    I love walking, guys! I walk 5 to 8 km (3 to 5 miles) a day. What about you?
    Btw, this habit is also extremely good for you: ua-cam.com/video/TmORMKTHuOs/v-deo.html&

    I am 84 and had a heart attack 25 years ago. I walk 90 miles a month and it drives away depression. I am in better health than I have ever been. I have 60 BPM pulse, 119 chloresterol. My doctor calls me his hero. You just cannot be unhappy watching the sunrise and listening to Aretha Franklin R_E_S_P_E_C_T. I love life and surround myself with fun people.

    I am 24 years old and currently over 18 stone. Last year my mental health hit rock bottom.. Last week I decided to ditch the antidepressants and get out walking on my own for 40-50 mins a day. Already I am feeling so much better and cried for the first time in years just at how much happier I am feeling (And possibly the side effects of not being on meds). I hope somebody reads this and makes the same decision I did- You can do it.

      I have been sedentary so long that walking up and down steps is a chore. I was trying to walk up and down five steps (seven times) even that makes me short of breath. I'm going to walk in place and then march in place and I'm believing there will be a vast improvement. I weigh almost 300lbs around 280-290lbs. I want to lose 1-2 lbs a week. I'll see how it goes.

    I go wallking every night for 40 minutes. My girlfriend of 4 years broke up with me yesterday and my heart is broken but I still pushed through my 40 minute walk tonight. I cried most of the way at first but I felt better after the walk. I hope walking helps the pain of my broken heart go away.
    Update: So it's been nearly a year since this post and I found out a few months ago I wasn't just broken up with. I was being cheated on for about 4 months. I thought she was it and was gonna marry this woman but I dodged a bullet, I guess. She would have cheated on me eventually. I am still walking every day and I am seeing a therapist because she really did a number on my self esteem. Thank you all for all your supportive comments and encouragement. I am 60 pounds down and I don't think I would have had the strength to carry on with this weight loss if she hadn't shattered my heart because I only started walking to help me cope with the sadness of the breakup. I suppose everything happens for a reason.

I walk every day. Look at the birds, the trees, the surroundings and breathe. I just enjoy walking. It's easy, free and cheap. 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️.

    I lost 90 pounds in about a year walking daily. When I started, I weighed over 500 lbs and could only manage walking about 5 minutes at a time. I'd get about 3000 steps. By the time I got to 90 lbs lost, my walking improved to around 8000 steps daily and could walk for about 45 minutes at a time.

    I have diagnosed PTSD from being in a war while in the military. For 10 years I lived a very unhealthy lifestyle.
    About two years ago I weighed 445 pounds. One day, something clicked in me and I realized I had enough. I went outside and went for a walk. I didn't do 30 minutes because I physically couldn't. But each day I went out and gradually increased how much I walked.
    Now, two years later, I have lost over 200 pounds and I am walking 2 hours every morning. I've changed my diet and I have a social life with friends and family.
    Walking not only changed my life, but it saved my life in ways no medication ever could.
    My advice to anyone who wants it: Start small and don't give up. Just walk around the block. Build yourself up to that first mile. And, before you know it, you will be doing 7, 8....15 miles every day. Just don't give up.

    I started walking at 377 lbs a year ago, doing a mile a day for a few months. I then increased my walks to 2-3 miles a day, throwing in one 6 mile walk and a couple 5 mile walks. I just recently started walking 3 miles a day and will keep it consistent for another couple months. I am now 306 lbs and my goal weight is 205-210 lbs. I do plan on going to the gym, but for now, walking has benefited me greatly.
    Update: I am now 248 lbs! The journey isn't over yet and I won't stop until I reach my goal.

    Me and to help prevent deep depression we could really lose our mind and hope and never return from that. So yes walking is very important for a healthy mind bodt and soul. May God grant us the will to be great Stewarts over all He's blessed us with. There ate so many people that would love to have legs to walk.God bless us all.

    I'm 80 years old. I play golf 3 days a week. I walk and push a golf cart when I play. According to the app that I use, I walk about 5-6 miles while playing golf. On the days that I don't play golf, I go to the local park and walk 5 miles. I used to be able to do it in less than 90 minutes, but lately I'm up to about 95 minutes. Must be getting old! Anyway, I feel better at 80 than I did when I first retired at 57. So glad that I am still physically able to walk. Strongly recommend it.

    Walking is definitely a part of my life. In 2014 when I started walking 2 miles a day I weighed 273 lbs. One year later with a combination of better diet and increased walking I went down to 165 lbs. It's now 2021 and I walk on average 9 miles a day 6 days a week and the weight is still off. While for a time I walked on a treadmill at the gym, I now walk outside and enjoy listening to music and enjoying the sunshine. It's something everyone can do, even if it's just a little.

But it is also possible to do it less often but longer distances. I did tours approx 2 times a month for at least 35 km. Ant ot still worked greatly on health. The effects are multiplied if you discover new beautiful places. Such tour has strength of any any anti depreßing medicine used. At least from positive symptpms. Funny thing is that you would get better even if your situation is not better. So happines need not to have rational basis other than walking.
