Ans: Hey Avinash. Just walking will not help you to lose fat. You have to add strength training as well to your exercise routine and the most important part is nutrition plan; You have to change your eating habits. Best way to do it is reduce carbohydrates intake and add protein sources in your every meal.

Ans: Your aim should be to increase muscle mass and lower body fat. You should look at inch loss rather than your weight per se. Weight loss may reach a plateau but your exercises must include weight training which will help increase lean mass. Ensure consumption of low fat high protein foods. Have regular high fiber low carbohydrate meals within your requirements. .

Ans: It is perfectly normal.

Ans: I need to know ur height and also waist to Hip ratio will be important factor, to understand whether ur weight is healthy!

Ans: Dear Mr. Madhusudan. Thank you for your question. It's great to hear that you're committed to your health by walking 40 minutes every morning. To enhance your weight loss efforts, I recommend incorporating resistance training into your routine in addition to your regular walking. While walking is beneficial for cardiovascular health, resistance training is more effective for burning calories, building muscle, and improving overall fitness. Apart from this aim to create a calorie deficit by consuming fewer calories than you burn, which is crucial for weight loss. Include high-quality protein sources in your diet, such as lean meats, fish, eggs, legumes, and low-fat dairy. Protein helps in maintaining muscle mass and keeps you full longer.
