i understand where you are coming from-- there is nothing worse than have super skinny people saying that they are fat.
Good ways to stop eating junk food is to get it out of the house, also you should find alternitives, like get frozen fruit icepops instead of really sugary ones, or get baked potatoe chips instead of ones with a lot of salt, drink diet soda instead of regular, eat cornflakes for breakfast instead of frosted flakes. You can find alternatives for almost anything and they really help!

First of all try to keep in mind that NO ONE is entirely happy with their bodies, even supermodels, if people were, there would be no plastic surgery. Secondly, we are far more critical of our own bodies than anyone else. We know our bodies and look more than others, as we can see 'flaws'. However, please bear in mind that as we are all doing this, we have little time to be that observant of everyone else.
Now on to body management, genetically you probably have inherited your shape from one or both parents, not a huge amount you can do about that one, but there are ways of helping.
With diet, try to eat 6-8 small but nourishing meals a day, taking things from the main food groups and including 5 portions of fruit and veg each day, preferably fresh. The more frequent, smaller meals stimulate the metabolism so you burn calories quicker.
Drink a glass of fresh water before each meal, as the fluid absorbs some of the hunger and aids digestion. It is also good for clearing the system and refreshing the skin.
Exercise, you need to do aerobic and anaerobic to get your system working correctly. A mix of track, swimming, yoga and weights should do the job.
Next thing, are you happy? There are a lot of people that eat as they are feeling low, and being unhappy about your shape is, oddly, one of biggest causes of overeating. Another reason for too much can be boredom, if you find that you have time on your hands when you start to feel the hunger pangs, try to distract yourself, or have something like a stick of celery as it has negative calories. Try not to chew gum on an empty stomach though, as chewing stimulates stomach acid, and without anything to work on, it can harm the lining of your stomach. Leave the gum until after you have eaten.
Lastly, always make sure you have a treat every day, whether it is a small square of chocolate, just the one, or something else that you really like, but a very small portion. It gives you something to look forward to and you should enjoy it more if it is a treat.
Remember though, that diet and exercise is no substitute for a positive image of yourself, people have descended into dietary hell for a lesser reason than yours, so please, approach this for the right reasons, for your health and wellbeing, not because you want to be like everyone else. Your individuality is what makes you special, there is no one else like you and that's the way it should be.
Best of luck to you.

whatever you do DO NOT try to just stop eating all together. what you need to do is drink LOTS of water and try to exercise more. i know that being only 13 with school and everything exercising is hard, and you might not have time or you might not want your parents to find out you want to diet. i went through the same thing. what you should try doing is instead of eating three big meals, you should eat very small meals more frequently. or if that is too hard when you start getting a craving for something when your not hungry but you know you'll end up eating anyway try chewing some sugarfree gum or popping a mint. they REALLY help you to forget about your craving. also try to occupy yourself while at home, because most people eat because they are bored and NOT because they are hungry. i hope this helps!
