Hello.
First of all don't feel depressed. I know you probably hear this allll the time but I can safely say from how you describe you sound just fine to me. :]
The thing with diets is that it can be very hard to stick to them but once you get into the routine it becomes second nature. I don't want to recommend a whole routine for you because my routine works for me but it may not be good for you. I think the best thing you can do is try to join a gym (if they will allow you to join since most are awkward about allowing minors to join). If they do though you should ask them for advice on what kind of exercise to do as well as a good diet routine you can stick to.
For starters, one way to go about it is to eat 3 meals a day. This is important. Not eating is not good for you at all and will have a worse effect on your body. Generally it's not about eating less it's about eating healthy. So for example, in the morning have a nutricious breakfast. A cerial that's high in fibre is always a very good option (I have 2 weetabix every morning). Use low fat milk instead of full fat milk if you want (but you don't have to) and insteadof using sweetener cut up a banana into the cerial and a few strawberries. As a drink have whatever you want but avoid something fizzy - even better have a fruity instead (a mixed fruit shake).
Have 3 meals but try make them as healthy as you can and during the course of the day avoid chocolate and fizzy drinks and all that junk. If you need something sweet havesome fruit (keep a bag of sweet grapes in your room to nibble on whenever you feel the urge for a snack). If you really must have chocolate then get some jaffa cakes (they are chocolate but are also very low in fat). Avoid fizzy drinks that contain caffine so stick tothings like lemonade and such. All these little things will make a big difference. Limit yourself but doit within reason and don't go too far too quickly. Diets take time and patience. If you rush yourself you'll get ahead of youerself and just end up getting yourself depressed. It's hard at this kind of time too because of the summer when everyone is out showing off their figures but don't let how you look stop you. Show off how you look - it'll be the last time they see you that way. :] I hate how I am which is why I'm on a diet (lots of personal reasons why but I won't get into them here) but I take things in my stride and don't let it get to me. I know I'll eventually make it and so can you. Just believe in yourself. As for your motabolism, there are herbal tablets you can take which help with motabolism BUT before you even consider taking these please MAKE SURE you speak to your family doctor first to make sure you can take them safely. That is VERY important because as I said before, last thing you want to do while trying to look better is to end up causing your body more harm.
Good luck though. You can do it just believe in yourself. If you need any more advice at all on this just give me a shout. We're both pretty much on the same track. :]
