You can eat fertilizer, get a lot of sun and drink lots of water.
Hey, it works for plants. ;)

How to Grow Taller
There isn't much you can do to grow taller, but these tips can't hurt.
Steps
Eat a well-balanced diet that is rich in calcium and iron. This can help promote growth if you are still young.
Take up yoga. Some people report that the stretching has helped them grow taller.
Stand up straight. Good posture can make you look taller.
Tips
Take time out to research foods that are rich in calcium and iron.
Warnings
Remember that you probably can't grow significantly taller. Try to be happy with your natural genetics and don't fight too hard!

Sorry but you can't MAKE yourself grow taller. But trust me I;m short myslf being short Has so many advantages. And about being sightly chubbt akk tiy can really do about that is excersise. You sound kinda like me and my parents alwasys tell me that you have an athletic build and the best way to look good with an althetic build is to be athletic.

Then how about this: My wife is 4'11", and is a little chubby. I could not have found a more pleasing combination had I ordered her from a catalogue. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and different people like different things.
You cannot override your genes, so don't torture yourself. Make the most of what you've got. It will float someone's boat, fer sure!

There's no way to make yourself taller, usually the girls who are really short now are really tall later on, I know cause I was shorter when I was like, 7 and now I'm 12 and as tall as my 17 year old sis

Honestly, that's something you can't control.
Eating healthy foods is a plus, it will help you lose weight and it might appear as though you are taller.
It also depends how old you are...maybe you haven't hit your growth spurt yet. That's a possibilty.
Short = beautiful ...don't listen to what other people say!

I'm the same way. I'm 16 and 4'10. I asked my doctor and he is sending me to a growth doctor. So ask your doctor about it. For the chubby issue do yoga or cut out your fast intake.

yOU CAN DO STRETCHING EXercises, play basketball (True!), swim. Always have an erect posture. Don't slouch. And Tallness isn't everything. Let them stoop down to you.
