into their soul & offer a solution & tell them I know exactly how they feel. Ive gotten into arguments with many girls defending short guys as they try to ridicule them in my presence.

I am so glad I did this surgery & am even more glad I left a diary for everyone to refer to. My only regret is that I did not create a concise step by step program for everyone to follow. I have 1000’s of messages in my inbox so I am sorry to everyone I was not able to get back to, I hope you all hit your goals. I was having a convo today with my brother & he suggested I make an actual “course” on how to max out on your length goals safely. If I followed through with this, would you be interested in paying for it? If so, how much would it be worth to you? This will help me figure out how much time to spend on it, although I do plan on making it as simple as possible

Thanks, love you all

Hey @MyEvolution thanks for the diary. 2 questions:

(1) Did you do arms? If not how do you feel about the proportion? Any comments?

(2) If someone could rebreak at 5'8 to get to 5'10 would you recommend it to them? Is the whole downtime of the process x2 worth it?

absolutely no one will pay for your course, thanks. More than enough info on the forum and on the wider internet.

Does the quadrilateral, lengthen by 1mm / 0.75mm per day (femur/tibia)? or only 0.75 mm / 0.5 mm per day?

Funny thing I went out on a date With a girl last night super hot, I casually asked her what’s the shortest guy you would go for and her reply was “5’11 if he checks ll the boxes cause i’m 5’5 & like to wear heels. “
“You’re like what, 6’0? “
Im like
“Yaaaaa……”

They literally don't know the difference atp and just say 6'0 for the number.  You should've told her you were 5'8 or something and see her reaction

MyEvolution, what was your reach before AL and how long is it now?

How much you lengthened your legs in total and what is your average daily height you stand at currently?

This was an incredible story, but it does make me wonder if the reason we never got MyEv's athleticism video is because he's debilitated.

Clearly it was worth it for him in any case, but it'd be nice to have full disclosure to help people make an informed decision.

Yeah, I agree. it's a bit suspicious to have no closure statement, and he did have many complications. I think whatever people on diaries might claim to do, we should just stick to the safe guidelines of 7 + 5 cm. Even 6 + 4cm isn't too bad to get the best results. I'd rather be an inch shorter and not have to suffer from leg pain my whole life.
