Will walking 2 miles everyday help me lose weight?

...

traceya87	i think you will tone up more than you will "loose weight" ... if you want to help loose weight than don't eat after 6:30pm... it will help.

Josh	Yup, it'll help a lot. Like the others have said, you'll need to watch your calories too. I'd recommend a good calorie counter... sparkpeople.com has a nice one. You type in your age/height/weight etc and it'll make a custom calorie plan for you.. you then enter EVERYTHING you eat every day and you'll get any idea of how many calories you are eating vs how many you should be eating. It's all free too :) By counting my calories and doing some moderate exercise (mainly walking) I've lost 50lbs since the first of this year! :)

Brian P	Tremendously. Running is even better, Like a slow jog. Not extreme running/jogging, just a slow well paced jog.

Purple Rayne	Absolutely!.....but make sure your eating the right foods also. Good luck!

sch-wicky	i think yes but besides walking you have to eat healthy meals too...so try to eat as much vegetables as you can..and fruits too..and try not to eat fat meals..and sugar..and than you'll lose weight!:)good luck:)

Lisa D	You'll have a lot of benefits from walking and yes, will help you lose weight if you keep your caloric intake the same as before and dont reduce your other activities. If you're thinking you might want to, DO IT. You'll enjoy results no matter what.

[[i<3 pop rox and coke]]	yea just do 30 mns exercise and u will lose weight

Aaron	come on here, common sense. dont ask that. thanks for these two points. and yes, you run a lot, ok baby.

summerlove32	Yes indeed! It will make an amazing impact on your body weight. Good luck, and if you start, keep it up, don't stop! =] Hope I could help!

tabatagraham	sure it will wlaking is great exercise try doing it after dinner and burn off what youve eaten

MrFlibble	can't hurt. send me a postcard when you reach China

outdoorsy.type.	i walk about that every day . and it keeps the weight down. and you wont HATE exercising because there is no pain really. but it wont be like taking huge chunks of weight out just by walking some other cardio would help to. good luck losing weight.

cauliflower	Yes, with 2 criteria: 1) it is not part of the walking you do regularily 2) you walk briskly especially swinging your arms

mzahra1	you'll really need to walk at a fast pace, you'll want to get your heart rate up, a FAST walk or a slow jog might be best

curiousgirl2	Yes! I have been doing that for a month now . I have been watching the amounts I eat and what I eat and I have lost 16 lbs so far! good luck to you!

FullOfQuestion	gradually pick up the paste. you will lose the weight but be patient :)

lindakb24	YES! But your diet can ruin all that work if you don't eat right.

shawnsinotte	Definitely! I walked every night after dinner, and lost 17 lbs. Of course a sensible diet goes along with exercise for the best results. Good luck:)

Mariana S	yes yes yes! hahah but the trick is that you eat good and drink alot of water!! and watch you will see results in like one week maybe not how your jeans fit but in how you feel and then in the secend week you will see chages in your cloths!! trust! hope that helps toots!

sandy j	I trained for a marathon for 5 months..it did tone me but I didn't loose weight. Yes keep an eye on your diet.

*~Katie~*	absolutley but only for a little while , your body will hit a peak and will not e able to loose anymore weight, i reccomend walking a mile first and then working your way up to 2 miles slowly.

two_kee_kees	Help is the key word. Yes it will help, but unless you diet, then it probably won't do much. Make sure to eat sensibly. Do that AND walk, and you're on your way to a healthier you.

Flaming Tresses	Yes, but you will have to modify your diet as well and drink lots of water.

Whatup34	yup running is even better but walking is alright

HearKat	Yes, provided that your caloric intake is the same or lower than you typically consume.

whome?	it'll only help if you also change your eating habits. cuz if you exercise (doesnt matter what) and you eat poorly, it'll basically balance out. you'll probably just maintain your current weight.

John's Secret Identity™	As long as you don't "reward" yourself with bad food afterward, yes. People who lose weight just through dieting are at greater risk of still having "visceral" fat - fat that's in among the organs - and that puts you at risk for heart disease and other fat-associated ailments even if you look thin.

xt286_12mhz	only if you reduce what you eat at the same time.

bublegumlvr3	Maybe if you walk 2 miles a day but eat alot it wont help you lose weight but if you control your diet it might

JenH-RN	yes, if u also watch ur calories

planetZ.	any amount of exercise will help you lose or regulate your weight, but it must be combined with a calories consious meal plan... excercising burns a certain amount of cals, and if you don't eat those cals back, you end up with more cals burned than consumed (adding in your basal cal count) and you lose weight. i'd recommend calories watching on: http://www.fitday.com/
