This would be better:
Seventeen years later, 150 pounds heavier and 5 ½ feet taller, I have become used to the American way of doing things, having lived the majority of my life in California and Washington.
Word may still tell you it's a fragment. Who knows why Word's grammar checker does what it does?! It's not a fragment.
If you have question about the changes I made, let me know.

17 years later, 150 pounds heavier and 5 ½ feet taller, I have gotten used the American way of things, living the majority of my life California and Seattle, Washington.
Does that make sense? I get a fragment line on Word.
Thank you for your help.
