I read this book about walking to lose weight. I walk all the time and never seem to lose any. Can someone help me lose some weight here? I need to drop about 50 pounds to really be happy with myself.

I've tried many diets and couldn't make anything work. Since having my first child, I've been carrying around an extra 30 pounds. This diet just made sense and showed me that everything I was doing before was wrong and a waste of my time.
The plan was so refreshing and so simple to follow. I did everything plan said and lost 23 pounds in the first three weeks. I'm now starting the diet again to lose 7 more pounds. This plan has changed my life.
Get started today!

Yes.
Did you know that (Maybe this can motivates you more);
1-5 minutes walk
Causes your heartbeat increase from 70 to 100 times per minute, your blood flows more faster and your muscle starts to feel a little hot. If you continue walking more than 5 minutes, your body will burn 5 calories per minute instead of just 1 calorie in a time you relax.
6-10 minutes walk
Your heartbeat increase from 100 to 140 times per minute. The burnt calories increase become 6 calories per minute and the blood pressure got a little bit higher. This will make more bloods and oxygens flow especially to move the muscle.

It should go together with healthy diet. Eat healthy, watch your food! Drink water a lot. And be patience. It needs time and effort!

The only thing it did for me was improve my cardiovascular. When I was first trying to lose weight I used to alternate walking and jogging on a treadmill. Walking alone is considered a moderate form of exercise and to me only gives minimal results. My suggestion is to incorporate weights with aerobics.

yes you can lose weight just walking, it should be for at least 30 mins a day, even if you have to break it up into 10 min segments. but,... and there is always a but you have to cut back on your caloric intake, eat less but more gratifiying fulling foods, high in fiber and drink plenty of WATER not just fluids but WATER. 64 oz's per day.

If you are serious about losing weight, the calories
in the food you eat should be less than the
energy you use. You will have to increase your
metabolic rate now, and plan your diet carefully.
Formulate your own weight loss plan and you will
lose weight faster. More details available at

yes. but you need to walk at a very brisk pace (fast) and keep your arms moving! i guess you could call this power walking. but you would need to do this very frequently and stay on a good diet. it is probably almost impossible to lose weight just by walking if you are not watching what you eat. always remember this, "burn more than you take in"

You can lose weight pretty fast by "walking fast" for a quarter mile, then jogging a quarter mile.
Do this, alternating speed for 3 to 5 miles per day... you'll drop fast!

I think you need to walk at least 2-3 hours a day and keep a relatively low diet to acheive some weight lost.
The key is still output vs input.
