Ok first of all, you should go into this thinking "I want to become healthier and more active" not "I want to lose fat"... the latter sounds and feels a lot better because you are doing it to make yourself well!
You should just go outside and take walks (push yourself though, don't just stroll) because you need to build up cardio/endurance first. To be active you have to be... well, active. That involves moving a lot, which you can't really do just in your room, unless you have a lot of exercising equipment. Do you have a treadmill or stationary bike or even a jump rope? Those provide an easy way to exercise. Sit ups and such are more along the lines of strength training, it builds muscle, not really get rid of fat.
Check out step aerobics, it's pretty fun and doesn't take up much space.

you can try joining an exercise club like aerobics/boxercise although thats hard when u feel fat
i dont think there is much point in doing special abs crunches as ulitmately you need to lose the fat before the muscle definition can show
the other thing is giving up fizzy drinks or swapping to diet. people dont realise how much sugar/calories is in fizzy drinks. also cut down portion size we all pile out plates up more than we need to
thing is you are so young now if you change your lifestyle habits you can change your life otherwise you will always be known as the overweight girl and thats awful
its really tough but also is tough to be the biggest of all of your friends. you can definitely lose weight just keep trying.its easy to give up, as weight loss takes time but keep with it. you can do it!
