Walking has been shown to be the best. I personally lost over 130 lbs in the last year and a half. I started out by walking one mile each day and worked my way up to 5 miles every morning.

Walking is the best by far and cheapest unless you have access to a swimming pool.  Walking is free, just be sure to get a really good pair of shoes.  Put a walkman on and go for it!

yes sport is always good  and  it helps in both  inc your metabolism  and   directly burning calories \nbut  it is  useless if  you dont wantch the calories  you take and the type of food you eat\nif you want a  personal advice i will recomend  walking with a  higher than  normal speed (not jogging) coz it makes you move   ur thighs and stomach  even  more than running if you can  imagin what  i mean its called the speedy walk\ni recommend speedy  walk for 60 minutes ( at the begging if you couldnt  there is no problem try the best  u can  and ur time will get better by time) 5 times  a weak  and dont forget  that watching your diet  drinking allot of  water and taking more  fibers minerals and  vitamins (espitially  vitamine c) is very important  for losing weight and maintaing  a  good one

Walking. Most people only utilize fat as an energy source at a particular level of exercise. The average person won't burn fat by going out and running as fast as they can. Brisk walking 30-40 mins a day is the best (and probably cheapest) way to burn fat. There are other health benefits to walking. If you can't walk try swimming. And I would suggest speaking to your physician before starting to exercise.

I think the treadmill, walking is really good for you. I suppose if you do it alot and for a long time, running could get hard on your knees, but walking shouldn't. \n\nThe best model would be one that folds up for storage if you dont have much room for one. Sears or walmart have them, but Sears would be a much better quality of treadmill.

It is definitely useful for mental health and physical health also.\n\nI prefer the early mornings to take my walks because it clears my mind,refreshes my thoughts and puts things for the day into perspective. It is my time alone to think,reflect and just enjoy the beauty of the day. It is quiet,peaceful and relaxing.

Because exercise IS good for your metabolic rate and your digestion. Its a good thing you have to go to the loo right after eating, it means all the blood is flowing around your system and this has been stimulated from the exercise. You have nothing to worry about - you are right on track!

Exercise!\n\nExercise does not mean going on the gym and enrolling some classes.  Walking around, dancing with the music, or just doing household chores are also good and profitable exercises.\n\nAny physical movement is an exercise, so instead of using your car going to the nearby grocery, why don't you take a walk, it would be helpful for your heart and body, as well as a savings on your pocket.\n\nRemember, a good execise is not necessarily streneous, it is better to be simple but prolonged or that would require endurance.  Endurance exercises are those that helps the heart and burns more calories.\n\nA good healthful diet is also relevant.  Be sure to eat a variety of foods everyday increasing on the veggies and fruits.  Roughage from fruits and vegetables would enable you to have a sustained blood sugar level thus you would feel full most of the time.  This in effect would limit or lessen your total calorie intake and finally a leaner body.\n\nHope i hjave helped.

Walking works very well for me. It's easy to do, and it utilizes all body parts. Another fun thing to do is have some friends over, and put some upbeat music on, and all of you exercise together. It's not only fun, but healthy. Believe it or not, I lost 17 lbs. in 2 weeks by just doing the Cha Cha Slide with my daughters every day, a few years ago. It was really fun, and I didn't think about how boring and exhausting exercise could be.
