I have no idea how old you are, but my father...Hi,<br /><br />I have no idea how old you are, but my father lost a significant amount of height in recent years (he's sixty), going from 6'3" to 6'1" to maybe even six foot even.<br /><br />With him, I think it was a combination of the arches in his feet falling and his spine compressing a bit. <br /><br />Four inches *is* a lot, though, especially if you aren't that old. Perhaps with you it is about insufficient bone density, and I do think you're right about nutrition. Do your feet seem to have changed? It may be that at your weight, especially if you've had jobs that required you to be on your feet all day, that your arches have fallen too.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10860246538349067232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650289478442133391.post-45422272075163108832012-04-13T18:44:30.138-07:002012-04-13T18:44:30.138-07:00I think some small amount of height loss is normal...I think some small amount of height loss is normal especially if you are getting into the middle aged years. I do worry about how immense mine is 4 and half inches is a LOT. I need to discuss this with my doctor when I see them. One friend suggested weight bearing exercise. I do some with cans over the last year, but my hump on my neck and back seems to be getting worse.Five Hundred Pound Peephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05862707335431442713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-650289478442133391.post-91929714508017463262012-04-13T12:06:28.273-07:002012-04-13T12:06:28.273-07:00Me too.

I've had bone scans done though and they are fine. ??Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10059766693894113845noreply@blogger.com
