You are attempting to loose 25% of your body weight in two weeks. That is completely unrealistic and if you attempt it by going on a ridiculous crash diet you will only make yourself feel physically ill as your body struggles to cope with the sudden deprivation and mentally negative as you do not achieve anywhere near your goal.

I know this isn't what you want to hear, but healthy weight loss is slow and steady weight loss. That's not to say that you can't start before Christmas, just that you can't expect to be a completely different person in only two weeks. Even fad diets like South Beach and Atkins won't promise you this, and they aren't good for you at all, especially if you are still going through puperty, as you need a balanced diet including all the food groups to ensure healthy development.

Instead reduce your food intake by having smaller portions, eat healthier foods and snacks, cut out junk food and soda drinks and exercise. Don't cut out everything you enjoy or you won't stick to it, but have things in moderation. This type of plan won't get you results as quickly as some other diets, but it is considerably better for your health and long term wellbeing. If you loose the weight sensibly by moderating your general behaviour and eating patterns rather then sticking to something very strict for a short period of time and then giving up you are also much more likely to keep the weight off. All the best.
