It is far better for people to hate you for doing the right thing than for people to love you for doing the wrong thing. Never ever forget that.

  I used to measure 5'2.5" but I seem to have lost a quarter-inch in recent years.  I know that long-term use
  of proton pump inhibitors (like Prilosec/omeprazole) can reduce bone density.  I guess I'm shrinking!  :hide:

^You should take a calcium supplement. I have reversed my osteopenia into a more acceptable level by taking Caltrate. Been taking it for 3 years now.

I am about 160cm short.

  I probably should.  I don't want to end up as a footstool.  :laugh:

They are pretty cheap. Especially so if you take one a day.

A centimetre I think. Not much. But I broke a rib shortly after my first scan and that scared me.

  Yikes.  I broke one in September 2015, but I fell really hard against the side of my bathtub. :pow:

Keep an eye on that. This could be a reason to see your doctor.
There is medication to make your bone material more dense, to slow the shrinking process. But, the same medication may work against you when you break a bone or need surgery done on your bones. Because it will stop bone growth.

Still, "growing" short rapidly can bring lots of nasty things. So, do keep an eye on yourself.

  Yes, I've heard of some of thsoe anti-osteoporosis meds actually causing fractures.  :zombiefuck:
  I will ask my doctor about this.  It's also possible, I suppose, that my spine is being
  pressed down by my excess weight, and that losing a chunk of blubber off my
  overloaded frame could help me to stand taller!  :viking:
