Its not what you eat, its how much you eat. If you can't control what you eat, you CAN control how much you eat. So start by putting less on your plate. If you're still hungry, you can go back and get more, but sometimes putting too much on our plates makes us think we need to eat it all. Also, tell your parents you want to try to eat healthier and ask if they can buy a few more healthy things for the house when they shop next. And drink lots of water. These are all little changes that can make a big difference ( I lost 75lbs like this, basically), but the most important thing for you to remember is that you are young. At 13 your body is still changing and growing. You may be a bit overweight right now, and in another year you could be 20lbs thinner, without doing anything! So try not to be to hard on yourself. Eat as healthy as possible and control your portions. And also, make sure you are buying clothes that fit you properly. Jeans that are too tight make your tummy spill out (muffintop) and push things around, making you look lumpier than you really are. Just make good decisions. You'll be fine.
