seesinpinkandwhite wroteCongrats Oxyfemboi! That's great to hear you had such drastic success! A real inspiration! I bet your height combined with your new bigger place has made you feel quite small in a large world! Have you been weighing yourself as well?[/quote]
Yes, I do feel smaller and the world does feel a bit bigger. However, I attributed that to the much larger place and not to any shrinking. It is about forty feel longer from my new apartment to the elevators than from my old apartment to the elevators. There are at least two more of the smaller apartments (forty feet) -- and possible three (sixty feet) -- from this end of the hall to the elevators. The floor layout -- I once saw the blueprints of the two floors -- is different.] Since I have shrunk, I see (now) that I also need to take more steps (I counted them) to get to the elevators.
It's really hard to see that I've shrunk by looking in a mirror. It's a new bathroom and a new bathroom arrangement. It's not the same design as in my old apartment. I expected some differences -- the height a mirror is hung, for example, will not be exactly the same even when you try to hang them at the same height -- so I wasn't looking for signs of shrinking. There is a different size tile on the floor. Since the file specifies that you shrink to a "scale model" of yourself, it's really hard to see differences unless you're looking for them ... and I wasn't looking (then).
I have not been weighing myself. When I moved to my old apartment, I decided I really didn't need to keep track of my weight. A scale was one less thing to clutter up the floor. Now? I might think about buying one in a few months. I still think it serves no real purpose. A scale that gave me percent muscle and/or percent fat as well as weight ... well, maybe.

In case you missed my new goal, dude --
bold in this new word processor doesn't exactly stand out -- I intend to shrink to fifty-four inches (four feet six inches, which is dwarf size); I have intention of stopping at five feet zero. There was some talk about having someone to shrink to dwarf size, once I found that here was such a medical designation. "Dwarf" is less than or equal to four feet eight inches (fifty-six inches). When I make it, I plan to ask for some "funding" for a new wardrobe, since shoes and good clothes in that size are, apparently, difficult to find.
Don't worry, dude. I still have lots of height to trade. Better get working on getting
Enchanted Keyboard to work, though.
I also found -- by googling
short guys and
short dudes on Tumblr -- that there is such a thing as
heightism, which kind of boggles my mind. Apparently women like guys who are more or less the same size or taller than them. Really shorter guys seem to be automatically disqualified as mates which does seem to be some sort of prejudice.
A suggestion: I used ViVe's
Deep Clean to remove any obstacles that the
Shrinking-- Control Panel for your Height might encounter. I wanted the
Shrinking file to work as it had before. That might have made a difference.
