I walk 7km a day on a treadmill Monday to Friday and that's 21miles a week.. and I eat 1200 calories a day..

my BMI is currently 27.4 and I'm still steadily losing 2-3kg per month.

I've lost 27lbs in 2 months by watching the calories and walking. Just over 2 months ago I found walking 10 miles in one go very hard. I can now walk 20 miles in 8-9hrs with no problems, other than being a bit tired at the end. I also walk around the block, which is half a mile and I do that several times a day. My 10+ mile walks are hikes in the countryside, carrying a rucksack. It doesn't take long to build up stamina for walking, but you do need to do a little every day and gradually add a little more distance. I find I have much more energy to walk now and really enjoy getting out into the countryside with all the fresh air. Plus, the great thing about walking.....it's doesn't cost anything I wish all the very best with your goal.....you can do it

3 miles a day is awsome.
I would strugle to find the time and stamina for that .
I lost about 12 kgs just by watching food and walking 100 yards at a time ( working. Up to a mile twice a day)
As they all say the weight loss is mainly in the diet. But the excersize is for fitness.
Good luck.

I have a fitbit and I've tried to get 15k steps a day since last week (about when Aug started). They say 10k steps walking is about 4 miles, so that makes it about 6 miles. If I keep it up, and some days it's hard to hit, that would be ~180 mile walking/running this month. I find walking fun. I usually listen to a podcast and do hour walks as it's a great way for me to catch up on radio shows I like, i.e. Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me!

What are you currently walking? I slowly built up to it. I just kept adding a bit of distance to each walk. It adds up. See below.

Nov - 65 miles

For four months I walked a minimum of 3 miles a day and I lost weight at a very steady pace! After about the 3rd month or so, I realized I was no longer losing and needed to challenge my body more, so I began a 5k training program. Sure enough, the pounds started shedding again!!

Hi,

I have already walked 80KMs (49.7 miles) so far this month and I aim to complete 100Kms by the end. I walk on average between 5KMs-10KMs a day, more if my legs can handle it (5-6 days a week, Sunday is usually my break and only walk for pleasure). Last week my total was 50KMs.

I believe you can walk a 100miles in one month if you be consisitent. However, I started slowly and with small goals until I got better after 3 weeks of walking.

To date my total since I started walking 6 months ago is 770 KMS....
