I lost 60+ pounds in about 6 months with only walking as my exercise. Just keep a weather eye on your diet, weigh and log everything faithfully, etc.0

I think it all depends on how many calories you are eating. Ive seen numerous success stories of people losing 75+ pounds without exercise.0

Still going strong
First weeks no walking and have build it up to now 70 minutes daily walking ( and even some jogging in it)0 -

i have knee and back problems but since i started walking it is getting stronger and stronger. The last time my knee protested is almost a month ago Lucky me. Of course all the weight loss helps.
I hope that this will help you too.0 -

Exercise is overrated. In fact too much exercise can be counterproductive, as your body demands extra calories for all that work. However, no matter how much you exercise if your nutrition is off you won't lose. Cyclists say "You can't outride a bad diet."0

i always heard exercise is for your heart, your diet is for your weight loss.0

Truth. I'm still "obese" (about 50 pounds to go). But my resting heart rate is 52bpm now. If I see a doctor I don't know and they take vitals I have to clue them in. Someone "my size" shouldn't have a heart rate that low, according to one doctor. (He was a rude fellow, so I dropped him like I drop slow cyclists...)0

I do alternate day fasting. Eat my tdee on one day and 500 the next, and repeat. I haven't been this weight since high school. I'm 42 now

If you want to lose weight, you don't need exercise. If you want to be healthy, you should both lose weight and exercise.0

I lost my first 30 lbs in three and a half months with walking as my main exercise (occasionally I'd turn on music and dance in the living room when I wasn't able to get out for a walk in the daylight). But accurate logging and maintaining a calorie deficit is what enabled me to lose weight. Exercise is for my health.0
