You have to pass through "overweight" to get to "obese" and you're not even close to that yet. A couple more inches ...

I seem to have lost an inch, too.

Damn gravity.

Hardly overweight, but the loss of 2" could be more significant--possible sign of osteoporosis. Might be good to get a bone density scan just in case.

You might never die, but you should extrapolate to when you expect your height to reach zero.

I think my dad lost about 4 inches, maxed out 5'8" or so, ended up 5'4" or so. His brother likewise. I may be a bit dismayed, but not surprised.

Your Mom didn't loose height. Too bad you didn't get those genes. I'm loosing height right along with you :-( I bet nobody likes it, but somehow feels worse when we're already short.

On the bright side, just imagine how much more spacious airplane seats will feel - when it is safe to travel again....

Gee, I may be 5’4” by then.

The thing about airplane seats is, you don't get much more legroom. The change is mostly in your spine.
