Hey everyone,

My name is Ethan. I'm 18 years old, from Long Island, and I'm a college freshman new to the forums. I'm currently 5'4" and 175 pounds, and I'm not happy about it. I haven't gained any weight while coming to college, but unfortunately my self esteem has been lower than normal lately, and I think being overweight is a major cause. I hope to lose the fat and gain muscle. I love music - I play piano, drums, and guitar, and I love to follow baseball and hockey, but don't really play sports. I've been only semi-seriously trying to lose weight for a while now, but never got anywhere due to lack of motivation and time. I'm joining here to change that.
 
Welcome Ethan!

It's great that you haven't gained any weight since going to college ... more than most people can say!

I had a difficult time in college and was afraid to make the most of my experience there. I shut people out because I was afraid of failure and rejection, and it ruined my whole experience. Find some friends who will go to the university gym with you. The exercise and the socialization will help you on both levels!

Good luck to you, I hope you find what you need here! The sticky posts in each section are very helpful and informative.
