    How many pounds do you have to lose? If you have 40 lbs. to lose, I'd say 40 weeks would be good. That being said, I have 20 to lose (perhaps more), and I have been losing slower, so I'm on week 24 (172 days). Many people are here to maintain after weight loss, so that's ... forever.

    Oh, also, there are 7 days every week. I don't take days off, even if I do go over on some days.

    I started by walking 3 times a week for 30 minutes. After two weeks of trying, I was able to do this pretty well and I enjoyed it. It didn't feel like two much. So I started going for more walks and walking longer. I now walk most days and for 45-60 minutes and I'm loving it. It has boosted my weight loss, too.

    Exercise is for health and counting calories is for weight loss. Exercise is not essential for weight loss.
