Newbie!!! :) question about the 20 minute walk

[blue31]

Hi there everyone,

On my 5th day of attack phase today and not been bad at all infact no where near as hard as I thought it would be BUT..... Does everyone do the 20 minute walk everyday? I have been doing so but today with finishing work late I haven't been do you this will affect my weigh In tomorrow? I'm a little worried now

Many thanks

PS...Keep up the good word this forum is very informative and has helped me loads

It's best to do the walk as much as possible. I try make up for it if I miss it one day. For example I've been under the weather the last few days and don't feel I did enough exercise so today, now that I'm feeling better, I did 1hour on the crosstrainer.

Hope that helps...

Many thanks feel really gutted that I didn't go today now but don't really feel safe walking late at night. Will do 1 hour tomorrow to put things right.

Many thanks for your help

I don't do them if the weather is bad and I def do not lose any weight on those days.

However, if I don't have time to go, I count shopping around town as a 20 min walk as I may be out walking between stores which are spread about town for a couple of hours!

The idea is to introduce (for those of us who don't usually move far from the car/train/bus etc) a regular physical activity and walking is the easiest. Obviously when the weather is bad, we can replace it with perhaps an exercise video or something else.

It's now become such a part of my life that I get up an hour early than I need for work and I walk there every day (provided it's not raining - I don't do rain!).

Good luck
