Do you lose more weight running or walking?

* It depends what your starting weight is - if you are overweight and need to lose a lot of weight, walking is better, but if you are in a healthy weight range and only want to shave off a few pounds running is better. * Running (cardio exercise) is very good if you are trying to lose weight. However, it is very hard on your body. Cardio walking to lose weight is also very good and it is much easier on your body than running or jogging. Moreover, walking is sustainable long term.
