I've been fat for as long as I could remember, and I'm starting to lose weight now. They say females stop growing at 18. I'm 17 and I'm around 5'1 or 5'2. Did my weight stop me from growing? Can I grow taller if I lose weight?

or:No. Your height depends mostly on genetics even if people in your family are tall, there are resesive genes. And I'm not completely sure but I think nutrition is required to help your body grow.

or:You still grow up to your 20's,if u take the right proteins n nutrients u will see better changes,And don't diet since it will stop your growth and try doing pull ups if possible since its seen effective in increasing height,Your weight doesn't really affect the height and once you are slim u feel more light and taller...The height usually depends on your parents height,u will be somewhere between them and maintain a good weight and i am sure you will be up in no time,Have a great Day
