Get outside every day - for at least 10 minutes or so - your body needs the sunlight.
Walk - if you can - your body needs the exercise.
Agreed, it is impossible to be depressed if you're active (*edit* Disclaimer: Active means doing something you enjoy, while exercising). Medical fact this is, exercise causes the body to release chemicals that make you happy.
Also when you start exercising you'll start seeing that your body will tone up more, which trust me I know it's a massive happiness boost when you fit in to something that you'd grown out of. Your self image will get a boost...
Go out for a run for half an hour a day, if you don't have the time or live in a cruddy neighbourhood there are always other options, find local jogging groups etc. go to a local national park.
Seeing a doctor is always vital when you aren't feeling too good, physically or mentally. Counsellors are well trained and they are there to help YOU. Find a counsellor who you get along with, the younger they are the better!
But in the meantime start running, start forcing yourself to eat three consistent meals a day. Have your big meal for breakfast or lunch and only have something small for dinner.
I don't know much else to say, I've dealt with depression too, so you know, my PM box is always open too... I won't judge you, I've been down that road too, I've thought the worst thoughts imaginable... So drop me a PM, you can say anything, there's nothing I haven't heard before. (Except a good polka)
P.s.
I just thought of another thing. Each day do something creative and new. For me I make a weird noise and do a little dance. Then I know I'm unique and special because nobody else has done what I just did in that place.
