I've been walking on my treadmill for 1 hr a day, everyday at a rate of 3.4. I burn over 400 calories per day and I walk a little over 3 miles in one hour. This along with the diet that I am currently on has done well for me.

that's awesome... you shoudl join up with your forum mates in the Virtual Amazing Race challenge They're walking across america and could sure use your miles..

Way to go... for motivatig yourself to do that

Hello,

I lost the majority of my weight with walking 3-5 miles a day. I live in a wonderful pedestrian friendly city with lots of challenging hills so I never got bored. Walking is a wonderful exercise, great way to clear your head and I got to rediscover my city by walking through it vs driving within it.

Keep up the good work,

Awesome job Peaky and David! You guys are an inspiration...I'm hoping to be as much of a distance walker as you guys. I love walking at the trail around my local lake...it is so peaceful, really does a lot for the soul.

That is GREAT! You may see even better results by altering your routine a bit, such as adding some intensity. The idea is to surprise your body and not let it get used to your routine. This way, you burn more calories.

Cheers!

I am also using walking as my main source of exercise. I wish I had a prettier area to walk in than the pavement around my apt complex lol!!

Are there no parks nearby with a walking path?

Even the little hicktown I live in has one

Check around, and good luck

Great job on the walking !!!!
