I recently started to walk about 3 miles atleast once a day. My dog ( great dane) keeps me at a pretty brisk pace. will this help me to lose weight all over or should i be going at my orbitrac as well?...

3 miles is more than enough to lose weight! I lost about 5 pounds a month without changing my diet and just walking a mile a day.

This is very encouraging. I just started walking 4 miles a day. That's the mark I set for myself and if I still have energy I do more. I try to go at a brisk pace to get my heart rate up and some laps I jog the straight and walk the curve. I'm looking forward to seeing results. I've been improving my eating habits so hopefully I can stay disciplined.
