See...
There is quite a height difference.
But I think I know why I've stayed so small, both in width and height.
Most everything I eat is fun-size, junior size or kids' size.
I like Happy Meals from McDonalds, eating from the kid's menu at restaurants, and if there is a smaller option, I pretty much always get it.
For example, Jared and I went to Chipotle yesterday and the nice man let me order off the kid's menu. I got a small quesadilla, side of rice, side of beans, a small bag of chips and a chocolate milk box. It was the PERFECT size for me!
Another example is from a few months ago. We had a Moe's Southwest Grill across the road from our apartment complex and we went there a lot (it's DELICIOUS!!). Jared would get a regular size burrito, but I always got the Jr. option of the same burrito :) Even then, I would save a part of the burrito for lunch the other day.
Third example is the kid's menu from Cracker Barrel. On days I didn't want to cook, we'd order and get take out from Cracker Barrel. Everything is in such large proportions, I again went to the kid's menu. The last time we did this, I couldn't even finish my meal! I had to put some of it in the fridge for the next day.
So yes, that must be the reason why I am so small! But, I am just fine eating smaller proportions. I don't get super full and I always have room for dessert a few minutes after eating dinner :)
Yet, I dream of only being a little shorter than my family :)
(Obviously, they are bending their knees to reach my level)
