My mind is also reeling at the idea of something fitting you both at ages 7 and 35. I'm roughly 5/3 as tall as I was then and weigh about four times as much. Do you have a pituitary gland?

Do you have a pituitary gland?

Not quite that extreme but I'm older than they are and still have some clothes from when I was in 7th grade.

It's more plausible that someone stopped growing around that grade.

The rest depends on lifestyle and metabolism
