20 reports from women who tried Walking Programme
I started Walking Programme after dealing with weight creeping up despite eating well for months. By week 3 I noticed I slept better for the first time in months. At 8 weeks, most of my symptoms had improved considerably. I wish I'd started sooner.
I tried Walking Programme for weight gain around the middle but the results were mixed. I felt a bit more like myself, but it didn't hold up long-term. It might work for others but was modest for me.
My friend who'd been through similar suggested Walking Programme for my bloating and fluid retention. It took about 2 weeks to notice anything, but by week 8 I was sleeping through the night. I'm glad I tried it.
Started Walking Programme alongside bloating and fluid retention management. Week 4: the worst of the symptoms eased. Week 12: my quality of life improved dramatically. I'd recommend discussing it with your GP.
Walking Programme helped somewhat with my stubborn belly fat — sleep got better, though the brain fog lingered. Still deciding whether to continue.
