I walk everyday around the neighborhood at a 4 mph pace for at least an hour. If not I walk for an hour same pace on the treadmill with the incline at 9 degrees. I watch Food Network while Im doing this.

I am going to start trying to get two hours in even if I have to break it up morning and evening.

When you feel up to it... try this: Couch To 5K running plan. I walked a lot as well, and hit a plateau as far as the weight loss goes, then started this plan. I'm finishing up week 7 this evening, and the pounds have started to come off again. I had never been much of a runner, but now I kinda look forward to it. Especially with the nice weather lately. And everytime I got to a day and just didn't think I could do it, I've been able to. Some are worse than others, but always managed to finish.

here's a good treadmill workout if anyone is interested:

incline speed time
1.0 3.0 1-3 min
3.0 4.0 3-7
5.0 3.5 7-11
7.0 4.0 11-15
8.0 3.3 15-19
9.0 3.8 19-23
10.0 3.0 23-27
0 3.0 27-30

it was spaced out all nice when i typed it but when i posted it the spaces went away.
