You're Misjudging How Many Calories You're Actually Burning

Since walking isn't a high-intensity workout, you're not burning as many calories as you would with other exercises, such as running. How many calories you need to lose weight is unique to each individual, so be careful not to overeat just because you worked out. While you are burning calories by walking, it's easy to think the amount is greater than it is. "Creating a calorie deficit through nutrition and exercise will lead to weight loss," Kelly said.
