I've seen no one backing up this claim with evidence, so I'll just make this for the sake of retards.

Study 1

Study 2

Study 1: "The children restricted their calorie intake for one to two years, which led to weight loss, slowed height growth, and in some cases delayed puberty. After receiving nutritional and psychiatric counseling and returning to adequate calorie intake, their growth and development resumed."

Study 2: "The study found that during weight reduction involving a calorie-restricted but balanced diet, obese preadolescents experienced a significant decrease in their height growth velocity compared with before dieting. This suggests that even mildly restrictive diets can slow linear growth in children undergoing weight loss"

In short, don't starve; don't go into a calorie deficit during puberty; fat is temporary, height is forever.

(I'm gonna starve though cause idc :lul:)
