> While I can't bring myself to goto the gym due to self esteem issue and not knowing what I'd even do their, I have started to walk more and move around as part of being a college student. Iv managed to drop a few pounds but I'm still overweight by more than 100 lbs. You don't need to go to the gym to work out. Walking is great, you can do a lot with a very small weight set, and you can do calisthenics. None are hard to learn, there's a bunch of websites and such. If funds and space aren't too much of an issue: stationary bikes, rowing machines, weight sets, etc. can be found pretty easily and are nice. Look for second-hand if funds are an issue. Gym people do tend to be pretty great by the way. Not universally of course, but I'm sure you'd be able to find some who would welcome you and you likely wouldn't have a bad experience. You also can just go and watch or ask and it'll be really easy to find some machines you can do. Really worst case you can look up how to use different machines or equipment. Since you're in college, a lot of schools will have classes that will teach you to work out in any way that you find interesting too. They won't expect you to already know anything or be in shape, you'll fit in fine.
