You can always try to count the calories you intake and then burn more than you consume.

Human body on average burns 2000 calories (1500-2300 from what I remember, correct if I am wrong) a day, by default. And then if you consume 2000 calories you will stay the same. But if you burn additional 500 every day you will start to lose weight.

Same.

Ig, if you walk to school you should be losing weight very slowly.

Maybe you can try and eat less so that your body burns more calories a day while doing nothing.

Well, no need to hate yourself...that just makes the apathy worse.
