I am a sensible, reasonably intelligent student, and I will never give any factual advice without research - no guesswork here.

i'm a pretty healthy weight for my age, 126 for a 16/f; though, i really hate certain parts of my body. around my hips and the tops of my legs i have some buldge i'm really uncomfortable about.
although i was raised doing low key activities, as i got into highschool i've been trying to get involved in physical activities like sports and whatnot. i don't belong to a sport regulary so it's hard for me to work out.
i wouldn't be resorting to this if i could go to a gym and whatnot.
lately i've been subjecting myself to anorexic habits out of hate for my body and jealousy to my more attractive peers.
my problem is that thanks to medication for ADHD, i can handle not eating during the day, but when it wears off in the evening and during weekends when i don't take it i can tend to binge. which is really like a sucky thing to happen if i'm going through the stress of dieting. i wanna know how to control this and balance it out.
also, i do run a ocuple times a week and do workouts on my stairs.
skdfj;askljf anyway, any tips to healthy dieting that will give me quick results? hopefully i can get some good answers based off fasting and not regular eating.

I'm 17 and I am around the same weight, and also have weight around my hips and the top of my legs. There are some exercises which can specifically target those areas if you want to tone them up, just have a little look around on the internet.
Yes, it is good that you've realised your behavior has changed, and it's also good that you realise this is not a healthy attitude towards food and exercise. It seems to be that when you're around your peers, you're more aware of your body than at the weekends, and this added to your medication routine could have an impact. It's important to have a good role model to aspire to who has a balanced and healthy life, rather than being jealous of people at school, as this will only knock your confidence. Fibre packed foods like the ones mentioned below will definitely help you feel fuller for longer, things such as oatmeal, porridge/bran, wholemeal bread, nuts and seeds etc. are good for this and make an excellent start to the day.
