What is your height and weight. Additionally your waist and hip measurement.
Weight loss is VERY simple. Calorie deficit. DO NOT LET THE PSEUDO-SCIENCE FROM WEIGHTLOSS MAGAZINES/WOMEN's BLOGS/YOUTUBE FOOL YOU. Calorie deficit. Doesn't matter if you eat carbs (sugars)/fats/protein/. Calorie deficit. Calorie deficit is eating less calories than your body is absorbing and consuming for ATP and heat.
Weight loss takes place with a lifestyle change. Most people increase or begin an exercise regimen (more on this later) and additionally reduce calorie intake. It is possible to lose weight just by reducing calories but you will find it takes much longer.
in my opinion, calorie counting is only for those with very poor self-control, no clue how many calories they eat/drink, or just lack body awareness. FEW people can eat until they are pleasantly satisfied and get away with not counting calories. What I am saying is to eat until you are just no longer hungry and no more. Often times, people just get bored and eat mindlessly, then they have a soda/juice/sweet tea along side that mindless meal..
I think it would be a good idea to know how many calories you are usually eating. There are websites and smartphone applications that can help track calories you have eaten. Take a couple days from a week and count up all the calories you have eaten each day. If you want to reduce weight, then simply eat less of what you have logged.
At the age of 13 it is too bad to be worrying about weight but unfortunately there is an epidemic going around... And it's called childhood obesity (not that adults aren't just as obese either)
Exercise has to be at a reasonable intensity to be effective. You cannot simply walk/jog around to get an effective cardiovascular exercise from it. Additionally, to do cardio a gym membership is a waste of money. If you haven't seriously worked out before in your life, I highly recommend looking up "TARGET HEART RATE".
You're still young so your body is continuing to change and grow. Your weight as it stands now will fluctuate until you reach adulthood. Please don't try diets or anything like that since you need the proper amount of nutrients for you to develop a healthy body later on. Just make sure you're eating enough fruits, green vegetables and whole grain pasta and bread, and cut down on processed and sugary foods as well as anything containing trans-fat.
You can also get a gym membership and work on your cardio, though just basic walking/jogging should do the trick.
