jogging vs. walking
ok i have a high metabolism so im naturally on the slim side and im tall but since i started working in a restaurant 8 months ago ive put on some pounds id like to lose and just tone up. i dont have much time to workout but if i were to walk briskly on my treadmill [maybe jog a little sometimes] 3-4ish times a week how would my results vary than if i were to run? because i really dont like running and plus im sooooo out of shape i get winded after 5 minutes. would brisk-walking still be good for me? at least until i can work my way up to runnin?

any kind of extra walking/jogging/running is great for you. Do it for atleast 45mins. - an hour 4 times a week. Or even more! You will see results, but probably not as fast as running. Good Luck!<3=D

Start with walking in a brisk fashion. This will warm you up for running later. Walking is really just to help you lose weight, while running will build muscle. Try walking for 30 min. twice a week for about a month and then try running 15 min. twice a week for a month/2 weeks (whatever makes you comfortable) and increase by 5 min. every 2 weeks.
