It's really easy to change your diet. Just buy healthy things only from the store, instead of chips and sodas. As long as your house has only healthy foods, you will limit your access to unhealthy foods. Out of sight, out of mind. Also, make sure that your schedule does not allow for snack brakes at mcdonalds and at the vending machine.
Enjoy exercising, and be sure to make time for it.I don't know how your schedule is, but I know that you probably amazingly busy. Remember, being healthy is just as important as having a good career. I found that making seperate times for homework and exercise and keeping the schedule works. If you stick to the schedule for 4 weeks, treat yourself to one candy bar of your choice. I use snickers. If you cheat, the clock resets and it's another 4 weeks to candy bar. Giving yourself positive reinforcement can really help. Eventually, you won't care about the candy bar. There is a hump that unhealthy people have to get over. Mine was about 2 and a half months. The trick is making sure they pass as quickly as possible. Don't give yourself time to worry about how that cheesburger would taste. As soon as you're over the hump, it becomes much easier to exercise and to eat better. You'll feel better and have more energy.
Yes, the veggies mentioned are high fiber foods that, according to my doc, can clear out your system better than anything. Carrots, 100% wheat cereal, celary, and others can be really good at purging some of the bad stuff out.
