None: At 62" and 115lbs you are very close to your ideal weight. Exercising can redistribute your weight between fat and muscle and you can appear more athletic without losing any weight. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Hmmmmmmmm: Well, probably about five, to answer your question. BUT, here's the thing, WHY do you want to hide this from your family? What are you most worried about? Would they disapprove? Do you feel as if you are significantly overweight? (You're not) Some families are not up for honest open discussions, but you could TRY? Counseling might help?

Not recommended: Your BMI is 21 (right in the middle of the range). You're totally NORMAL for your height. We've had discussions with one of our daughters who got all the way down to 107. She's 5' 3". She just HAD to get down. She didn't look good at all, just way too thin, her periods stopped, constant hunger, pale, her friends started asking her what was going on. She is now holding at 116. Please reconsider.
