My first 6 months was just walking. Like you I was too heavy for anything else and way out of shape. I started slow and finally was up to 8-10 miles a day. Joined the Y 3 months and shed 83 pounds over ten months. Most of it from walking but now I do much more. Ran my first 5k Saturday. Trust me you can do it believe in yourself. Even if no one else will.
Good job on the 5K! Walking definitely helps!0 -
For sure! The Running ROom in Canada has a "Learn to Walk" programme. They teach youproper stretching, walking strategies,e tc.. You find walking buddies, too.
I'm quite heavy and I do the elliptical trainer as it is low impact. That might help, too.0 -

By eating healthy, and walking (30-60min a night, every night) will this work with weightloss?
So I was just wondering, if I spend the next 4 months focusing on eating healthy, and clean, and incorperating dailey walking (I also do a manual labour job) will this help me lose some weight?
Everything of my weightloss /except/ the last ten pounds has been from walking. (the last ten pounds was me adding a couple minutes of running during my walk.0
