Walking is a great form of exercise.. i agree with the others watch your intake move your but and you will lose weight.. IMHO any exercise you feel confortable enough to do on a daily basis has to benefit you in the long run.. in the past i have lost weight with just walking alone.. but i get bored easily so now i mix it up.. walking.. elliptical. swimming.. aerobics.. mini tramp.. daily exercise makes me feel great.. its lifts my mood and helps me sleep.. if i had the choice of 3 days of 30-45 minutes walking and 7 of 15-20.. i would choose the 7.. becuase daily exercise keeps me happy..
Others might choose the 3 .. becuase that is what they prefer..
on average however i walk 3-5 days a week atm becuase its winter and an average of 60 kilometers a month
