Here is the answer to this question. In order to lose weight, you have to subtract calories. Safe weight loss is 1-2 lbs/week, so in order to lose 1 lb/week, you'd have to drop 500 calories from your BMR each day (1 lb is equal to 3500 calories, so 500 calories X 7 days = 3500 calories or 1 lb).

Sorry, but no. Jogging for 1 hour will burn more calories than walking for 1 hour. Why don't you try a 1 hour session of 5 minutes walking then 5 minutes jogging, 5 min walk then 5 min jog etc. If it's too hard try 6 min walk 4 min jog. If it's easy increase to 4 min walk 6 min jog. Eventually you will get to 9 min jog 1 min walk and maybe then 60 minutes solid jogging. You get the idea.
