Have you talked to your parents about this? Their insurance may cover a dietician. If not, your regular doctor can help set up a healthy eating plan for you.
There are also many good programs out there that can give you support like Weight Watchers.
Try and stay active in sports and taking walks, things like that. It really helps!

I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL EXCEPT I'M UNDER WEIGHT IT'S LIKE WHATEVER I DO I CAN'T GAIN WEIGHT. I AM 13 AND 5'2 AND I'M A FEMALE. IT'S SO WEIRD HOW WE ARE SO DIFFERENT. I WEIGH ONLY 90 LBS. WHY DON'T YOU BECOME A CITIZEN OF THE US THEN TRY TO GET INSURANCE
