So I guess we shouldn't trust google either !</p> <p>Oh well, I'm glad we only use the metric system here lol. Let's say I'm not tall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107360 Sat, 21 Nov 2009 12:09:25 +0000 yublocka 107360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think my tape measures might have both, but I haven't used one to measure my height for a long time!</p> <p>I agree with you re pounds and stone Anne. I have no idea what my kg weight converts to. I don't even know how many pounds are in a stone. The metric system is just so much easier. 10 of everything </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107346 Sat, 21 Nov 2009 05:06:56 +0000 bella 107346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just wanted to correct Frenchie that 161 cm actually equally 5'3'' </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107313 Sat, 21 Nov 2009 02:22:15 +0000 anne 107313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Queenie, my tape measures have always had both too. A height chart mightn't though.</p> <p>Tam you have always looked 5ft 10 to me too! </p> <p>It is interesting that you don't perhaps have a sense of height in feet and inches. I do, because my parents still used it colloquially, despite years of metrication. So I knew my Mum was 5ft 4 and my Dad 6ft.</p> <p>I however do not at all have that sense with pounds or (even less) stones. When it comes to thinking about weight I have to convert all the time to kg which is what I think in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107249 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 17:10:54 +0000 Angie 107249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You’ve always looked 5ft 10 to me, Tam!

I always knew I was 175cm, but never bothered re-checking my conversion skills. Anyway its cool to know I'm 5"10 (if I round up half an inch) after all these years of thinking I was 5"8.</p> <p>Angie I am hanging in there, thank you for asking. I have some difficult decisions and weeks ahead I think, and am finding it difficult to know where to start. Blah! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107155 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 02:30:17 +0000 Angie 107155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*chuckle* </p> <p>How are you, Tam? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107091 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 17:49:33 +0000 Patience 107091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>But didn't you always know your correct height in cm? Big grin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107089 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 17:47:38 +0000 Tanya 107089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>He he that is funny! I always do my own calculations, I guess it is the scientist in me, I do not trust any converters </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107041 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:57:08 +0000 Queen Mum 107041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL- too funny!</p> <p>now, here in the US we have tape measures with both inches and cm marked on them. I guess that isn't the case in the resf of the world? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107040 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:50:28 +0000 Frenchie 107040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This thread is actually pretty usefull since I was wondering how to convert cm into inches and feet because of the unfamous "petite clothing" (which some people insist I should try on while other don't because I'm "not that short"). No website seems to give the same height in cm for 5'3" or 5'3", some even said it meant "160cm".<br /> So 161 = 5'2" (well, 2,8etc)<br /> Thanks a lot ^_^</p> <p>And... OMG! You are so tall !Lucky you ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107033 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:18:13 +0000 Laura 107033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you are tall and getting taller! Just through simple mathematics. And here I thought you were going to have some magical wardrobe advice or a new pair of boots to recommend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-magically-grow-2-inches#post-107020 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 07:55:21 +0000 yublocka 107020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stupid little fact I thought I'd share with you all: until 2 weeks ago I always thought I was 5"7-5"8 because when I plugged my height into online converters in cm it converts to 5.8 feet. </p> <p>However since there are 12 inches to the foot, that means I'm 9.5 inches above 5 foot. Fancy being so wrong all this time!!! </p>
