Answers:

exercise your head off. In the beginning you can expect to lose 5 pounds, but in reality, 1-2 pounds a week is healthy and normal. People who eat breakfast lose a third more weight than those who don't.
Give up the carbs or at least go low on them. Eat whole grain breads, rice and pastas, skip potatoes and eat only 1/2 cup or one slice of bread three times a day.

Eat mostly fresh or frozen vegetables of all colors.
Eat lean meat like chicken or fish.
Eat fish twice a week such as salmon.
Add some nuts and seeds to your diet a couple of times a week.
Eat little fat or oils.
Eat low calorie, low carb food with high nutrition.
Drink low-fat or skim milk, yogurt, or cottage cheese
Do not eat within two hours of going to bed.
Drink 8 glasses or more of water a day.
No soda. No foods with sugar or high fructose corn syrup in the first five ingredients on the ingredients list. Skip the junk and subsitute with healthy food.
Watch your portion size.
Go on the net and check out healthy diets at the cdc for your age group.
Exercise at least 30 minutes a day. The whole country is losing weight by walking every day fast. Use music or a friend to make it fun and walk new places
Find exercise you enjoy. Stretch first to prevent injury. Have some fun.

You can lose a lot of weight by school. Don't starve. Eat 3 good, normal meals with normal portion sizes a day with two snacks. Take a multivitamin.

Good luck and good health to you. If you get time, drop me a line on how it is going. There are great sites for free on the net. Look around and do it right. You will look good and feel good for life.
