How many steps a day should I walk to lose weight?

There is nothing magic about 10,000. Research shows meaningful health benefits at around 7,000 to 8,000 steps a day, and more steps help fat loss simply by increasing the energy you use without making you hungrier or more tired.

Check your current average for a week, then add 1,000 to 2,000 steps a day and hold that. Small, steady increases are easier to maintain than a dramatic jump.
