Yep i agree, i think most would be surprised to find that walking doesn't burn anywhere near the amount of energy that they expect. Trouble with walking is that the body is used to it, its a large part of what we do every day, so unless you really push it, and get huffing and puffing, the body considers it normal. The key to any exercise is pushing it a bit, have to get out of that comfort zone, lets face it if the body is totally comfortable, then exercise isn't really happening.
Running or jogging is great for getting weight off and cardio fitness, but there is the impact side of it to consider. What about trying cycling? Unless you fall off it should be low impact! or swimming?
