Every day Shayne...start slow...for 10 minutes. Sounds like nothing but the cumulative effect is what you're after. Long term. Every day isn't too much. Folks used to walk everywhere...the species thrives on it!

10 every day for 2 wks. Bump up in 2 minute increments each following week...until you reach 30.

That's to prevent ant undue shock or dismay. Slowly easing into it encourages it to become a habit...by the time 30 min is reached you'll be conditioned so it won't be tough.

walking pace starting should be 2/3 mph...manageable right? Say by week five or six you begin increasing to 5.

5 mph at 30 minutes per day will lose weight over a few months. It'll take some time is all. when you reach that stage you may find yourself willing to push yourself with the incline option if you have it. At this stage you can experiment with times speed incline...and you won't need any more advice...you'll be a walker.

Decent comf. sneaks recommended...not too tight but not too loose. Try higher topped sneaks to start for more ankle support. Don't be dismayed if your feet bug you starting out. Any footwear that's comfortable will do if thats what it takes. Experiment if you have to...not a hard thing.

10 minutes...comfortable pace...2 wks solid to start. you can do that. I'm with you all the way on this Shayne. Those are my basic recommendations...others will add theirs. Bottom line...to prevent apathy etc. Start slow...consistant...build up very gradually...have patience...envision 6 months.

Holler if you want to chat or ask particulars...I walk a bit. Great news...best wishes.
