Looks like you are under-eating. In order to get your metabolism revved up, you need a minimum number of cals, just like there is a maximum.
Good calories are what's important. Obviously, simply increasing them with any old thing will result in a worse situation.
Good calories would include vegetables, fruits and healthy fats.
Because of your situation with school and not being able to cook very much, I recommend the "baggie method".
At the beginning of each week (you pick the day according to your schedule), you chop up a bunch of vegetables [think multi-colored: greens (broccoli, asparagus, green peppers), reds (red peppers), oranges (carrots), etc.], buy a big cheap jug of mixed nuts, and buy 5-6 apples.
Fill 5-6 baggies with chopped veggies, 5-6 baggies with 1/4 cup of the mixed nuts in each, and wash all the apples.
Now, when you get up and head off to school, you grab one bag of veggies, one bag of nuts and the apple. You "graze" on these throughout the day.
Already you've increased your healthy calories without having to cook.
