It will do a lot....provided you are also watching your diet. I used to walk 2 miles a day (along with doing WW) and I lost about 20 lbs and toned up! It was great and I really enjoyed it.

I think you'll see results, your legs and but will get toned up. But you have to walk fast.

It worked for me before my wedding - I just wish I could get motivated to do it again Chat Icon

I'm bad with estimating distance - if you walk 45 minutes 5-6x a week, what would that add up to mile wise?

Well I can tell you I feel better....WW is working for me just slower than the last time I was on it

I love walking. You should get a pedometer to see how much your walking. I walk twice a day most days, 4miles at lunch and 5 miles after work. Four miles takes me about an hour and five miles is a little over an hour. I started walking after work in October and lost 6 pounds w/o watching my diet. Then about a month and 1/2 ago we started walking at lunch time. I have no idea if I lost anymore, but I'm sure I did. I really can't say enough good things about walking. It helps physically and mentally becase I have a walking buddy and we get to talk about anything and everything.

They say you should try to walk atleast 10,000 steps a day. Somedays I walk over 20,000. I love my pedometer!!! Chat Icon Chat Icon
