Question Posted Saturday September 8 2007, 1:32 pm
so will walking an hour a day and eating healthier and drinking water and only water help me lose weight like by doing that and not to mention walking around school and stuff will thathelp me lose weight pretty fast and how much weight do you think i could lose in 5 weeksof doing this
Just wanted to add though, that if you are going to put in the effort to work out every day (remember to take a rest day every week), why not go for some kind of exercise that will have a positive impact on your heart. If you could change the walking for an hour to, for example, jogging for 20- 30 minutes, it would not only help you lose weight, but you would reap more cardiovascular benefits. Thats because walking does not elevate your heart rate into the optimal training zone.
Just a suggestion. Of course any exercise is better than no exercise, and I hope you stick to your plan. Apart from the food groups advice, remember also that its best if you manage to eat many small meals every day. Eating a small balanced meal every 3-4 hours will help keep your metabolism going during the weight loss period.

Did you know that for people who drink a lot of soda and other sugary drinks that by giving them up entirely you can lose quite a bit of weight. I did that and lost probably 10 or 20 pounds in like two months.
Anyway, 5 weeks of doing this could probably help you lose up to 10 pounds as long as you stick to it.
Diet and excercise are all you need to lose weight. By diet I just mean eating healthier, I don't mean those crazy no-carb diets or things along those lines.
I wouldn't drink ONLY water though. Milk is really good for you too! Make sure you're eating foods from all the food groups too!
