It is hard to determine exactly how much weight you will lose. You only burn between 50-100 calories walking a mile on average, depending on your current weight and rate of walking.

To lose weight you need to also count calories. 3500 calories accounts to about 1 pound of fat. So if you walk this mile and cut about 500 (3500 a week) calories a day you theoretically will lose 1 pound per week. This is different for every person of course and you would need to see a nutritionist to get an exact answer.

The best way to lose weight is a combination of diet and exercise as anyone will tell you. Start by walking a mile then try to go to 2 miles a day and so on. Increase your workout difficulty to keep your body from getting used to the same routine to get maximum exercise benefits and reach your goal faster.

After walking 15 minutes once - nothing. After walking 15 minutes every day for a week or more - entirely dependent on your diet. The amount of calories in the foods that are available to us today is so high, that unless you control your intake you really can't shed weight solely by exercising. At a guesstimate 15 minutes of walking would burn maybe 1/4 of the calories in a mid-size muffin.

How much weight can a person lose in a half mile walk?

Walking a half mile is a great "little boost," but you're not going to lose any weight. Your weight, height, gender, exercise level and caloric intake are huge factors. If you walk a half mile to Dairy Queen...I mean, come on...no weight loss. If you factor in a half a mile a day with proper diet and (additional exercise) you will lose weight....slowly. Good luck.

Would you lose more weight walking or running a mile?

1) one mile is too short to have any important weight loss effect regardless what you do. 2) calorie use running vs walking a set distance is pretty much the same. Running uses more calories per time, but you do the distance faster. Walking use less calories per time, but doing the distance takes longer, so it comes out about even.


If you walk 25 minutes 4 times per week how much weight can you lose?

How much weight you might lose depends on your current weight, your degree of fitness, your body composition, and where you are walking (flat ground or incline) as well as how far you are walking and how fast you are walking. Walking to lose weight is mild cardio exercise and very effective for weight loss when done correctly. Unlike running, it is easier on your body and it is sustainable long term. To learn how to do it correctly, see the page link, further down this page listed under Related Question.


Can walking a mile help lose weight?

If you don't walk at all now, then yes, you will lose weight, by walking half a mile each day, assuming you do not increase you calorie intake. But you won't lose much. Walking half a mile at a speed of three miles an hour (that's a 20-minute mile), a 200-pound person will burn about 65 calories. So, if you walk every day, you'll burn 455 calories, which is only about 0.13 pounds of adipose tissue (fat) or just two ounces.

Can you lose 15 pounds walking?

Yes, walking can help you lose weight but how far and how often, that is the real question. If you are a walker, you'll lose weight even more. If you often have an opportunity to walk down the store or the park, that would be great. It would be even better if you use stairs instead of the elevator. Try to use the stairs as much as you can.

How much weight will you lose if you walked 3 mile every day?

12,000 steps is an average of 6 miles, depending on your stride length. For every 2000 steps (mile) you burn approximately 100 calories. This answer depends on how many steps you were taking before you wanted to lose weight. (If you were already walking 10,000 steps a day you'll only burn 100 extra calories a day and it will take you a month to lose one pound). If you are walking 12,000 extra steps per day, you will burn an extra 600 calories per day and lose a pound about every 6 days.
