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.

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.

How much weight do i lose walking 1 mile a day?

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.


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.
