Answers:
This may have anything to do with the pain in your feet as the pains there could be anything from walking too far to simply stepping wrong. However, since you are 14, you should not be on a diet at all. You actually need a crap load of food to grow, and not getting enough will stop you from growing. While this crap load of food should be healthy food, you cannot limit yourself to only certain foods because you will be depleting your growing body of the vitamins, minerals and nutrients it needs to grow. So, stop dieting. And no one can predict how tall you will be but you will continue to grow until you are 16. Also, there is no scientific evidence that growing pains exist.
