It depends on how many calories your body burns (this is your BMR, there are lots of sites that calculate it for you, Google it) in a day vs. how many you eat. You need to burn 3,500 calories to lose one pound. If you burn an extra 500 calories a day, you'll lose 1 pound a week, so you'll lose 20 pounds in 2 months. It's okay to aim to lose 1-2 pounds a week... but any more than that is unhealthy and you'll pay for it in long run. Also, don't cut your calories below 1200 a day.

Depends on your calorie intake and the intensity of your walk. Assuming you're a constant weight now (your calorie intake is in equilibrium with your expenditure) and you briskly walk 3 mph very uphill for an hour, you'll burn roughly 600 or so calories extra per day. Assuming you don't compensate by eating more, and do this every day, you'll burn a pound about every 5 days, and reach your goal in about 6 months, ~180 days. Stay strong and dedicated.

What is the fastest diet to lose ten pounds?
The best way to lose ten pounds is to calculate, based on one's current body weight, how many calories are required to maintain that weight. A pound of weight is 3500 calories. If the calorie intake is reduced by 500 calories each day, a pound will be lost in seven days (one week). If only a ten pound weight loss is desired, it is unlikely that the individual would want to drop 1000 calories per day from the usual intake, so it would probably take ten weeks to lose the last ten pounds, which is much more difficult than losing the first 10 pounds of a significant amount of weight.
