Safe weight loss is 1-2 lbs/week.  If you're very diligent, you can easily lose the stone (14 lbs) in 3 months; probably less

At 16 yrs old, you aren't fully developed, so you have to very careful to make sure you get enough nutrients in your diet.  It's all about eating healthy and getting plenty of the right type of exercise.
