I lost 40kg walking one hour a day over the last 3 years. Some people don't recognise me.

Don't get yourself into a state where you need to lose 40kg. If you do, and lose the weight, you will have excess skin.

I like my new healthy self but actions have consequences.

Good on you! Something I preach to my children is that success comes from showing up every day to do a little and not from a sudden burst of a lot. Well done.

I turn 50 this year and have committed to doing 50,000 pushups before 2024. It sounds like a lot, but after the first month, doing 200-300 a day isn't really that difficult (when broken up into smaller sets). Honestly, it's a LOT more of a mental challenge than a physical challenge.

It's all about showing up every day.

Kudos on the progress! Curious what got you to start walking for that long?

Covid. I read the data, fat equals higher risk. While I am not afraid of death, neither do I want to speed it up.

I think one hour a day of walk is not even a bare minimum if you don't do any other exercises or physical work

I think you'd be surprised. A solid hour of walking goes a long way.
