find daily calorie intake calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours - it optimizes your metabolism)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have protein (lean meat, legumes etc) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min (ideally 45min because the first 20-30min body burns carbs and only then starts burning fat), light weight training (more muscle=faster metabolism)
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, pasta etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.
ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)
when you crave certain foods it doesnt mean your body needs exactly that food - all it means is that your body needs a certain nutrient.
plus you can get rid of any food cravings/addiction in 3 days.

i was addicted. make urself like something else. for me it was diet green tea. whenever i wanted chocolate, i drank that. when i do eat chocolate i make sure its small individually wrapped dark chocolate.
but ur young so why so obsessed with ur weight? a guy would rather a girl he could eat chocolate n have fun with (it increases serotin- better mood, hello?) than a skinny girl in a bad mood.
good luck though

By ackowledging the problem; confronting it. And only allowing yourself a piece or two a week as part of your total weekly calorie allowance.
