as far as food goes, it is not the amount you eat, its what you eat and how. if you decide to lose weight, stay away from junk food, too much red meat, fried foods etc, and have nutritious, healthy meals with vegetables, fruits, white meat, wholegrain etc instead. there are plenty of nutrition websites with healthy recipes or check out books in your local library.
also, if you decide to lose weight, some exercise will help. don't join a gym, you don't need to. go running, not far at first, but stick at a slow steady pace and go as far as you can manage. don't stop when the first pain comes, running through it is easier than stopping and starting again. do situps, lunges, pressups if you can, just active things that you can do at home for little or no money.
finally, DON'T crash diet. it is the most unhealthy thing you can do to lose weight and you put it all back on once you stop dieting.
