PhilosipherStoned Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 yeah I'm a glutton so that doesnt do it for me alone usually but walking a good 3-4 miles a day at least does go a long way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lasty Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Kudos, dude. If you count that as a baby step you can take it a step farther; having lost some weight should make more intense exercise easier. ;3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep at it! I walk about 10-13 miles a day and burn around 2800 to 3000 calories a day at work walking around and doing other stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doom Metal Alchemist Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 That's always been my method for weight loss. Usually it's been as a result of having jobs that require a lot of walking. First was when I was a newspaper carrier, currently I work in a warehouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
