Walking to lose weight
Hi Ryan,
walking (or any other form of aerobic activity that you enjoy) is an important part of any weight loss program. Here is what the Mayo Clinic has to say on that subject: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/walking/AN01773
Wishing you well.

Hello Ryan. I agree with the above posts in that walking, or any other aerobically-based exercise (e.g. cycling, swimming) can be instrumental in losing weight and reducing body fat. As with any ‘program,’ the degree with which this program will help in weight loss depends on several factors (some personal, and some programmatic). For example, personal – the individual’s current, pre-program fitness level, and programmatic – the ‘intensity’ of the walking program.
I hope that this helps.
