    Teen Growth
    Hi my name is olivia.

    I just turned sixteen and I'm desperate to grow around 3 inches. Do you think this is possible?

    My father is 6 foot and my mum is 5 foot seven so technically my average height should be around 174.5. I was an early bloomer, I got my period when I was 13. Does this make a difference?

    My sister is 5 foot 9 but she got her period later than me..

    Last year I used to go on fad diets and I became really skinny. I have recently been eating healthier foods and having a more balanced diet. I have grown an inch this year, but I really want some inspiration to feel positive!!

    Please help...

    You are 16, you're not finished growing yet. Give nature some time.

    Even if you got your period at thirteen?
    I know I am growing, I have grown an inch since February.
    But do you think it is wishful thinking, to be able to grow three inches

    NO, I don't think its wishful thinking. When you got your period has nothing to do with it. I got mine at 9, and continued to grow until I was 18.

    Modeling agencies will pick at you... they will always find something. My baby sister is 21. She is an absolutely stunning girl. She's 5'9 and 110, and they told her she needed to lose weight. Modeling standards are so high, and stupid. If you want to be in the public eye, then go for acting.
