Walking?

[CDailey]

Does walking really help you in any way? If combined with a diet, would walking/jogging help me shed some pounds?

Definitely - any form of physical activity will help you shed weight. Make sure you walk briskly, and for about an hour.

walking burns calories, of course. after my car accident i ballooned up to 215 in no time without even noticing. i said to myself "i aint gonna be fat". so i started walking atleast 60min every night on this ****ty nordictrack we have. I would just pop in a movie from netflix and walk while watching. when your thighs are too fat to run this works very well.

i dint change my diet too much, just avoided really bad stuff, and i dropped 10lbs in a month. cut the carbs and calories and you can really lose the weight faster. the trick is to not starve yourself. dont go so strictly on a diet that you wont be able to stick to it for over a week.

Also, if you drink soda, cut down or switch to water. Each soda is good for about 150-300 calories.

it worked for Jared. though he could have just gotten lypo that was payed for by subway in order to use him as advertisement to boost sales.

definately stay away from soda. i try to only drink water. it not only allows you to avoid calories, but it makes you feel much more healthy. whenever i drink pop i get diarhea.

try and stay away from fast food, junk food, candy, all that stuff. definatly stuff with a lot of sugar.

I quit drinking soda less than a week ago, and I've dropped 6 lbs.

have you read the fine print on those commercials for subway? It says that to be only 6 grams of fat it has to be like nothing but meat and bread.. no "condiments including cheese, mayonase, etc"

Well, simply put, if you want to lose weight, cardiovascular is the way to go. Running, in my opinion, is the best way, it's fun and it works fast, and yes combined with eating properly you can shed pounds faster than you thought possibly safe.

WAlking is also better cos you dont wear out your joints like running. Just make sure its a fast paced walk
