I power walk on my treadmill for an hour. My weight loss attention is on my abs. So do you think I will lose belly fat by walking or maybe lose waist inches?

yes walking will help to loose fat around the stomach area. Its is very important that you remember to breath properly in through nose and out (some say through nose others say through mouth).
Another important point is tomake sure you are holding your back straight and your abdomin in tight. Actually if you do this at all time it will help you to strengthen your stomach muscles.
Don't give up!!! The stomach area for both men and women is one of the last places that fat is burned. For instance women will first loose fat around the chest, arms, and upper body, then in the butt, thighs, and stomach.
So to help even out you make want to work in a weight lifting program for your upper body, No rush though you'll know when its time for you to kick it up another knotch.
the key is not to give up because if you notice that your face looks slimmer or other people notice your looking 'different" but they can't put they're finger on it, that means your headed in the right direction.
Also be sure your taking vitamins and drinking lots of water and watch what you're eating.
good luck!
Awesome job of working and wanting to better yourself to the next level!

Does Walking Burn Belly Fat

I found the book to be very informative and easy to read.
I've lost 17 pounds in 12 days, I'm just concerned that I'm losing too much weight, too quickly. I will admit I haven't followed the guide exactly. I'm not sticking perfectly to the listed foods and meal plans (but mostly) and doing very little exercise, but the weight keeps flying off.
It clearly works and if I'd followed it exactly I think it would scare the living daylights out of me because of the amount that I'd lose. So thanks again for the information. I've never purchased anything like this before because they are usually full of trash, but 3WD has been a pleasant surprise.
Get started today!

Cardio exercises burn weight all over the body. Since power walking is a cardio exercise, yes, it will burn belly fat and help you to loose inches. You might also burn fat else where as well. Even though you're exercising you might still want to do some toning. If you walk AND do crunches, etc. it might speed up the process of toning and loosing inches. Good Luck♥

Yes, because walking is "toning" the belly. The belly fat that seems to jiggle or feel loose is un-toned muscle. Picking up your legs high or swinging your arms high will help you - that's Power Walking. If walking is the only exercise you are doing that's a good thing to work up to...eventually you can work up to more as your body gets used to the new physical exertion.

When I read about peoples problems losing fat it reminds me of the years I spent bouncing from diet to diet without experiencing any real results until I discovered Dianas miracle cure (find it on google). It made a huge difference to my life because it was so simple and the results were almost instant. it is still working to this day. I simply had to share it with you because it is very different and you wont regret it. Just go google it and you will see what I mean. Take care all and never give up.

power walking can help with losing weight and draining the carbs and stuff from your system but it is best to do things like sit-ups that focus on that area as power walking can just put stress on your knee's,but a well balanced diet and a normal walk will help you stay fit and lose a bit of weight but you need to focus on the area of concern and using your legs isn't where you are focusing on,it's your stomach.so I suggest working on that area and it will be a lot quiker, but also make sure you are doing something that reduces the build up of fat but nothing that stress your body

Yes. Walking and especially power walking is the best exercise you can get. Power walking uses your hips and stomach muscles. To be sure follow up with some stomach exercises. I do only 20 a night it takes less than 5 minutes, but I do notice when i have not done them. keep stepping.

Yep because it's cardo....anything cardo will make you loose weight. When you power walk just remember to keep your back straight and you tummy muscles tight. You'll loose the weight...also try to remember to keep your tummy muscles even during the day. Within a couple months you'll see the difference.
Just keep up the good work!!! Good Luck! (I am sooo very glad to see someone on this site loosing weight the healthy way)
